| Notes |
- A Fatal Accident.
WHEATLAND, Ill., Sept. 27, 1893.
On last Tuesday evening, while Mr. Joe Bunch was absent from home, his wife stepped from the house into the garden, leaving their little 4-year-old daughter, Blanche, by the cook stove.
During the mother’s absence her clothes became ignited. Her mother on hearing her screams rushed to her rescue, but before the flames could be extinguished she was so badly burned that she died from the effects.
Blanche was a sweet little girl, dearly loved by all who knew her.
The family have the heartfelt sympathy of the entire community in their sad bereavement.
