Child Burned to Death.
Mason City Republican—On Monday a three years old little girl of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Nelson was so badly burned that it died during the night. She was alone in the house and it is thought got to playing with matches. Her mother found the little one on the floor with her clothing burned off. She was a great sufferer and death came as a happy relief.
