AGED WOMAN DIED TUESDAY

From Burns Due To Smoking a Pipe In Bed

Mrs. Elizabeth Yates, one of the well known residents of Symmes township, died at her home from the effects of burns received Sunday. Mrs. Yates had been ill for some time and while smoking her pipe the bed clothes caught fire, burning her fatally before help could be summoned. Mrs. Yates was 83 years of age and was the mother of Jacob Yates, who died yesterday morning in the Roosevelt Hospital from wounds inflicted in the revolver duel Saturday evening with Charles Richendollar.

The funeral services will be conducted this afternoon at 2 o’clock from the home with burial in the Yates cemetery under the direction of Phillips of Waterloo.
