Hannah, daughter of Mr.. Andrew Fra
zier, of Keithsburg, aged about Is years,
was lighting FIRE about l l o'clock, yester-
day (the 18th and the FIRE not kindling to
suit her, she poured a little coal oil upon it
the canexploded, setting her dress on FIRE,
and. and in a moment, she was burned past
recovery. Her clothing was wholly con-
sumed and her flesh about the neck and
waist. where the clothing was fastened, was
literally burned to crisp She was alive
at o'clock, when the boat left, but was not
expected to survive but short time.
1t does seem strange that people will con-
tiuue to endanger their lives in this way
Almost every week we have similar accounts,
and it does seem that people of ordinary in
telhgence, who read or hear of the results of
snch carelessness, would instruct all con-
neeted with their household of the danger of
such practices. - 8 fIE tss@
