ANGEL, (SON OF MRS. C. V.) - Sad Accident - A little son of Mrs. C. V. Angel, aged some three or four years, while his mother was at Church last Sunday morning, got hold of a box of lucifer matches which he ignited, setting his clothes on fire.  He was so badly burned and strangled with the poisonous vapor from the burning matches that he died the next day.
