Thank you for your trouble - it seems that another person has sent a more plausible family - one which includes a Lavinia. Clara and Frank had a daughter Clara Lavinia. Thank you - good luck in your research, Betty ---- Liz <e.newbery@btinternet.com> wrote: > There are no Clara MALLETTs on the Cornwall OPC site, there is one born in Suffolk 1833 but it looks as though her mother could be a widow, her name is Sarah and there is no father around. Other children in this family appear to be Harriett, Fanny and William. As they are all born before registration began so you are then reliant on the LDS site which shows a possible birth for her on 14 OCT 1832 and baptism 17 DEC 1833 with father George and mother Sarah at St Mary Tower, Ipswich, Suffolk. They seem to have moved around Suffolk as a Fanny was bpt 28 OCT 1830 Halesworth, Suffolk. Clara seems to have disappeared by 1851 and I checked for a marriage although that would be a bit too early! and no death either.

I am searching for members of the MALLET family, particularly Clara Teresa MALLET who went to California at some point before she married my cousin, Francis John (Frank) GARESCHE in the mid 1850s. She was probably born in the 1830s in Cornwall. She may have had a father or brother named George because one of their sons was George Henry and those names had not been used in the GARESCHE family before that. I did find a Geo MALLET, age 46 (wife, Mary) in Penryn, Cornwall, ENGLAND in the 1851 England Census. There is also a son in that household named Alfred and Clara and Frank also had a son named Alfred. In 1875 the GARESCHE family lived in Victoria, BC, CANADA - Frank was a Wells Fargo agent and he was taking money to San Francisco. The ship he was on, "The Pacific," was lost at sea and he did not survive the accident. The newspaper said that at that time Clara was visiting family in England with her baby, Florence, the last of their 12 children, if this information helps. Does anyone know any MALLETS or is anyone researching that family? Or can you suggest any way for me to find out about them? What I really need is Clara's full date and place of birth as well as the full date and place of their marriage in CA (I think San Francisco c 1855, but most of the records seem to have been lost in the earthquake). Thank you in advance, Betty Garesch?

Clara seems to have disappeared by 1851 and I checked for a marriage although that would be a bit too early! and no death either.

Dear Bill, This looks like the right family, even if they are aunt and uncle of the Clara I am researching, because she and Frank named one of their daughters Clara Lavinia! Are these people related to you? My research so far has been through the Garesché side, so I felt it was time to see if there were any MALLETS who were related to her. Thank you very much for sharing this information!

I know very little about them, mainly information shared with me a long time ago. Here's a summary of my understanding: John MALLETT (b.1796 Penryn) m. Harriet COLLINGS (b.ca.1799 Penryn) Henry Collings MALLETT (b.1818 Penryn) m.1837 St. Gluvias, Sarah Plomer NICHOLAS (b.ca.1815) John William MALLETT (b.1823 Penryn) George MALLETT (b.1826 Penryn) Harriet MALLETT (b.1826 Penryn) Lavinia MALLETT (b.1830 Penryn) George MALLETT (b.ca.1835 Penryn) Mary Ann MALLETT (b.1832) Henrietta Holland Pellew MALLETT (b.ca.1838) Clara Holland MALLETT (birth year unknown) John MALLETT was a butcher living with his family at Lower Street, Penryn at the 1841 Census. The household consisted of John (45), Harriett (45), Harriett (15), Mary (7), and Henrietta (4). Also present was Rebecca Rickard (25). All were born "in county." Harriett MALLETT (52, born Penryn, butcher) and family remained at Lower Street, Penryn at the 1851 Census. John was absent, but Harriett's status was shown as married (not widowed). With her were daughters Harriett (27), Mary Ann (16), and Henrietta (13), all born at Penryn and all described as butcher's assistants. The eldest son Henry and wife applied for free passage to South Australia and emigrated by the vessel "Trusty" in 1837. Henry's brother John, aged 15½, accompanied the couple. Ironically, the child about whom I know the least is daughter Clara. She doesn't have Teresa as a middle name, but she may well have been born during the 1830s. I was told that she was baptized at Penzance in 1852, but I don't know specifically when and where. You'll note that the roster of children includes two sons named George, the second probably a "replacement" for the first. Given the fact that the name Clara MALLET(T) is not at all common, you may want to do some further checking. If this Clara is not the right woman, she may well be from somewhere nearby on the MALLET(T) family tree. Good luck with your search!

