Her clothes thus became ignited, and she was found shortly afterwards in a complete mass of flames. Medical assistance was obtained, but the poor old woman died at an early hour the following morning. A Verdict of "Accidental Death" was returned, the Coroner observing that it was a sad pity that the deceased should come to such an end at her advanced time of life.

Despite their young ages 17,15 and 13 I think
Thomas and Margaret are Domestic servant

No sign of Ann.
