    HEADLEY
  
    A Hyndman RD 1 woman accidentally bled to death at her home on Dec. 5. 
  According to Somerset County Coroner Wilbur D. Miller, Ledia M. Headley,
  34, died of shock due to massive hemorrhage and acute alcoholism.  Miller
  conducted an autopsy at the Somerset Community Hospital and reported that
  the deceased's blood-alcohol reading was .34.  (A person with a reading of
  .10 is considered to be intoxicated.)
    The death was listed as accidental.  Reports indicate that Headley went
  to a nearby bar alone on Dec. 4 and apparently fell several times while on
  her way back home.  Sometime during the night, she went into the bathroom
  where she bled to death.  Her body was found by John R. Parson, 47, with
  whom she resided.
