Burtons in Destitution Face Typhoid and Death in Lansing

A Burton family, recently moved from the city to Lansing, endured dire poverty and overcrowded quarters. Four children and Mrs Barton fell ill with typhoid fever and a fifth with Bright's disease, all sharing one room. They owned only a stove an old bedstead a crib a table a lamp a broken accordion two sheets an old quilt and the clothes they wore. Lack of bedding forced them to lie on the floor. A child died soon after. Mrs Barton died Monday night amid worsening conditions. The Lansing Republican recounts the scene as officers found the family in squalor and illness.
