She inadvertently trod on one which was lying at her feet on the floor ; as she leant out at the window talking to one of her relatives ; HER I SUMMER DRESS WAS US A BLAZE BEFORE SHE WAS AWARE OF IT , and before anyone could run to her rescue , she sank to the ground in an agony of pain , from which only DEATH RELEASED HER .
