THOMAS ROBERTS. OAK HILL, JACKSON COUNTY, OHIO.
December 12th. THOMAS ROBERTS, son of John and Margaret Roberts, near Sardis, Oak Hill, about 5 years old.His death was caused by his clothes catching fire a day or two earlier - when his mother was on an errand in one of the houses in the district - and only he and a small child smaller than him in the house.
He was buried in Oak Hill, when Rev. J. W. Evans (Calvinistic Methodist) was the preacher.
Here is a warning again to parents to be careful against this devastating element.