Dear List, I am new to this list, so please bear with me. I am searching for members of the MALLET family, particularly Clara Teresa MALLET who went to California at some point before she married my cousin, Francis John (Frank) GARESCHE in the mid 1850s. She was probably born in the 1830s in Cornwall.

I did find a Geo MALLET, age 46 (wife, Mary) in Penryn, Cornwall, ENGLAND in the 1851 England Census. There is also a son in that household named Alfred and Clara and Frank also had a son named Alfred. In 1875 the GARESCHE family lived in Victoria, BC, CANADA - Frank was a Wells Fargo agent and he was taking money to San Francisco. The ship he was on, "The Pacific," was lost at sea and he did not survive the accident. The newspaper said that at that time Clara was visiting family in England with her baby, Florence, the last of their 12 children, if this information helps. Does anyone know any MALLETS or is anyone researching that family? Or can you suggest any way for me to find out about them? What I really need is Clara's full date and place of birth as well as the full date and place of their marriage in CA (I think San Francisco c 1855, but most of the records seem to have been lost in the earthquake).

Hi Jack, You may want to take a look at Carnarthen Moor - it's a current place, about 3 miles from Illogan itself. http://maps.google.ca/maps?hl=en&tab=wl People in the 1841 census listed as living at Carnarthen Moor were enumerated right after those at Tregajorran, which is on the Google map above about 3/4 of a mile from Carnarthen Moor.

This is a sample of the type of articles which filled the newspaper - and which are often too long for us to transcribe fully. Thanks to Warren Job, this is the entire piece, full of elegant style and enthusiasm. (I still think the writers were paid by the word....) Please, enjoy! Julia ............................................................................................... THE WEST BRITON AND CORNWALL ADVERTISER transcribed by Warren Job Date....18th July 1851... ( clipping from newspaper...) Presentation of Plate to the Rev. G.N. Treweeke, of Illogan. In consequence of the removal of the Rev. G. N. Treweeke, from this parish, where, with his lately deceased father, and the other members of his family, he had for years lived in the enjoyment of the kindliest good-will on the part of the inhabitants, it was determined by several of the parishioners to request his acceptance of a testimonial of their respect and esteem. This intention was very readily adopted by all to whom it was made known; and the result was a subscription which enabled the committee to purchase a handsome silver goblet and salver, which were presented to Mr. Treweeke, on Tuesday last. At three o'clock, a respectable party of parishioners, and one or two visitors from other places, partook of an excellent and very liberal dinner, the Basset Arms, Pool. Mr Charles Reynolds, of Trevenson, had engaged to preside; but was deprived of that pleasure by a severe attack of tie doloureux. Mr Burgess of Trengove, one of the oldest parishioners, was unanimously called to the chair, in the regretted absence of Mr. Reynolds. On his right was the Rev. J. G. Wulff, the present rector of Illogan, and on his left the guest of the day, the Rev. G. N. Treweeke, Mr. S. Serpell, one of the Church-wardens was Vice President. The company was less numerous than it would have been but for the "Great Exhibition" and Praze fair. After the removal of the cloth, the usual loyal and patriotic toasts were drunk. The Chairman then rose, and, after expressing his regret at the absence of the appointed Chairman, through illness, adverted to the occasion of the meeting and to the serious loss the parish of Illogan had sustained by the death of their late worthy Rector, and by the removal of his esteemed family from a parish where they had for years been beloved by all its inhabitants. The loss of such a family from the parish would be severely felt; for never did they fail to relieve any who were in want, either of food or raiment. He (the Chairman) lamented that some one more able than himself was not present to do justice to their late Rector's merits. For himself, he felt an utter want of words to express one half the respect he felt for that gentlemen's qualities in everyone position he filled whether as a member of society, a husband, a father, a magistrate, a clergyman; in every relation of life he had won the deserved esteem of all around him; and he (Mr. Burgess) had heard him say that for twenty-five years of his residence there, he had never received an insulting expression from any one of his parishioners. That fact, in itself, spoke volumes in proof of the respect universally felt towards him (hear); and, as he had already said, it any stood in need, either of food or raiment, he was always ready with his own assistance and also to carry out the benevolent wishes of a noble Lady of