SHOCKING OCCITRRENCE -FIVE MEN
SMOTHERED IN A GIN V.T.

WORCESTER, SEPT. 27.
A painful accident has occurred at Williams's distillery,
close to the river Severn, here. Yesterday afternoon, one
of the vats used to pass the spirit or waste through, and
which was capable of holding from ten to fifteen thousand
gallons of liquor, was empty, and preparations were being
made for cleaning it. The excise supervisor, Mr. Green,
got into the vat between three and four o'clock in the
afternoon, and he directed some water to be pumped into
it. Consequently about 1,000 gallons were pumped in,
and the water was well stirred in the vessel; after which
it was ran off. About half an hour after the water had
run off one of the workmen, named John Drew, ascended
the ladder and got into the vat for the purpose of cleansing
it. Another workman, a stillman, named Henry Bough,
was following, when he saw Drew fall to the bottom of the
vat. Not suspecting the cause, he hastened forward to
help Drew, and himself fell to the botiom of the vat.
Richard Powell and Henry With followed, and they
shared the same fate. 111 were suffocated immediately on
entering the vat. Andrew Chambers, another workman,
was about to follow, and had partially entered the hole
through which access was had to the vat, when he detected
a strong smell of carbonic acid gas, and retreated. A fifth
man, however, named James Rogers, insisted on entering,
and he, too, was sacrificed.

No time was now lost in sending for medical aid, and
two surgeons, Mr. H. Hill and Mr. Budd, were soon on
the spot. In the meantime axes wore brought, and two
holes were cut in the sides of the vat near the bottom. A
largo pair of blacksmith's bellows was also brought, and
air was blown into the vat. As soon as it was safe a man
was let down into the vat with a rope, and one by one the
poor fellows were extricated. A vein was opened in each,
and a slight flow of blood followed ; the prescribed means
were taken, but there were no symptoms of returning life.
The appearance of the bodies was that usual in suffocation.
The ears, eyes, and neck were blue, and the bodies, when
placed together, presented a fearful spectacle. The names
of the men were as follows :
John Drew, 'Millman, aged 50. This man had worked
on the premises nearly 20 years, and leaves a widow and
five children.

Henry Bough, aged 30, stillman ; leaves a widow and
two children.

Richard Powell, 60 ; had worked at the place more than
30 years. He leaves a widow and two children.
Henry Witt% 40, also an old servant; leaves a widow
and three children.
James Rogers, labourer; leaves a widow and five or six
children.

The inquest was commenced this afterncon, at two
o clock, at the Royal George Inn, near the works, before R.
T. Rea, Esq., coroner, and was adjourned to Tuesday next.
