alive In Il barn on his fathers property
after having been caught by the flames
inside the structure with all exits block ed
The lads body was burned beyond recog-
milton and when finally recovered by the
hrcmen from Burlington was a pitiful
sight. only the torso remaining.
Firemen from station one, in company
with Chief Carl d. Stockwell, in response
to telephone call, made the trip there In
record time and despite the raging flames
the fire ladies from Burlington rsSed
their lives time and time again in a vain
endeavor to locate the body of the little
boy in the burning barn. 1t was only
through pitching the burning hay and
grain about that the body was located at
all and because of the seething mass Of
flames it was necessary to use a long
pole to remove the remains. they being
in a stall in one side of the building.
Nearly two hundred gallons Of chem
icals were used on the blazing barn but
it had too much of a start SO while some
of the crew searched the barn for the
boy the others turned their attention to
tte house, which was abaze. having caught
fire from sparks sent up by the barn, but
quick work prevented a further loss. The
father of the boy arrived from his work
at the Baldwin Refrigerator company's
shop before the boys BODY was recovered
and had to be forcbly held to prevent
him from dashing into the flames In
search of his son.

How the accident happened Is a mystery
to officials of the company. so they
stated last night as the rails were not
slippery and had not spread The car
was going slowly, fortunately for all con-
cerned, for had it been moving fast the
pole would have caused its overturning
with probable lengthy list of serious
injuries if not fatalities The young lady
who was injured was thrown against one
of the iron side hand bars, and, accord
ing to the report made to the company,
was standing up in her seat when the
accident happened She was taken to the
Fanny Allen hospital and given treatment
for scratches on her face. An X-ray will
he taken of her shoulders to-day to
determine the exact nature of the injuries
there.
a wrecking crew was at work on the
scene until a late hour last night putting
the car back on the tracks again and it
was run to the barns under its own
power
