The Barnesville Gazette, Barnesville, Ga.

Mrs. T.W. Cochran was very seriously burned last Friday morning about 8 o'clock.

She had been feeble for some days, but she felt sufficiently strong to get up 
that morning and was standing before the fire. Her clothing caught on fire and 
she was quite severely burned before the fire could be extinguished. Dr. 
Thurmond and other friends waited on Mrs. Cochran and did everything possible to

alleviate her suffering. One whole side was quite seriously burned and she has 
suffered much since that time.

The whole community were made sad by the unfortunate accident and all extend 
sympathy to Mrs. Cochran and her family and friends.
