MELANCHOLY AND FATAL ACCIDENT
We deeply regret to announce the death of Capt. ADAIR of the Cape Mounted Rifles (late of the 72nd Highlanders) under the following distressing circumstances. Deceased was stationed at Fort Brown, and was out on Wednesday se’nnight in that neighbourhood shooting. He had fired off one barrel, and was standing with the butt of his piece on the ground, with one hand holding the muzzle; whilst in this position, and with the head gently inclined forward, in the act of taking a pinch of snuff, the charge in the loaded barrel, from some cause which has not been explained, exploded – entering the head of this lamented officer between the eyes, and shattering in the most frightful manner the face and scalp. The deceased was in the prime of life and highly esteemed by his brother officers. His remains were deposited with military honors in the burial ground at Graham’s Town on Saturday – the funeral being attended, we believe, by all the officers in the garrison.

(Extract of a Letter from Cradock dated 9th Feb)
FATAL ACCIDENT: On the 2nd of last month a daughter of Wienand J. PRETORIUS, aged 6 years, lost her life by fire. The mother and child went to bed about 10 o’clock on the night of the accident, leaving a candle burning near the bed. About two o’clock Mrs. PRETORIUS discovered that the curtains had caught fire. She started up, and ran down stairs; but instantly recollecting that the child was above, she returned to its rescue. At which time it was so severely burnt that it only survived about six hours. The mother was severely burnt in rescuing the child.
On the 3rd inst a son on Christian SCHUTS of Cradock, aged 2 years, was drowned in a hole of water, about six paces from his father’s dwelling house. Although but a short time under water, yet, I regret to say that every effort that was used by Mr. MUNRO to restore animation was ineffectual.
