Mrs. CASSIDY, a Leader of Society in East Orange, Burned While Nursing Him. Article Text: While ministering to the wants of her sick son, Mrs. John C. CASSIDY was so seriously burned at her home in East Orange that she died today, after suffering torture for several hours. Worn out by her constant vigils at the beside of her son, John, Mrs. CASSIDY retired early last night, but was called about 10 o'clock to prepare a hot application for the young man. She prepared a mixture, whose chief ingredient was alcohol, and while heating it in a tin cup over a lamp the alcohol exploded, drenching the devoted mother in a blase of flames. Mrs. CASSIDY screamed in agony and terror as the firey deluge wrapped her in its embrace. She wore only a flimsy wrapper, which burned like tinder, a mass of flames instantly flaring high above her head. Sick as he was, her son sprang from bed and calling for help strove to beat out the flames. Mrs. CASSIDY ran hither and thither shrieking in agony. Her cries rang through the mansion, and her two daughters, with Mr. CLEMENTS, a guest at the house, ran to the room. Bravely they fought the fire, wrapping Mrs. CASSIDY in rugs and blankets, and clinging to her in spite of serious burns received by each of them until the flames had been smothered. >From head to foot Mrs. CASSIDY was a mass of burns. Two doctors and a trained nurse were instantly summoned, and Mr. CASSIDY, who was calling nearby, was hurriedly sent for. Mrs. CASSIDY, however, had inhaled the flames and was beyond hope. After suffering excruciating agony for several hours, she passed into unconsciousness, which mercifully lasted until the end. He son was so prostrated by the shock of the tragedy in his sickroom that he collapsed as soon as the fire was out, and his condition is so serious that the doctors give little hope of his recovery. The curtains and _________ in the room were set afire during the fight for life, but the blase was promptly quenched. Mrs. CASSIDY was the wife of John C. CASSIDY, head of the firm of John C. CASSIDY & Co., manufacturers of gas and electric light fixtures, on West Twenty third street, New York. She was strikingly handsome and had long been a society leader in that wealthy suburban colony. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NY-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
