Nottingham, July 11.  On Tuesday night last a melancholy
accident happened at the County-Hall in this town as a
Company of Comedians were performing a comedy, the upper
gallery being much crowded fell down upon those below, by
which accident several were very much hurt, having their
legs broke, &c.  Mr. Smith (a gentleman belonging to the
Duke of Argyle's Regiment of Horse) was so much bruised,
that he died.
