Marcie Fluitt, Age 3, Fatally Burned When She Falls On Stove

Marcie, the little three year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Fluitt, fell
on a heating stove Tuesday morning about ten thirty while playing and was
fatally burned.  Mrs. Fluitt left the children for a few minutes to go to the
kitchen and it is said that she heard one of them scream and thinking that
they were only playing she finished what she was doing before returning to the 
room where she found Marcie with almost all her clothes burned off and body
seared.  Still conscious, she was attended by a physician who removed her to
the local clinic where she died at two thirty o'clock the same afternoon.

Funeral services conducted by the Rev. A. H. Cullen were held Wednesday at
three o'clock with interment in the Winnfield Cemetery.
