Powell NASH, a neighbour, saw flames coming from the building, and with the help of another neighbour, he broke down the door of the lavatory, where the body was discovered. Behind the door hung two coats and a mackintosh and it is assumed that these were set on fire by a candle which the woman had with her. The Coroner (Mr. D.J. TREASURE) at the inquest on Saturday, recorded a verdict of "Accidental death." How undigested milk caused the heart failure which resulted in the death of the three-days-old child of William John PHILLIPS, an unemployed stoker living at Abercwmboi, was told at an inquest which Mr. R.J. RHYS, coroner, held on Saturday. Nurse THOMAS, who attended the child's mother at the birth, said the child struck her as being perfectly normal. Dr. Ambrose OWEN, who conducted a post-mortem examination, stated that he discovered a quantity of undigested milk in the child's stomach. The outlet of the stomach, added the doctor, was extraordinarily narrow. This was the first case of the kind in his experience. The undigested milk led to heart failure which brought about death. The Coroner: It is at any rate a very interesting case of malformation and I can only record a verdict of "Death from natural causes." The funerals of William Henry SNELLGROVE and Frederick Martin ALLEN, the two colliers who were buried alive whilst digging for coal at the Cwmnanty Tip, took place at Aberbeeg Cemetery on Saturday. The procession which was almost half-a-mile in length, included Messrs. George BARKER, M.P., George DAGGAR, W. BEYNON, and H.E. PHINNEMORE. The officiating ministers were the Rev. W.M. DAVIES, vicar of Six Bells, and the Rev. Ivor EVANS, pastor of Blaenau Gwent Baptist Church. Harry KELLY 37, a tramp, said to be a native of Brecon, died at Pontardawe Workhouse Infirmary on Sunday morning from the effects, it is alleged, of drinking methylated spirits. An inquest will be held. Mrs. Ann JONES, wife of Mr. M. JONES, butcher, of 37, Court-street, Tonypandy, was found dead on Saturday morning. Her throat was cut and a butcher's knife was lying close by. The barking of a dog in the shop attracted the attention of a newsboy, and on looking through the window he saw the body of the woman. The Newport coroner on Saturday adjourned the inquest on Thomas Arthur Woodman BEACH, the infant child of Thomas John BEACH, miner, of Central-road, Llanhilleth. The father said that whilst the family was having tea on Thursday last, the child gripped a cup of tea unobserved, and the hot liquid went over his back and neck. He was conveyed to the Royal Gwent Hospital and there succumbed. A verdict of "Accidental death" was returned by the Pembroke County Coroner (Mr. H.J.E. PRICE) at an inquest held on Mrs. Elizabeth HAINES 80, a widow, of Foxall Cottage, Llangwym, who, as previously announced in the Western Mail was found dead on the floor of her bedroom on Tuesday with her clothing completerly burnt off. Police-constable BEVAN said that in his opinion the old woman got out of bed to replenish the culm fire in the room, and her clothing became ignited. John Patrick
