BURNT TO DEATH.
NEW PLYMOUTH, September 26.
The police have received information that Miss Rowe, aged twenty-five, was burnt to death in bed last night at Huirangi. The discovery was made this morning. Apparently the bed-clothes had become ignited and the fumes had smothered the victim, while the absence of any draught had prevented the fire from spreading.
