Rena Bell Breffle
Bainbridge Republican, July 2, 1880
On Thursday last a little daughter of Albert Breffle, of the Breffle House at South New Berlin [Chenango Co., NY], was burned so terribly that death ensued the following day. The little girl, with other children, had been building fires with chips and sticks, and burning potato bugs, and one of the children went to the house and brought the kerosene oil can, in order to increase the fire by pouring its inflammable contents upon the chips. Getting the can too near the fire it exploded, throwing the burning mass completely over the little girl's clothing,...The little one was a bright and lovely child and her death strikes her parents with crushing weight and overwhelming affliction.
