she fell, and her little six-year-old son. Lewis,
who was up stairs, ran down to assist her. He
endeavored to smother the flames with his

and gave the alarm. By the time assistance
arrived, Mrs. Walters had managed to crawl to
the door. and the light of the flames as they
consumed her clothing could be seen a great
way off. The wood work of the house caught
from the flames but the fire was soon extin-

and after intense suffering died before mid
night. She has been subject to Spasms since
