A Child Scalded To Death

On Tuesday morning a boy named William Neale, aged two years and three mouths, living with his father, a collier, at Denaby, died in consequence of being scalded on the previous afternoon.

The child pulled a cup of hot tea off the table, and the liquid was spilled on his face and breast.
