It appears that during the temporary absence of the mother, his clothes took fire from the grate, and before the flames could be extinguished he was so shockingly burned as to be beyond the hope of recovery. The little sufferer lingered in great agony till Tuesday evening, when death put an end to his sufferings. Democratic Standard, Hollidaysburg, Pa., Wednesday, December 17, 1862
