The Landmark, April 1884 April 1884
From The Landmark, published at Statesville, N. C.  
****
 

The Rockingham Rocket says that on the 17th of April , a colored woman, EMMA 
SULLIVAN of Anson, was going from home and left her two children in the bed 
asleep. On her return she found the house in flames and the children were 
burned to death, while the mother was badly burned in her efforts to save 
them. Just before leaving the house she had gone to the bed to see that the 
children were properly covered and it is supposed that she dropped some fire 
on it from a pipe she was smoking.