the neighbourhood. He would propose, that they drink "the memory of their late much-lamented Rector. "- The toast was drunk in silence. The plate intended for presentation to the son of the late Rector was now placed on the table. It consisted of a handsome silver goblet and salver, neatly chased; each piece bearing the following inscription:- PRESENTED BY The Parishioners of Illogan, TO THE REV. GEORGE NAPLETON TREWEEKE, As a mark of their high respect and esteem. July 15th, 1851. The Chairman, in terms of respect and affectionate regard, proposed the health of the Rev. G. N. Treweeke, remarking concerning the reverend gentleman, that he was a proof that where there were good fathers and good mothers, there would be generally found good and well-trained children. He felt sure that Mr. Treweeke did not leave that parish without regret; but he felt confident too, that wherever he went, he would gain friends by pursuing the same course of conduct as his lamented father had in that parish - visiting and sympathizing with his parishioners , and consoling them under any distress or affliction. The Chairman, with much feeling, alluded to the estimable qualities of the other members of the Treweeke family, and concluded by proposing "health and happiness to Mr. George Treweeke," -The toast was drunk with cheers, and with manifestations of cordial feeling. The Chairman avowing his utter inability to express himself suitably to the occasion, briefly, but with much feeling, presented to Mr. George Treweeke, the goblet and salver, a testimonial of his late parishioners' esteem and respect. The Rev. G. N. Treweeke then rose amid the hearty cheers of the company, and with much emotion, returned thanks:- My very kind friends and neighbours; words would altogether fail me if I were to attempt to express my feelings on this occasion. You must know that the heart sometimes gets too full to allow the tongue to utter what it otherwise would; such is my case, I do assure you, at the present moment. And how should it be otherwise ? It has always been with sincere and very great pleasure that I have met the Illogan farmers and other inhabitants of the parish whenever an opportunity for so doing has occurred. But, on the present occasion, my pleasure is greatly damped; for I cannot but feel that this is the last time - (the Reverend gentlemen was unable to proceed for some moments) - that I shall have the opportunity of meeting you as your fellow-parishioner, as I have been for the last twenty-nine years. During the whole of that time -, at least, as long as I can remember - I and the rest of my family have always experienced the greatest kindness and civility from all the parishioners of Illogan. (Hear). It is not very long ago that one, whose memory has just been drunk, told me that in all the time he had lived in this parish there was not a single day on which he could look back with regret. (Hear). For the rest of my family, they feel I assure you, in the same way towards you: and I take this opportunity of publicly thanking you, and , through you, the whole of the parishioners of Illogan, for the continual kindness, respect, and civility that have always been shown to us. Long will it be remembered by us; in whatever part of the country any of our family may hereafter settle, depend on it, the remembrance of the happy years we spent in Illogan, and of the very great kindness we have ever received from the inhabitants of the parish, will be cherished by us. (Applause) But you have this day added another mark of you kindness to me individually, in conferring on me this beautiful and handsome present. From my heart I thank you for it; and that I am afraid, is all the return I can now make you. Looking back on the few years I have been with you, as your clergyman, I cannot bring in mind anything done by me that could merit such a token of your approbation and kindness. But I accept it with the greatest pleasure, and with pride, that I am enabled to carry into another parish a token of the respect and kindness ever shown me by the parish I am now about to leave. I take it with me to another parish, as a proof that I have the good wishes and the kind feelings of those I have left behind me: and. wherever I may be called to labour, God grant that my efforts may be greater than they have been with you. I cannot say much more to you, gentlemen, but that I hope and pray God may bless you and yours. That He may shower down on you, your families, and friends and on all in the parish of Illogan, His best blessings, is my most sincere and earnest prayer. I beg once more to thank you for your kindness.