screams, rushed from the house cry
ing for somebody to save her baby.
While several rushed to her side
with rugs and blankets and vainly
tried to save her life, the hero of
the occasion crawled into her blaz-
ing home and rescued her baby from
death / the flames.
After having suffered untold ag-
ony since IL am. today, Mrs. Bren-

10 pm. of burns sustained from a
gasoline explosion.
