Dubuque Herald, Tue., 6 Nov. 1860.

Clayton County- Another fatal accident has resulted from the too careless use of camphene, by a young lady in Clayton County a few days since. The old story, of attempting to fill the lamp while it was burning - the lamp exploded, and burning Miss Clavish, (the young lady), so severely, that she died in a few hours. Camphene is dangerous, use it as careful as you may; and the abolishment of its use would be a saving of many lives.
