Mildred MccPin was born Jan. 21. 1925, and died Jan 20. 1930. Altho her sojourn here was short, she had entwined herself around the hearts of her loved ones by her sunny disposition.. On Monday morning of last week she climbed down from her little bee bright and cheerful, and ran into ar adjoining room to the warmth of a glowing fire in an open fireplace. There was only a few minutes until the screams of the other children brought her parents int othe room, and there they beheld her in a blaze of fire, for in some way her little gown had become ignited. Before the fire could be extinguished her little body was so badly burned that death resulted a few hours later in the Roa noke Rapids hospital. She was the infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Forest C. Medlin of Wel don. Funeral services for little Mildred were held at the home and interment was made in Smith’s Church cemetery. Mr. and Mrs. Medlin have the heart felt sympathy of the community and while they grieve and feel the loss of little Mildred, they have this consola tion that she is, “Safe in the aims of Jesue, Safe from corroding care. Safe from the world’s temptations, Sin cannot harm her there. “Safe in the arms of Jesus, Safe on His gen.h breast.
