man by the name OF Norman Brown
fell into a vat Of boiling water at
the Charleston Basket and Veneer
Manufacturing Company's factory and
VAS scalded so badly that he died Fri
day night In the hospital from the
effects Of his injuries. Brown was

thickly maSsed logs in the vat, which
is about fifteen by twenty feet In area,
