Bio

Born in Bohemia Age 32 Church Record BURNED TO DEATH.--A WOMAN IN THE TOWN OF WHEATLAND, WIFE OF MATHIAS STICHA, WAS SO BADLY BURNED BY KEROSENE THAT SHE DIED FROM HER INJURIES ON MONDAY LAST. SHE WAS POURING OIL INTO A LAMP WHILE THE LATTER WAS BURNING, WHEN THE FIRE CAUGHT AND RAN INTO THE CAN, EXPLODING IT. THE OIL FLEW OVER HER PERSON, AND SHE WAS AT ONCE COVERED WITH FLAMES. HER HUSBAND WAS IN THE YARD, AND SHE RAN OUT. HE SUCCEEDED IN EXTINGUISHING THE FLAMES, THOUGH IN DOING SO WAS HIMSELF BADLY BURNED. THE FLESH ON THE POOR WOMAN'S BODY WAS BURNED SO THAT HER RIBS WERE VISIBLE. From Faribault Republican Newspaper 29 Oct 1873
