TRIBUNE (Loyal, Clark County, Wis.) 10/18/1917 Fabian, Edith
(1914 - 9 OCT 1917) Tuesday afternoon
while Mrs. Clarence Fabian of the town of York, Clark County, Wis.
was out looking after the cattle, she heard screams from the house
and hastening in found her little 3-year-old daughter Edith burning
up, her clothes quite burned off. Mr. Fabian, who was in the
village shopping, was, with Dr. Rath, hastily summoned home. They
brought the little one here by auto to the Rice Davis home, where
the best of care was given her, but death was too near. The little
sufferer passed on into the great beyond about 8 o'clock that
evening. Just how the child
set herself afire is not known. It will be remembered that this
family lost all their household goods and personal effects in a
fire about a year ago, when their home, then on the Cash Ide farm,
burned down. The family now lives on the Jack Parrott farm in the
town of York. (Granton News) © Every submission is protected by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act
