Funeral Services Today
Waynesburg, Dec. 18 - The heroism of two blind sisters failed to prevent the
death of a third sister, also blind, who was fatally burned in her home near
Time on Friday and died on Saturday.
Death came to Miss Flora Huffman, 70, Saturday, December 17, at 8 a.m.,
in the home of Thomas E. Ealy, near Time, Nineveh, R.D.1, where she made her
home.

clothing was ignited by a gas heating stove.

efforts were unavailing. Their screams attracted Mrs. Ealy from another part

away and a large part of her body was seriously burned.
As far as known here, the three sisters have been blind all their lives.
