LAMENTABLE DEATH THROUGH WANT.

Satnrday night, about ten o'clock, an awful sensation
was excited in the neighbourhood of Green Arbour..
court, Old Bailey, by the awfully sudden death of
Charles Leatherborough, aged 30, a distressed prin'er,
whose death is attributed to want of proper tsouri.h-
ment, Bcc. The deceased, it appears, had been for a
considerable time one of employment, and was driven
to the most abject necessity, and was obliged, with his
Wife and family of lour helpless children, to take a
lodging of a miserable description, in the garret of No.
22, Green Arbour-court, where they have been living
for some time past, without even the common necescaties
of life; and the trifling sum of 2s. per week for their
wie ched apartment they were unable to pay, although
the deceased exercised the utmost perseverance to get
work to no purpose, and he and his family were fre-
quently dependant upon their neighbours, who could
ill afford it, for a scanty subsistence. Saturday morn-
ing the unfortunate man arose from his straw (having
no bed to lay upon), in a heart-broken and melancholy
condition, and quitted home without breakfast to seek
for work, and to provide for the wants of his hungry
children. He remained Out during the whole of the day,'
And during his perambulation he met *ith several whose
invitations 44 to chi wete accepted by deceased,whose
stomach being in a weak state from the walk of pfoper
bourishmeht,the operatiqn of the spirits he partook of pro-
duced ideadly sickniss, the deceased turned pale, while
cold perspiration dropped from his forehead. and he was:
supported to his residence in a weak condition, and on
entering the ro. in he groaned and instantly expired in
the midst of his unh sppy farpily, whose cries were loud
and pitiable. The appearanceof the room in itself was
sufficient to phew the &suet s and misery in which the
olifoetunate man and his family Isere obliged to live
Tharewaks scarcely a bit of furniture. or any thing tend-
ing to domestic comfort in the place. and there being
9,40 re 401c3.1, the rentaiqo the doceaseJ were
404 out onAlakkin"A corner of the room where th•
taps ebildreft, imp Ken in almost a scats* nudity.
