CRAMER, of Mill Creek township, was so badly burned last Sunday that she died in the most excrutiating pain during the day. She was standing with her back to the stove blacking her little brothers shoes, when her clothing caught on fire. Her mother was in the house and attempted to smother the flames, but not succeeding the girl ran out into the yard to her father, and before the fire could be extinguished the fatal injuries were received. Her clothes and skin were literally burned off. A.J. RIDEOUT, who came to town Monday for the coffin, furnishes us the particulars of the terrible affair. ==== KS-FOOTSTEPS Mailing List ==== File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ks/washington/obits/c/cramer122ob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/ksfiles/ File size: 1.3 Kb
