Notes

. . .Some five or six weeks since, Mrs. Boyd was severely burned by her clothes taking fire, while she was attending to her domestic duties; the flames, catching from behind, she did not discover them until she was in imminent danger. It occurred providentially that Mr. Boyd was in the house at an unusual hour, and came to her relief. With great difficulty, and after having his hands badly burned, he succeeded in tearing the clothes from her and quenching the fire. But she was left ina pitiful condition, and parched from her feet to her head. [4]
