The many friends of Mr. and Mrs, Joel McCornack, who reside near Florence will be pained to hear of the sad affliction that overtook them Christmas morning, by which their infant son lost his life. A correspondent has favored us with the facts in the case as follows:
Editor Gaurd: A fatal accident occured at Clover Lawn, the home of Mr. and Mrs, Joel Mccornack, early on Christmas morning. The children, happy in their christmas gifts, were by themselves for a brief time, the youngest sitting in his high chair by the stove. The mother, busy with household cares in another room was soon startles by the agonizing cries, "Ma, the baby's clothes are on fire." It was too true, and everything which love could do was done to relieve the cruel pain. But all was to no avail, for the next day the eyes of the precious and beautiful boy were closed to all earthly scenes.
