AN lNToxICATEp MAN BURNED TO
DEATH IN WAGON BY gHE ROAD
SIDE,
Pontiac, June Authorization has
just reached this city of a frightful ac-
cident five miles from here. A man
named Backus, farmer ofW hite Lake,
came to Pontiac, got drunk, and at 8
o'clock started for home with his wife
In wagon, The vehicle contained
some straw, and among other things
purchased in the city, can of kero-
sene oil. When near Elizabeth Lake
the horses became frightened, and sf-
ter running some distance, collided
with tree, throwing out Mrs. Backus
and injuring her more or less. About
this time the straw took IRE from pipe
which Mr.. Backus was smoking and
he was too drunk to notice it. It is
supposed the horses became detached
from the vehicle, the fire spread to the
oil caa or Jug, out of which the cork
had been jostled, 1t exploded, covering
the stupified man burning him and the
wagon to cinder. A coroner has just
departed for the scene. The unfor.
