HERR, child
September 6, 1895
Arizona Republican Newspaper

The little daughter of P.W. Herr, foreman of the converter 
furnace of the Jerome Mine, was burned to death a few days 
ago.  While playing in the kitchen she upset a pan full of 
grease which caught fire from the stove and set her clothing 
on fire.  The little child ran screaming through the house 
and the flames which enveloped her person set fire to some 
curtains and the whole building was soon in flames.  The 
little sufferer was caught in her flight and the fire 
extinguished but the flames had done their deadly work 
and the child died the following morning.  The house 
and contents were a total loss.
