Child Scalded to Death.

The two year old daughter of Mfr. and Mrs. Al Ramey fell in a tub of scalding hot water Monday morning and was badly burned, the water scalding its head, face, one arm and part of the chest and one side of the body. The child lingered in terrible agony until Monday evening, when its death occurred. The funeral of Bessie May Ramey was held at the Free Baptist church yesterday morning, services being conducted by Revs. B. F. Ferguson and J. A. Cochran. The parents have the sympathy of all in their sad bereavement.
