CHILD ELECTROCUTED
IN HOME ACCIDENT

Elizabeth Lynn Coogan, 2-year old daughter of Mrs. C. P. Coogan of
Jersey City, N.J., died instantly Monday at 9 a.m. when she brushed
a radiator and a shorted floor lamp.

Her mother told a Snodgrass mortuary official the girl was playing
in the front room of her aunt's home, Mrs. Charles Lesueur at 17
Curry St., Armor Park, and had crawled between a radiator and a
floor lamp.

The little girl apparently touched a shorted floor lamp and the
radiator at the same time and electrocuted herself.

She and her mother were staying with Mrs. Lesueur for a short visit.
Her father is stationed with the marines in New Jersey.
