BOAT ACCIDENT AT LYTHAM-INQUEST•

-
It is now quite certain that five persons have loot
their lives by the accident on the Sands Bank, wituate
between Lytham and Southport, on Sunday night;
Their names are T. Green, J. Morrow, R. Forshaw,
Holden, and A. Whittle. Up to Sunday night only ohe
body, that of Holden, had been found ; but yesterd4
Afternoon a jacket worn by Morrow at the time of the
casualty was washed ashore on the beach at Lytbah3.
The boat has not been raised, but at present remains oh;
bedded in sand. An attempt will be made to get her
off to-day. On Tuesday night the inquest was held °Il
the body of Holden, at the Talbot Inn, Lytham, by hi t
&lyres, coroner. Four witnesses were examined.
Alice .Holden said the deceased, Joan Holden, 01/e
her husband, and left Preston for Blackpool, on Bath!'
day afternoon, to return the following day. He was

weaver, and was twenty-three years of age.
Mr. John Pearson, landlord of the Coffee-house I°l3'
Marton, near Blackpool, said the deceased John 1:101dev)
accompanied by three other men, went to his house fa
Saturday night, and staid there until sight o'clock
following morning, when they left to take the Os"
which they said was lying in charge of a comptinieib
near the Lytham Lighthou,e. They did not take Of
drink with them. Witness had not seen them since'
John Bonny, fisherman,.proved finding the boat e?:
taining the body of Holden, on a sand-back, about nos;
o'clock on Monday morning. He did nt,t find any ethea
body. The boat's mast was broken in the centre, eu
consequently she could not have been upset by a st°,_r°3at
He believed the accident had been caused by the Pe-
coming in contact with one of the flukes of her anel3ohr,
by which means her bottom had been stove in, and B",,:
,
filled and sunk. This was only a supposition, made fr":r
the fact of the boat being at 'present lying on "-
anchor.
Alice Gabutt, the wife of a weaver at Blackburn,clto
posed to going down by the boat with the decease'
Lytham on Saturday, and to there being five rasp -
board at the time. 110
This being the whole of the evidence, the inquiq
adjourned till Friday, Oct. 2 ; the jury, however, ertbe
be called together before that time, in case any of oe
missing bodies are found. It is believed that theYoo
washed out to sea. Green has left a widow whittle
children ; Morrow a widow and two. children ;
a widow and childi; Holden a widow and child; -
'haw was a singleiram
