Lililian Liford, 16 years of age, died Sunday at her home near Bloomington, Ind., from burns received ten days ago. Her lover, Litana Skelton, is in jail at Bloomington charged with her murder. Skelton was with the girl when her clothing caught on fire and the father accuses him of having poured, coal oil on her clothing and then set fire to it. The girl lingered for 10 days, most of the time being delirious. She would grab the covers of the bed upon which she lay and declare that Skelton was trying to kill her. No rational statement was procured from her. Bkelton is 27 years of age. He denies that he caused the fire which resulted in her death. A lively bunch a stags surprised R. B.

Ben was some fifty years of age that day and the boys remembered it with a befitting present. A Classified Adv. will rent It.
