CHILD CAUSED DEATH
OF MOTHER BY KICK

El Reno Okla. July 17-A peculiarly sad death occurred in this city yesterday evening when Mrs. Beulah Gilmore, wife of Hollis Gilmore, was called to rest.
Early in the afternoon, Mr. and Mrs. Gilmore were at home in the Gilmore flats, playing with their baby daughter, Helen, aged two years.
The little one ran to her mother, who tossed her up at arm's length. In descending, the little girl struck her knee against the mother's stomach.
