Fly Poison. —A singular fatality is recorded by the 
Times as having occurred at Newmarket. A -woman 
named Cooper, housekeeper to Mr. AY. Boyce, was 
sitting near a table on which some poisoned papers had 
been placed for the purpose of killing flies. A fly was 
seen to leave one of these papers and alight on the 
woman’s nose, which was slightly scratched. The 
wound speedily became inflamed; in a short time her 
whole system became affected, and she died in about 
twenty-four hours.
