Three Children Burned
In Fire at Triggs Home
The youngest daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Arthur Triggs, reported
to be about a year old, is in
critical condition in the hospital
from burns suffered this noon
from a fire at the Trigg residence.
Stella Trigg, who is about six
years old, is also in the hospital
with burns on her face, back, and
arm, sustained when she poured
what she thought was oil in the
stove. The explosion which fol
lowed burned the children, set
ting fire to their clothing.
The oldest of the three children
in the house, who is about 16
years old, made a heroic effort
to put out the fire, throwing out
the burning can, which started
a blaze under the porch of the
dwelling, causing negligible dam
age. No damage was reported
within the house.
The father, Arthur Triggs, was
working at the time at the Polar
Bar and the mother of the chil
dren was employed at Jinx Cafe.
The Triggs residence is on
King’s Way at Mettler Way.
