SHOCKING DEATH OF A CHILD.—On Friday night
was the son of a coach proprietor's"
he was left playing in the room
whilst his mother was preparing dinner. A large saucepan of boil-
m,TheolimssesyS.iromonnd,.
ing liquid was left on the floor before the fire grate, and as the de-
ceased was passing across the room in play he fell backwards into
the scalding liquid. He was pulled out by his father, who called in
a surgeon, but the injuries were so extensive that it was deemed ne-
cessary to convey him to the above hospital, where he died on Wed-
nesday evening. The jury returned a verdict of "Accidental death."
Two CHILDREN BURNED TO DEATH.—Late onFriday
Mr. J. Payne held two inquests in the Boardroom of St. Thomas's
Hospital, on the bodies of children who had been burned to death.
The first case was respecting the death of Smith Pavett, aged seven
years, of White's Cottages, Waterside, Wandsworth. The deceased
was the daughter of a labourer, and on Monday morning last, dur-
ing the temporary absence of an elder sister, she made an effort to
reach some article from the mantel-shelf, when her clothing sud-
denly ignited, and before the flames were extinguished the deceased
was nearly burned to a cinder. She was removed to the hospital,
where death terminated her sufferings on Wednesday morning last.—
The second Inquiry was on the body of Eliza Dawson, aged six years,
whose friends reside at No. 6, .Adam-street, New Kent-road. On
Tuesday morning last the deceased was amusing herself by playing
with a lighted piece of candle, and set fire to her clothes. She was
removed to the hospital, where she died on Thursday from the effects
of the burns. The jury returned a verdict in each case of " Acci-
dental Death."
SERIOUS FALL FROM A WINDOW.—OS Friday morn-
ng a distressing accident took place in South-street, Lock's-fielis,
*alworth, to a boy, named John Anderson, aged three and a half
years, which it is feared will terminate fatally. The child was lean-
ing out of the window, flying a few pigeons from a small platform
erected outslee, when a portion of the woodwork suddenly gave way,
and precipitated him, from a height of thirty feet, into the yard. He
was picked up by one of the lodgers, bleeding from the eyes, nose,
and mouth, and quite insensible. Me was taken to Guy's Hospital,
where he was found to have sustained some serious injury to the
spine, and concussion of the brain. He lies in a hopeless state.
