The Cooperstown [Otsego Co. NY] Journal says: "We are called upon to record a painful accident which occurred at Beech's Hotel, in Cooperstown on Saturday May 27th, which resulted in the death of Anna L. Beach aged 3 years and 10 months, after suffering for about six hours from the effects of being scalded. A large pail of hot water had been prepared for doing some mopping and stood on the kitchen floor, the person who was to use it having gone for a mop, leaving the little one and two or three adults in the room. It is supposed the child was stepping backward and coming in contact with the pail, lost its balance and fell into the hot water, from which it was taken out in an instant more, its clothing removed, and the burned parts properly treated. The flesh from the shoulders to the feet was literally cooked."
