BOLLINGER, FEMALE
(2 Nov 1916, Elk City Newspaper, Elk City Beckham Co, OK):
CHILD BURNED TO DEATH.
A little two year old child of Mr. Bollinger, of Sayre, was burned to
death last Friday.  It is thought that she spilled coal oil on her
clothes, and flames ignited from the fire in the stove.  When discovered
nothing could be done for the child and death resulted.  The funeral
services were held on Saturday.  The father was sick in the El Reno
Hospital with typhoid fever, and it was thought the mother would have to
be taken to the asylum.
