From the Dublin Gazette. Sunday morning just at the hour of daybreak, Annie Tucker, a very old woman, in this county, rose from her bed, kindled the fire, dressed herself and lit her pipe. Her daughter, who slept in a different bed in the same room, was soon aroused by screams, and discovered that the clothing of the old woman was ablaze. The flames were extinguished, however, but not until they had wrought fatal effects, from which she died after hours of suffering the most excruciating pain.
