AWFULLY SUDDEN DEATH.
A very melancholy case of sudden death occurred at the Theatre Royal on Saturday night, at. the exhibition of Rayner's diorama. Among the audience was Mr Phillip Fathers, a man of over 60 years of age, who, during the performance, was seen to drop from his seat as though in a faint, but on being carried out he was found to be dead. The body was at once removed to his house in New-street, and an inquest was to be held this afternoon at M'Gee's Hotel. Heart disease is supposed to have been the cause of death.
