The deceased went to bed at the house of Mr. Edmund FOLEY, licensed Spirit Dealer, and about two o'clock Mr. John CANTY was heard to say, "Men, get up and don't be stifled in your beds"- the house was on fire. Some escaped through the windows, and some came down the stairs and got out of the back door, and so it happened that all escaped with their lives except the above mentioned whose bodies were burnt almost to a cinder. Ellen FOLEY, infant child of Edmund FOLEY was, in the hurry, left in the bed by the servant girls and perished. John CANTY went back after being safe to save the child.
