Stillwater, Oklahoma March 1921 March 18, 1907 ~ March 26, 1921 Gas fumes caused the death of Onie Carter, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Carter, 202 Lewis Street , Saturday night. Saturday afternoon the family was preparing for Easter, and Onie was helping in the household work. After supper, Mrs. Carter went next door to see her sister. During her absence Onie went to the bathroom, preparing to go with some girlfriends to a party. Waiting a long time, the household became alarmed.Knocking on the bathroom door and calling her name, no reply came. The door was pounded in, and there lay the girl dead, with a big bump on her brow. where she had fallen against the tub. The mystery of the death is that Onie had taken her bath and had put on her underclothing. The gas heater under the water tank had been turned off, but the fumes of gas burst forth when the door was opened, and these must have caused suffocation. Funeral was held at the Christian Church Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock, Virtes Williams conducting the services. |