- (The reverend gentleman resumed his seat, amid expressions of sympathy and good feeling.) Mr. Hichens, of Tregea, said he had leave of the chair to propose a toast. He should have been glad if some one more competent than himself had undertaken the duty; but no one could do so with better feelings than himself. In one respect he was fortunate in the toast he ventured to propose; as he was sure the health of any lady proposed here would not fail to be cordially received. But when he mentioned the lady whose health he was about to propose, he was confident his proposition would be most heartily responded to. That lady was the worthy mother of their guest - Mrs Treweeke. (Applause) The chairman had said no more concerning that family than was deserved. He esteemed the departure of Mrs Treweeke and her family an unspeakable loss to the parish of Illogan, in the benevolence they had always exercised, and in the example they set to others to do likewise. He hoped, however, that the loss to Illogan would be a gain to Falmouth, and that the ladies of that place would respond to the example set them; for Mrs Treweeke would not fail to be doing all in her power to relieve her poorer neighbours, he believed that such duties had been to Mrs. Treweeke and her amiable daughters, their greatest pleasure while they resided in Illogan. All persons must appreciate the importance of early education, to enable the poor to read the scriptures and to receive the benefit of their ministers' instructions; and the Misses Treweeke had ever done all in their power at the Sunday Schools. Indeed, as those young ladies came to years of discretion, their greatest pleasure had been in attending to such duties, and in doing all the good they possibly could in the parish. (Hear) He would therefore, beg to couple with the health of Mrs Treweeke that of her amiable daughters. (The toast was drunk with most cordial cheers; and was followed by the relation, conversationally of many incidents in proof of the excellent character which those estimable ladies attained among their late parishioners). The Rev. G. N. Treweeke - Gentlemen; if I felt at the loss just now to return thanks for your kindness to me, I almost feel greater difficulty in returning thanks for my mother and sisters. But I beg to express to Mr. Hichens my sincere and very hearty thanks for the way in which he proposed their health, and to you, gentlemen, for the kind manner in which you have responded to his sentiments. I will take the first opportunity of telling them of your kindness; and I can answer for them that it will be a source of the greatest pleasure to them to know that they are still remembered with feelings of such hearty good will in the parish of Illogan. (Hear) They left it under uncontrollable circumstances; but though absent in body, yet in heart and feeling they will never be a unmindful of this parish. I need hardly say that, but for the assistance of my mother and sisters, I scarcely know how I should have managed here; they took a great portion of my duties in the parish off my hands, and I believe I must now let their actions speak for them ( Hear) hey are now residing at Falmouth, and may by the by, be settled in other parts of the country ; but wherever they may be, the kindness they have received at your hands will ever in remembered by them an with most grateful feelings. (Applause). The Chairman next proposed "the health of Lady Basset." And, after paying a tribute of respect to the memory of the late Lord de Dunstanville, spoke in terms that were warmly appreciated by all the company, of her ladyship's considerate liberality to her tenantry, and of her bounteous charities to the poor.- The toast was drunk with hearty cheers. The Chairman proceeded to speak of the judgment and discretion displayed by the late Lord De Dunstanville in the appointment of clergymen to the important parish of Illogan; adverting in terms of praise, to the three rectors whom he had known there in the last sixty years.- Mr Basset, Mr. Booth, and Mr. Treweeke. He hoped and had every confidence, as a true churchman that Lady Basset's selection of her present rector, Mr Wulff would prove equally good. - Mr. Burgess also expressed his confidence that Mrs. Wulff would be found equally disposed to be actively useful in the parish, and he hoped that neither of them would find reason to complain of having come into the parish of Illogan. He begged to propose "the health of the Rev. Mr. Wulff" - (Cheers) The Rev. J. G. Wulff thus returned thanks :- Gentlemen, I am very much obliged to M r. Burgess for the very kind manner in which he has proposed my health, and for the still more kind manner in which he has spoken of my wife. I regret that my wife has been very unwell, from erysipelas in the face, ever since we have been in Illogan; otherwise she would have accompanied me and called on many of the gentlemen and farmers of the parish, and their wives (hear); and I can assure you she would have had very great pleasure in making their acquaintance. She is one who gets much attached to the place in which she lives; she very much regretted leaving our former residence, and, probably, had the decision been left solely to her, I should not haven been in the