"Aunt Rena" has been an invalid from paralysis for several years and made her home with a granddaughter living on Lake street. The screams of the old woman were not heard until her clothing was practically burned form her body and the skin and flesh was burned to a crisp in many places. In years ago, "Aunt Rena" was a family servant for the WHITLOCKs and was the wife of "Uncle" Anderson RUDACIL, who is well-known around Marietta as a wood chopper.
