Woman Burned to Death
 
Last Friday p.m. at Weiser, Mrs. Lena Holt, for many years a resident of that 
city, died from the effect of burns received by falling on a heated stove and 
her clothes catching fire.  Mrs. Holt was subject to fainting spells and as 
she was alone when the terrible accident occurred, it is supposed that was the 
way it happened.  When she recovered consciousness she ran into the yard 
screaming with pain and all her clothes burned off her.  She lived several 
hours after her accident, suffering intense agony.  Only her great vitality 
kept her alive the eight hours that elapsed after the accident, as she was 
horribly burned.
