>From London Daily Advertiser ( London, England ), Tuesday, August 18, 1752; Issue 458. BRISTOL, Aug 15. On Monday last, one Samuel BLINMAN , a Quarry-Man, who worked in the Cleves, in Vincent's Rocks, a little below the New-Hotwell, about two Miles from this City, was, in attempting to spring a Vein of Rocks, unfortunately blown up by the sudden Explosion of the Gunpowder; and that in so dreadful a Manner, that he was split up to the Navel; one Side almost torn away; and his Neck and one of his Arms broke; to the inexpressible Grief of a Wife and three Children, whom he has left behind him to lament his Loss. It is supposed the Occasion of this unforeseen Accident was, that the Touchwood, with which they set Fire to the Train, in order to blow up the Vein, not burning out as soon as was expected, so that the Gunpowder might take Fire, induced the Deceased to go too precipitately towards the Train, to see if any thing was amiss, when, in an Instant the Powder took Fire, and blew him up, with that Part of the Rock which he stood on, a considerable Height from the Surface, in the Sight of several Persons, who could not possibly assist him, so as to preserve his Life.
