LITTLE GIRL BURNED TO DEATH IN UNION TOWNSHIP.

While about a burning brush last Thursday, the five-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. N. J. Reeder of near Virgie, was so badly burned from her clothing catching tire that she died Saturday morning. The clothing was practically all burned from her body before the flames could be extinguished, and her body was burned from head to foot. Everything possible was done to edleviate her suffering, but she was too seriously burned to Kve, mid her death was a blessed relief.
