THREE ARE SERIOUSLY BURNED AT HATTON: MOTHER, DAUGHTER, AND LITTLE SON SUFFER FROM ACCIDENTS OF LAST WEEK.
Dr. Burnham was called to Hatton, Monday of last week to give medical aid to Mrs. J. Hunt and her mother who were badly burned as the result of some kerosene being spilled upon a red hot stove. Mrs. Hunt had gone over to her mothers, Mrs. Ireland's home just east of the railroad and was standing with her back to the stove when her little brother knocked an open can of kerosene off a shelf onto the hot stove, the contents splashing all over Mrs. Hunt's back and instantly catching fire. Mrs Ireland rushed to her daughter's aid and badly burned her own hands in removing Mrs. Hunt's clothing. The latter is in serious condition but doing as well as could be expected, considering that so great a portion of her body was burned. The following day, Tuesday, when Dr. Burnham was out of town, Dr. Stitt of Risingsun went to dress the burns and placed his instruments in some boiling hot water to sterilize them. The little two year old son knocked the vessel off the stove and the contents deluged him, severely scalding him. Later Mrs Hunt died and was buried Thursday and the little boy has scarlet fever.∼"Mrs. Jacob Hunt, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L.D. Ireland, accidentally spilled coal oil near her stove, and died in a kitchen fire Wednesday night. She is survived by her husband, her parents and brothers and sisters."
