Mr. Thomas Swans five year old little
girl had her clothes to catch on fire the 9th
er morning while she was standing around
a COOK stove. She became frightened and
ran out doors and the wind famed the
flames. Her father attempted to extinguish
the fire by grasping and holding the burning
clothes with his hands, but being unable to
do SO picked her up and carried her into the
house and wrapped her up in a bed-ouit
and by this means smothered out the fire.
The little girl sustained some slight burns
but Mr. Swans right hand was badly and
painfully burned. He evidently saved the
little girl life
