Clothing Catching Fire


Austin Lindell, 45, who was burned at his home, near Alexandria, died Saturday as a result of his injuries. Lindell was trying to kindle a fire when the accident occurred. The flames were communicated to his clothing and he ran screaming with pain from the house. His wife and sister-in-law overtook him and succeeded in extinguishing the flames that enveloped him, but the burns were so deep that they caused his death.

Lindell made his home with his brother-in-law, George Pryor and leaves a widow but no children.
