Backre from the furnace door is thought highly pos- sible. and frenzy when she was agon- ized by the bums might have caused her to seize the nearby knife and take her life, it is considered. Nightdress Burned When I arrived I could nd only a piece of her nightclothes about four or l five inches long and scorched by am- es," stated Chief Herman. There were i a couple of other very small pieces. ; Not far1`rom the furnace. in fact. a- ; bout ve feet away, was a small pile of 1 ashes which appeared to be from cloth."

It is suggested that her light night dress ma`-y have been ignited when she op-A ened the furnace door and the flames; have enveloped her before she could make any attempt to save herself. No Motive Known This possibility is lent strength by the declaration of -friends and relatives, that the young woman was of an ex- ceedingly cheerful disposition and had not been morose or worried before her death. It has also been asked why would she ignite her clothes if she had contemplated death by a knife?
