Burned to Death.
 
  Little Margaret Emiline Beck, six year old daughter of Clyde and 
Elizabeth Beck, of Warrior's Mark valley, was burned to death on 
Monday, January 1. The parents were busy in an out kitchen, when the 
little girl who had been playing at another stove, ran to them 
enveloped in a flame of fire.  The father hurriedly extinguished the 
flames, but not before they had gotten in their deadly work, as the 
little one passed away about 5:30 o'clock Monday evening, after passing 
through excruciating pain.  She is survived by her parents and two 
sisters, Frances and Hazel Beck.  The funeral will occur on Wednesday 
afternoon, at 2.30 o'clock. The services will be in charge of Rev. 
Courtley, pastor of the Lutheran church.
