ring at a hntife in Well-gate buildings, and leafed
an a wheel chair, while the ferrant went to the
4IAor, either to knock or deliver a mdfage by her
di: eery n, the chair, which had been Itationary,
•vliLn the krv.int left it, by fome means or other
tan back, and, upfetting off the pavement, this un-
fortunate lady wa, Rtecipitated into the road way ;

jwel ,tire, one of the fore wheels went over her
herd in An initant, and her almoll immediate death

It appears that no blame whatever can be at-.
taclied to ally party, in this lament:rid:: affair ;
