On last Thursday morning Mrs. W. l..

Of Anderson, in Centerville township, met
with o very sad and distressing accident,
which caused her death. About ii O'Clock
she returned to her house from the cotton

tire in the fireplace, she turned around
to build one in the stove, which stood on
the hearth near the fireplace and, while
thus engaged, her clothing caught fire from
the blaze bekind her. Knowing that she
was alone in the house, she immediately
ran out into the yard, CRYING for help. Her
screams attracted the attention Of two wo-
men, who were about ono hundred and
tifty yards away, and they ran to her rescue
and Immediately set to work to put out the
enveloping flames throwing quilts around
her and using every means possible to save
her life. Their efforts, however. proved
futile. for everything upon her was rapidly
consumed, anu SHE vac soon completely
roasted, there not being a square inch OH
her peSon but what was burned almost to
crisp. DR.. =. \. White was inImedi-
ately sent for, and arrived at the house be-
tween and o'clock, but he could do
nothing to alleviate her intense sufferings,
for she was beyond the reach of medical
skill. She fingered in great agony, all the
while conscious, unit. about o'clock that
evening, when the ministering angel OF
death came to her relief. She was about 60
years of age, and very highly respected
lady Of her neighborh00d.
