Pensioner died after night-dress caught fire
An 86-year-old woman died from severe burns after her night-dress caught fire in the living room of her Co Clare farmhouse, an inquest heard tonight.
Seamus Moloney, a son of Agnes Moloney, told how he found her lying on the floor of the family home at Effernan, Kildysart in Co Clare just minutes after her gown went up in flames.
