Death Results
From Her Burns.
Miss Leila Hayes the Victim
Other Accidents

Our People were shocked Sunday
to learn of the terrible accident
which befell Miss Leila Hayes, the
charming daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Hugh Hayes, about 1890 a. m.
that morning.
Miss Hayes had never fully re-
covered from her lony spell of
typhoid fever and did not have a
good rest Saturday night, so Sun
day morning on account of the
intense cold she sat down next to
the range In a calico gown. She
regainej consciousness awhile af-
ter the acci Dent and said all she
could remember was that she had
punched the fire with pise stick
thrown II into coal bucket at her
side. She then must have dozed
off as the first thing she realized
was that her clothes were afire
and she rushed into the next room
crying for help. Her mother threw
a blanket around her and her
grandmother, Mrs. Russell also
came to her relief.
She was mass of flames when
she came out of the kitchen, so
that while they succeeded In smoth
ering the flames from her waist
up, the other part of her body was
badly burned. Mrs. Hayes receiv-
oj painful burns about her hands
In assisting her daughter.
Drs. Hall ana Hardin were call
e and did all in their power to
relieve AMI save the young lady
but she passed away at ii.3o a. m.
Monday after terrible suffering.
Miss Hayes was born In Bloom
field, Iowa, twenty-six years ago.
She came here with her parents at
the age OF twelve. She was grad
uate OF NJ. v. c. in the 1908 class
and continued her studies in music
under Miss Kreiser since. She
was ono OF our most accomplished
musicians. She was also the lead
ing soprano In tho Cumberland
Presbyterian church choir, always
faithful to her duties and her
church.
She was one OF Marshall's most
charming young ladies. Always
with a sweet and cheerful smile
and her loss Is therefore severe
one to the community. To the
parents II Is doubly so. They
lost their son several years ago
and since then made brave fight
to save the daughter during her
long illness, only TO be thwarted
by an accident. They have the
deepest sympathy OF the commun-
ity.
Funeral services were conducted
at the First Presbyterian church
by her pastor, Rev. j. Z. Cortner,
at 2 p I'M. Wednesday, after which
her remains were laid to rest in
Ridge Park cemetery.

Only God knew her aching heart,
Only he heard her plaintive moan
No eyes beheld her teardrops start,
She only shed them all alone.
Too deep her grief, too sharp her
pain,
For other aeven to beholi;
Her sobs were hushei, her sighs
restrained,
A secret she did not unfold.
How great the burden she sustained
How bitter was the cup she drank
Yet ne'er day while strength re-
mained,
Did she forget her Lord to thank.
She knew the Eye that never sleeps
Beheld her sighs and marked her
tears;
She knew His tender power would
keep
Her through the long and weary
years.
1t seems almost wrong to weep
For one who has so longed for
rest,
To lie down In the grave and sleep
Till Jesus took her to his breast.
She's resting safely. blessed sleep /
For only just little while,
Then she'll awake, no more to weep
With blooming health and glory
smile
How swsetly did she sink to rest,
