Whittemore, who is also mayor of Marengo, suffered painful burns about his arms, face and neck -one dlur list week. He was in the act of making some adjustments on his automobile and was laying on his back underneath the ear when suddenly his clothing caught rfre. Presence of mind and quick action saved him from more terrible injuries when he rushed out to a newly plowed garden and by rolling himself in the dirt he succeeded in extinguishing the flames. The blase, it is thought, was caused by a short cireuit of wires on the car.
