Little Daughter of Monon Conductor Severely Burned.
Dorothy, one of the 9-year-old twin daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Ira Gray, of Monon, suffered a severe injury last Saturday evening. Mis. Gray had started for Indiana Harbor Saturday evening, joining her husband, who is a focal freight conductor on the Monon, at Hammond. At the supper hour an older daughter had fried some eggs and was in the act of taking them from the Stove when Dorothy ran into her. The hot grease from the pan of eggs ran down the side of Dorothy’s face, across her chin and on her ehest, inflicting a terrible burn. It is believed that she will not be seriously scarred by the accident, but it will be some time be'tore the injury heals. Mrs. Gray was formerly Miss Emma Cline, of this city. She and her husband were notified of the accident before they left Hammond and they hurried back to Monon. Mortgage exemption blanks at The Republican office.