situation in which I am now placed. There were, however, circumstances which induced me to accept it, particularly the very kind manner in which Lady Bassett offered me the living; and, besides that I am here in better circumstances than I was in at Gwinear, I knew t what a very respectable set of persons I was coming among. I had often heard of the inhabitants of Illogan, and of the high character they bore; and I could not b help feeling that I was coming into a neighbourhood where I should be able to live peaceably, happily, and comfortably with my parishioners. (Cheers) Still. I could not but feel at the same time that I was succeeding one who had lived there many years, and whom I knew to be most justly endeared to his parishioners. I was perfectly aware that, after all your late Rector had been doing in this parish for the last twenty-nine years, a great deal would be expected from me - probably more than I should be able to perform. He had also advantages that I do not posses. He had a family of most excellent children - young ladies who had been indefatigable in visiting from house to house and from cottage to cottage, and doing other services in the parish that I cannot possibly fulfil. My wife and myself are left to do all this by ourselves; and, of course, that which could be done by younger and more active persons cannot be done by us in our old age. Therefore, I feel I must thro myself on the kind consideration of the parishioners to make up for the many deficiencies that will occur. I consider it a very high honor to have been invited by you on this gratifying occasion, when so handsome a present has been made to my worthy friend Mr. Treweeke. I can assure you that it is with deep feelings that I have been present on this occasion. I have known his family for 30 years; and from Mr. and Mrs. Treweeke I have received the greatest kindness. But it would be absurd in me to say anything in their praise to you who knew them better than I possibly could. But, I can bear testimony to all that has been said of them by Mr. Burgess and Mr. Hichens; and I can truly say it went to my heart to hear the kind manner in which they have spoken of my old friends, and I feel grateful to them for it. Mr, Burgess said that the late Mr, Treweeke said that during the whole time he had lived in the parish he had never received an angry word or met with an insulting expression from any one. Now that fact, while it speaks volumes in his praise, also speaks volumes in your praise. I am sure no man can live in any populous parish without occasionally meeting with some little rubs here and there, unless persons are very well disposed indeed; there must be occasions in which we must come in contact - there will be some little difficulties and crosses likely to exasperate feelings. Though those feelings may be momentary, still, while each party feels that he is discharging his own duty there may be little cross expressions from one to the other. But it speaks volumes of all parties in this parish that they have been for years so trifling that memory cannot recall them. It gives me great satisfaction that I have come along such a set of men. I can truly say that I have left my last parish with regret; I have left there a very good set of fellows. In short, they are Cornishmen; and wherever I have met with Cornishmen I have always found men I could go on hand in glove. I left there with regret; but I feel I am come among another set of good fellows. I sincerely trust that we shall always go on comfortably, and that, when we come to know each other better, we shall live in the same peace and harmony which you seem to have enjoyed with your former rectors. (Cheers) Though I have not the same income that Mr. Treweeke had, yet, on the other hand, as I have not a family to support, it may be in my power to spend as much as he did. I can only say I don't want to save money (hear); and the proceeds of the parish I want to spend among my parishioners. (Cheers) I beg to wish you all health and happiness, and again return you my best thanks for the honor you have done me. The Chairman, having postponed the toast of "the Army and Navy" in the expectation that a gentleman of the Army would join the party, now proposed that toast with the health of Captain Wulff. The Rev. J. G. Wulff, returned thanks on behalf of his brother, who had that day gone to Bristol, on route to the Great Exhibition. The next toast proposed from the chair was the health of Mr. Charles Reynolds - Mr. Hichens, who had seen Mr. Reynolds in the morning, and had been commissioned by him to apologize for his unavoidable absence from the meeting, bore testimony as to that gentleman's regret at being deprived of the satisfaction of taking part in the proceedings of the day. The toast was drunk with cheers, and was suitably acknowledged by Mr. Nettell on behalf of Mr. Reynolds. The Chairman proposed "The health of the Church-wardens - and