Another sudden death.

--John Hunt, a shoemaker, residing on Summer street, died suddenly yesterday morning. He was a man of very intemperate habits, and on rising yesterday morning expressed a wish for a glass of gin, saying he ‘"would give five dollars for a glass of gin."’ He then stepped to the door, unlocked it, and on stepping across the threshold, fell down and died instantly. Mr. Hunt was a native of Ireland, and was about fifty years of age.-- Fall River (Mass.) News.
