King Route 2, March 10—Mrs. Dolphus Webster was very badly burned last Friday. She got up about 4 o’clock and was preparing to start a fire in the stove when her clothing ignited in some way and was almost completely burned from her body. It is learned that Mrs. Webster is suffering very much from the burns.
Mr. Lum Boyles, while chopping a few days since, had the misfortune to let a tree fall on him, rendering him unconscious for some time. He was badly hurt but is improving at this writing.
Mr. N.S. Combs, a successful farmer of the Oak Grove section, is seriously ill at his home and has been so for several days. There has not been very much traveling going on in this section for a few weeks on account of muddy roads.
The farmers of this community are about through burning plant land and have started plowing.
