Aged Man Falls Asleep Clothing Catches Fire Old in yeara, but with a resil??t and adventurous spirit of youth still coursing through his blood, R. A. Golden, 00, of Oklahoma, reached a pause in his travels last night. The weather was biting cold and the wind was whipping over th4 countryside. The aged man ws$ chilled after an all day ride in his wagon. He had driven two mules to Spartanburg from Greenville. Stopping his mules at a point near the city on the national highway Golden released them from their harness, built a small Are and sat down by it to thaw out, as it were. The warmth of the cheery little blaze felt good to the aged man. Its comfort contrasted pleasingly to the piercing cold at the wintry blaete. As the 90-year-old traveler sat dreamily reminiscing about his little ,cnmpftre, watching the red tongues of dame leap up from glowing coals, he grew drowsy. His head nodded. He fell asleep. * * ... Suddenly an unusually strong gust of wind swept the flames of his flre across him. -/The sleeve of his coat was caught by the flre. The flames spread through his .clothes and down one side of his body before he awakened. When Golden roused himself he had been seriously burned. Passing motorists assisted him to the General hospital, where he received medical treatment and was put to bed. Doctors are doubtful whether the aged man will recover from the burns that cover an arm and his right side. ?Sunday's Spartanburg Herald.
