Eventful career of a steamer ended in disaster
A garbled colonial report recalls the steamer Paganel and its voyages from New Zealand to London and Australia. It notes misadventures, including a fire at sea near Victoria Docks, heavy cargo loss, and repairs in Nagasaki. The vessel later faced grounding and legal actions by the Victorian Marie Peart, with substantial damage and crew changes amid government charters to Fremantle and Usassis shareholders.

Girl burned trying to save life in Sydney Hospital blaze
A 20 year old woman, Une Qrean, died from severe burns after a kitchen fire at a Sydney home. Witnesses described her attempt to smother flames on her dress, and emergency crews battled the blaze as her injuries proved fatal at hospital. A second incident involved Isabella Granger, aged 58, who died after a house fire at Grapetreet, with neighbors aiding her son Allan Granger to safety before fire crews arrived. The separate cases prompted officials to note the medical death verdict in the first incident and to record the fatal blaze in Ballarat East, Victoria.
