The boy had a severe cold and during the night had been inhaling fumes from a small lamp made es- pecially for that purpose. Awaken- ing at an early hour just after his mother had left the room and gone downstairs, the boy pulled the lamp from the table into bed and it set fire to the bed’ clothing. In trying to get away from the flames the lad became entangled in the bedding and was terribly burned about the hands and face before his mother was able to reach him, Operation of a light plant-in the basement prevented her from hear- ing his screams and she knew noth- ing of the fire until she saw smoke coming from the second floor. The flaming bed clothes were thrown out of the house immediately and blaze. Ray was brought to a local hos- pital immediately but his burns were so serious that he was unable to survive. Besides his mother, he leaves two sisters and five brothers, his grand. parents, and an uncle. The Rev. Paul S. Wright officiated at the funeral services today and inter- ment was in Fairview cemetery. Mrs. Delaney’s husband, who was an employe of the closed bank re- ceiver’s office here, died suddenly a year or so ago while away on a business trip, and a baby born soon after her husband’s death also! passed away a short time later. | | Flood Situation in West Is Less Serious Mar.
