UKIAH, Cal. Sept. 26.— A toll of
one life is laid to the forest fires
which burned over a large area in
this section last week. Miss Elsie
Hatrick, 16-year-old daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. M. Hatrick of Point
Arena, died while she was seeking
refuge from the flames with her
mother and two younger members
of the family in a crevice in the
rocks along the Garcia River.
When the flames threatened the
ranch home of Morris Hatrick, a
brother whom the family and Roy
Woodhead, also of Point Arena
were visiting, it was decided that
Woodhead would take the mother
out of the danger zone. Their pro
gress was halted at the Garcia River
by the approach of the fire.
