Georgia Gazette
Savannah, May 23.  On Friday last melancholy happened at plantation of Port 
William a few mile from town. As one Mrs. Cox was going into one of the 
outhouses on the plantation, with some lighted stickes in her hand, unluckily 
some sparks of fire fell into a keg with about 20 pounds of gunpowder, which 
blew up part of the house and burnt her in such as a miserable mannet that she 
died next morning.
