Died of Its Injuries.

  About noon on Saturday a little son of Mr. John B. Richardson, 
residing at West Huntingdon, was fatally scalded.  Mrs. Richardson had 
partially filled a bucket with scalding water to be used in her 
household work, and setting it down for a moment while she went into 
another room, the little boy accidentally fell into it, and  before he 
could be rescued his limbs and lower portion of his body were so 
severely scalded as to cause his death about 5 o'clock the same 
afternoon.  We sympathize with the stricken parents in their sad 
bereavement.
