Supposed TO Have Rolled Into "A Fire
He Built in the Woods

Augusta. Dec. 2.-Charles C. Leonard,
journeyman printer, was brought to the
city hospital to-day fatally burned.
A companion who came to the city on
the same train said to some of the
craft that Leonard, while intoxicated had
made a fire in the woods a few miles from
the city, on the Georgia Railroad, and It
is supposed had lain beside it and rolled
into 1T while asleep.
He was fearfully burned. 1t was stated
at the hospital that almost his entire
body was smirched by the flames. His
clothes had been eaten off and the skin
charred or bllstered The only portions
uninjured were the feet which had been
protected by his shoes.
Leonard died about 10 o'clock tonight
without ever having been sufficiently con-
scious to give any particulars of his burn
ing. Unless something is learned of his
family he will be buried by the local
Typographical Union.
