OAMARU.
September 25.
A fire broke out in a three-roomed house in Eden-street on Saturday night, shortly before midnight. The house was occupied by a man named Alfred Dray. The neighbors were aroused by screams, and found Mrs Dray, who had only been confined a week, rushing into the garden with her child in her arms, both enveloped in flames. The neighbors succeeded in extinguishing the flames by means of wet sheets, but the child died this morning.
