Little Cecil Eldred, a Waterloo four-year-old boy was burned to death last Friday afternoon by setting his own clothes on fire while showing his sister how to smoke. The family dog in the excitement prevented strangers from getting to and assisting the child.

Transcriber’s Note: Find a Grave shows he is buried in Poyner Cemetery in Gibertville and that he was born January 18, 1900 and died August 26, 1904.
