A SAD AND FATAL ACCIDENTAL CHILD BURN
ED TO DEATH.-On the 9Th instant, near Arbor
Hill in this county, little Lacy v. Slower, aged
2 years, months. and days, son Of Mr.. Geo.
H. Slower. was so badly burned that he died
within about 16 hours after the accident. This
child, accompanied by his older brother and
sister. went into room adjoining that occupi-
ed by his parents, when, after a short time, the
little girl was heard to excaim, "he is burningi'
The parents then entered the room and were
Mortified to find the clothes of their child in
flames. The parents and the older son extin-
guished the flames as quickly as they could,
but not soon enough to prevent the child from
being fatally burned, and the hands OF both
parents and the older son were badly burned.
Drs. Gilkeson and Dunlap were called to see the
child. and did all for its relief that possible,
but 1t was burned beyond recovery, and, in
death, found relief from its sufferings. The
distressed parents have the sympathy of the
community.
