Catherine Herring, of 24, Martha-street, Miss

SHOCKING ACCIDENT. —An Ingt►isition was
taken yesterday at Guy' s Hospital on tie body of
Thomas Collett, about 40 yea's of age, who died
from the effect of the late explosion in Westmin-
ster-road. itilr. Johnson Monckton, surgeon, of
Guy's Hospital, deposed, that the deceased was
brought there on Theasday evening, the 20th inst.
about six o'clock, dreadfully- burnt over his head,
face, arms, chest, and other parsts of the body ;
the usual remedies were applied nntil Wednesday
morning, about six o'clock, when he died ; his
death was occasioned by the burning.—Wm. Ran-
die, servant to Mr..A•lortratn, Westminster-road,
manufacturer of fire-works,stated, that on Thurs-
day evening, the 20,11 instant, l►e left the de-
ceased and two others in the workshop whet e the
fire-works were manufactured. One of them was
pounding saltpetre, another was charging rockets,
and the deceased was asleep in the sau►e room►
about half an hour afterwards he was at
Vauxhall Gardens, and was there informed _that
his master's shop was on fire ; there were about
30lbs. weight of guhpoweier on the premises, the
whole of which bail exploded; witness was the
last person who saw the deceased and the other
persons who are injured. The Jury said it was
impossible to co►ue to a satisfactory cor►clnsion
how the explosion was caused without better evi-
dence. The Coroner inquired Of the Surgeon
it it was possible to take. a deposition from the
deceased's fellow•sufferers (John Nash, a boy,
and James Wigzell), who are in the Hospital.—
The Coroner was informed that the-boy, Nash,
was in such a state that he could not aiticulate,
his face being burnt too horrid to describe. Wig-
zell was able to speak : but it was impossible! to
administer an oath to him, his hands being bound
up with cloths. Ile was able to say, that the
explosion was accidental, caused by Nash charg-
ing a rocket, which he rammed down with a stick
so excessively hard and quick that the friction pfo-
duced the explosion, which communicated to the
powder and fire-wot ks, and set the building on
tire." The Jury were present in the ward when
Wigzell made the above statement, and, having
returned to the Committee-room, immediately
gave a verdict of—Accidental Death.

SUR:MR.—Yesterday, Mr. ROBINSON, of Bear-
lane, St. Saviour's, put a period to his existence,

served that be had quitted his bed. Site then en-
deavoured to open the door, but finding something
press forcibly against it she became alarmed nod
called ill the neighbours. The unfortunate
was found suspended by his neck with a handker-
chief from a clothes-peg, one knee was resting ou
the top of a but eau bedstead, and the foot of the
other leg upon a chair
