soap and candle manufactory of Messrs. NW. Berchs
and khunpson. being the last premises on the lee
hand sib of Hunts Bank, and built upon the rock
which rises ebove the river Irwell, gave way, with
tremendous Mash; it appearing that the continual
action of the waleir having undermined the rock, and
rendered it no longh,a supportable foundation for the
erections on it. The comequence was, that Robinson
and four of his children state precipitated into the rit
Ter ; three of the Salter were taken-4Q alive fr an their
bed, which had settled upon the rubbishaallen into the
water, two of whom were conveyed lo the Lafirmui
much bruised. The father, however, and his oldest
daughter, met with a fatal doom. The youngest,citiki
v was eating its breakfast, and feeling *floor shake,
ran out into the street, with the pot in his hand. Tim
mother of this unfortunate family, who is in Wa-341!
vanced state of pregnancy, WAS 01 her return (ion..,
the baket's with bread, and was within a very fe*
yards of her home when the catastrophe (scathed.

and his son-in-law, were gone to work. and his daugls. •
ter had left the premises to procure milk for breaktast.
In the soap-works, Mr. William Hall, the foreman,
having the ill fate to be in that part of the building
which gave way, also perished ; he was immediately
after taken out of the water, having his skull and one
leg dreadfully fractured ; be, with Mr. Birch, who
had providentially left that part of the premises but
one minute before, were the only persons then on the
works. He was a worthy man, and mach respected
by his employers, and has left a widow aid one child
their I;oosstesbia- Tti. toy Asa
girl at the InfirmAry are both alive; the boy's skull
was badly fractured ; he has undergone the °Pen'
lion of irepanning, and is as well &s can be expected
there are also hopes of the girl's recovery. The
oldest daughter has been taken frem under the rocks
very much crushed and dead. The corpse of the 54'
Cher is not yet found.
