On 'Tuesday se'nnight, a little before ten o'clock,
a fire broke out in a dwelling.hmis-c, of/ two rene_
ments, occupied by Tho: Funnel!, cooper, and John
Roberts, litbourer, at Chiddingly, Sussex,which burnt
with such fury, thAt it was, with great cbffic'ulty the
two families, consisting of eleven umsons,,could
escape from the devouring element with their lives.
Mrs. Funnel, who had lain in julst three weeks,'
(pitted the preniises in her shift and under.po:ic.uat
only, and was followed by bet sister, with th« in-
fant, and another little girl, in' the sank almost nal:ed
state. Mrs..Robert4, wAo kept a little school, and
four girls,,iodgers, were taken froni.their beds only
a kw miAtes benne the burning rafters lett In
they.however all reached a neighbouring- cottage,
where they were humanely received and taken cafe
of. Owing to a brisk wind from the North.usti
the flames were communicated to a barn, used as a
eooper's.shop, by Funnel!, containing a great num-
ber of hoops, staves, and other inflammable mate.
rials,.and to a stack of hay, all of, which, except a
part of the hoops, were entirely consumed. A eow,
a fat hog, and a pig, were luckily liberated from
the barn without injury.
