BADLY BURNED.

Mrs. Sarah Britton Fatally Injured by a Gasoline Explosion. Mrs. Sarah Britton, one of the city's most estimable old ladies, met with probably a fatal accident at her home on east College street Friday morning. It appears that Mrs. Britton was using gasoline to clean some spots on the carpet. The oil was used in such quantities that considerable gas generated from it which ignited from a stove in the room and an explosion followed. The old lady's clothes took fire and phe was quickly enveloped in Hames. Kunning to the room of her daughter, Mrs. Harry Palmer, she was quickly covered by a blanket and Hames smothered. Drs. Jones and Ristine were hastily summoned. They found Mrs. Britton to bo frightfully burned about the face and body and pronounced the case an almost hopeless one. The victim is the widow of the late John Britton and one of the best known of Montgomery county's pioneer ladies. Her children are Judge W. P. Britton, Walter Britton, Mrs. J. R. Robinson, Mrs. Palmer and Oscar Britton, of Indianapolis.
