Fatally Burned by Gasoline

Mrs. M. B. Corbin, wife of Dr. Corbin, a well-known citizen of Hazelton, was fatally burned at her home in that city while heating paint over a stove. She poured gasoline, supposing it to be turpentine. An explosion followed, and Mrs. Corbin’s clothing caught fire. She retained consciousness several hours when she died in great agony.
