The unfortunate Miss Cherry

The stage waggon that goes from Louth to Lincoln, in which were passengers Mrs. Cherry and her daughter, was overturned near Claybridge, by which unhappy accident Miss Cherry, the daughter, was killed on the spot; and Mrs. Cherry so violently bruised, that with what for the loss of her daughter, and the hurt she received, it is thought she cannot long survive.

The unfortunate Miss Cherry's life seems to have been attended with a series of accidents: some time ago she narrowly escaped drowning, by falling into a well; and by another misfortune, she had both her arms and legs broke at the same time.
