BURNED TO DEATH
IN DANVILLE JAIL.

Danville, Va, Dec. 3O.-News was
received this morning from Crewe of
the death there from burns of r. A.
Lloyd, formerly of this city, now in
the lumber business at that point.
Members of his family who wired for
full details received no answer, but
police officials of the community said
over long distance telephone that Mr..
Lloyd had been placed in jail for a
minor offense and that while in his
cell his clothing had in some way
become ignited, causing such serious
injury that the injured man succumb-
led today. The occurrence took place
yesterday and it was stated that
Lloyd's clothing apparently became
ignited by a cigarette in his mouth,
although it was declared that he had
been searched before being locked up.
He was found unconscious with his
clothing burnt off him and in such
condition that nothing could be done
for him. Lloyd was formerly associat-
ed with the Danville Lumber company
here, but about a year ago left for
Crewe, where he was in business for
himself. He is survived by his wife
and four small children. The body
will arrive here tomorrow afternoon
and the interment will take place in
this city.