may they long continue their service to the parish". (Cheers)- Mr. Fox and Mr. Serfell severally acknowledged the toast; and the latter gentleman also proposed the Chairman's good health, with thanks for his services. - Mr. Hichens took occasion to speak of Mr. Burgess's aid in all matters effecting the welfare of the parish. - The toast was drunk with hearty cheers; and was responded to with much spirit and good humour, by the Chairman, who concluded his speech by proposing the health of Mr. Blamey, as one of the oldest parishioners, and as persevering and deserving a gentleman as any in the country. "And if' concluded Mr. Reynolds "he will be kind enough to add a codicil to his will to any of my children, I will be much obliged to him" (Laughter) Mr. Blamey returned thanks; and speaking of his former business in Illogan and of his success therein (to both which the chairman had alluded) he said it was to the credit of that place and the neighbourhood that through, in the course of that business he had tracted upwards of £40,000, when he gave it up, he had not been defrauded of as much as £20, (Hear) Mr. Hichens proposed the health of Mr. Charles Andrew, who had come from another parish to join them in paying respect to their great and his esteemed family. Mr. Charles Andrew suitably acknowledged the compliment. The next toast was 'Success to Agriculture" - responded to by Mr. W. Paull, of Park, who, after alluding to the depressed state of agriculture, stated that he considered the British agriculture was subject to a very unfair competition with the foreigner, taking into consideration the price of labour at home and abroad, but he for one, on being placed on equal grounds with foreigners, was prepared to compete with them. This was followed by "the Press" acknowledgement by our Reporter. "The Committee" followed, responded to by Mr. John Burgess, who stated that, as a member of the committee, he had much pleasure and pride in speaking of the manner in which the poor of Illogan had come forward to contribute their mite towards presenting a testimonial to one who was so highly esteemed by them. There were several on whom the committee did not call, in consideration of their comparative poverty, but as soon as they heard of the committee's errand, they immediately followed, and insisted in their being allowed to join in testifying their regard and esteem for the family of their late worthy and much lamented rector. "The Ladies" was proposed by Mr. Richard Hichens in a very neat, and gallant speech: and was responded to by the Rev. G.N. Treweeke. Several other sentiments and complimentary toasts followed; and, under the auspices of a cheerful President, the party spent a very agreeable evening. End Page 7

Those belonging to the Wesleyan school with their teachers and friends walked to Trewhiddle, about half a mile from the town, where they enjoyed themselves in a field.

THE SHIP "DAEDALUS" - The friends of the numerous passengers who left Padstow for Quebec this spring in the ship "Daedalus" will be gratified to learn that they arrived out, all well, on the 27th of May, and were much pleased with the ship and captain. We copy the following from the Quebec Morning Chronicle: "Quebec, May 27th, 1851 To Mr. THOMAS BULMAN, master of the ship "Daedalus" from Padstow - Sir, We, the passengers on board the ship "Daedalus," beg leave to tender our sincere thanks to you before parting, for your unwearied attention to the comfort and health of all, both night and day, during the voyage; also, for the great order and cleanliness of the ship through your good discipline.

P. and Gertrude VERCOE and five children, of Bodmin; THOMAS KNIGHT and PHILIP KNIGHT, of Roche; JAMES CARDELL BLAMEY, Lower St. Columb; A. BESWATHERICK, of St. Miniver, of behalf of the other passengers." TRURO POLICE - On Monday last, JOHN HARRIS, of Veryan, labourer, was committed for trial at the sessions, for stealing a fustian waistcoat, and also for stealing a shoe, belonging to THOMAS WILLOUGHBY, ostler at the White Hart, Truro. ELIZABETH TREWOLLA, of Castle-street, Truro, was charged with stealing a pound of butter, the property of FRANCIS GUNDRY, of the Queen's Head, Truro. She was also charged with stealing a leg of lamb, the property of JAMES MACDONALD, of Redruth, confectioner, who had bought the meat in Truro market, and left it at the Queen's head. The prisoner was remanded till Wednesday last, when she was committed for stealing the butter. The other charge was dismissed, the prosecutor not appearing. LAUNCESTON - BIGAMY - THOMAS BROWN FARTHING, a person for nearly twelve years, has been in her Majesty's service in the Artillery, was apprehended by SAMBELL, police officer, and charged before MR. THOMAS PEARSE, magistrate for the district, with being married to a woman in York, his wife still living in Launceston. It appears in the evidence given that the person to whom he has been lately married, possessed