Mrs. Robert Threatt met a horrible death at her home in the village of the Lancaster Cotton Mill last Wednesday. It seems that she was alone in the house all morning, her husband and children being at work in the mill and it was through a neighbor who happened to stop by to see Mrs. Threatt, that her bodv wan found before the return of her family for dinner at noon. The visitor, receiving no response after several knocks at the door, opened It to find the house full of smoke. She distinguished also the odor of burning flesh. Calling a man who was passing by at the time, the two soon found the body of Mrs. Threatt lying on the kitchen floor about a fool from the stove. It was burned almost beyond recognition. The unfortunate woman's clothing evidently caught from the fire she was probably mnklng. by which tc prepare dinner.
