Mrs. Jno. W. Dupree - The Wire Grass Reporter, Wednesday, May 26, 1858
Death by Fire. We are extremely pained to learn that Mrs. Jno. W. Dupree of this county
was burned to death on Friday last. Her dress caught fire, and before any assistance could be
rendered, she was so severely burned as to survive but twenty-four hours.
This is another instance of the fatal consequences of wearing hoops unless with great
caution and circumspection. As much as we admire them, we prefer to see them abandoned rather
than they should cause such a sacrifice of human life.— Sumter News.
