PROBABLY FATAL ACCIDENT AT LEE.

Mrs. Joseph Osley, an aged lady residing at Lee, was badly burned from the explosion of a lamp Wednesday afternoon. She had re-filled the lamp, it appears, and lighted it to see how it burned, when it exploded and threw burning oil ail over her. Her clothing was all burned off and she received burns which it was thought would result fatally.