a little money, and with a part of it purchased his discharge, and after living with her a short time, he abandoned her and sought to obtain possession of the little property which his industrious and hard-working wife had realized during his absence. The case was referred to York, where he has been sent to take his trial. COMMITTALS - On Monday last, a girl named CRABB was taken before the REV. DR. FLETCHER, and committed to Bodmin, charged with stealing a quantity of ribbon from MRS. WM. HENWOOD, straw bonnet maker, St. Austell, by whom she had been employed as an occasional servant. On Saturday last, a young man named HENRY HARVEY, an apprentice with MR. SAMUEL TRUSCOTT, of St. Austell, was committed to Bodmin gaol for twenty-one days, for absconding from his master. SHIPWRECK IN MOUNT'S BAY - On the afternoon of Wednesday, last week, the lugger "Olivia," in making for Gwavas Lake, when about two miles off St. Loy, came up with a sloop running in the same direction. As no sign of distress was hung out she did not at first attract any particular attention, but soon after passing her she was observed to be rapidly sinking. The "Olivia" then endeavoured to come up with her, and on nearing her, a man was observed holding on a water keg with a chain in each hand. The "Olivia" was able to approach so near as to discover that he had received a severe cut over the eye, which was bleeding profusely. A rope was immediately flung towards him, but as he made no effort to reach it, and soon after fell flat on his back and made no attempt to rise again, it was concluded that he was dead. A few floating articles were then picked up, and the "Olivia" hovered about in the neighbourhood of the sloop for some time, in the hope of picking up some of the crew, who might have been floating about. The attempt, however, proved fruitless, and the weather continuing very stormy, the "Olivia" was compelled to run for her own safety. The unfortunate vessel has since been found to be the "Plymouth Packet," CAPT. HITCHENS, laden with stone for Scilly. ACCIDENTS - On Friday last, as a labouring man named OAKEM was in the act of excavating some part of the new line of railway between Angarrack and Hayle, a quantity of earth gave way and broke one of his legs. On the following Monday, one of the navvies fell from a scaffolding at Hayle Foundry, and pitched to his head on some pig iron, then lying in the way. He was immediately conveyed to his lodgings, and MR. ANGOVE, surgeon, in the absence of DR. MILLETT, hastened to the spot, when it was found that the head and neck had been severely cut besides other injuries. Both these parties, however, are likely to do well. MELANCHOLY DEATH OF A CHILD - On Friday last, the body of a boy about five years old, the son of CAPT. H. POPE, of Padstow, was picked up floating on the river there. It is supposed that he had fallen off some rock into the water. CORONERS' INQUESTS - On Tuesday last, an inquest was held at Maula Lane-end, in the parish of Illogan, before Mr. JOHN CARLYON, coroner, on the body of STEPHEN WILLIAMS, miner, aged 19 years, who died from injuries he received by a fall, whilst at work on Friday last. Verdict, accidental death. On the 18th instant, an inquest was held before MR. GILBERT HAMLEY, deputy coroner, at East Looe, on view of the body of ELIZABETH SCANTLEBURY, who was found on the preceding morning in a dying state, with her throat cut. It appeared from the evidence that a niece of deceased went to her house in the morning about half-past seven for the purpose of dressing her children. Not finding her aunt in the bed room, and observing that her bed had not been slept in, she asked the children where their mother was. They not being able to tell her, she went down stairs, and on entering the shop found deceased lying on the floor. She made an alarm, and a person called TOMS, who lived in the same house, came down stairs and assisted in bringing her into the kitchen, when it was discovered that her throat was cut in a frightful manner. MR. CLOGG, surgeon, was soon in attendance and closed the wound, but she died in a few hours. Deceased had been in a desponding state for some weeks, fearing she had brought her husband into difficulties, having given too many orders for shop goods. On Saturday evening she sent for her brother and told him it was nearly all over with her, and she wished she had thrown herself into the sea. Only a few minutes before she committed the act, she was seen by a neighbour to take down the kitchen window shutter. Several witnesses spoke as to her being low in spirits lately. She had nine children and was afraid she would not be able to maintain them. A razor, with which she had cut her throat, was found close to her side. The jury returned a verdict of "temporary insanity." Julia Mosman, OPC for St.Austell,Charlestown, and Treverbyn Website at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~staustell W.
