TIMARU.
Friday.
To-day at Timaru a frightful fatal accident occurred, when the roof blew off a house near Ormsby's flour mill, taking the chimney with it. Through the fall of the latter, it caused the instantaneous death of an infant seven months old, and Mrs Drew the mother died about ten minutes after. Brew is a respectable man, head miller at the mill in question. Great sympathy is felt at his sudden bereavement.
