Monday, May 3, 1897 - The Pilot - Four Year Old Child of Mr. and Mrs. Hagge

The four year old child of Mr. and Mrs. Hagge, renters on the Chris Wulff place about four miles northwest of Blair, was so badly burned last Friday that it died Sunday. Mr. Hagge was burning straw in the field and while he was some distance from the children the little one got too near the blaze with the above result. It is a very sad case and THE PILOT joins many friends in extending sympathy to the bereaved family. Mr. Hagge was so badly burned on the hands that he is unable to attend to his work at all.
