Bass, Mary Emma Nichols

Mrs. Bass occupied a separate room from her husband, and the first the family knew of the accident was Mrs. Bass ran into the room of her mother-in-law with her clothing in flames. The fire was put out but the flames had done their awful work.

The victim lingered in great agony until 9 o'clock Sunday night and passed to the great beyond. The family have the sympathy of the AUTOGRAM in their great bereavement.
