		M	i	Frank Whitaker was born 1 in 1868 in Pennsylvania, USA. He died 2 on 18 Jul 1879 in Elkland, Tioga County, Pennsylvania, USA from Accidental death by explosion of powder. -At Elkland, Pa, July 18, Frank, aged eleven years, (son of John C. Whitaker, Jr., mail agent on the Elkland Branch,) was fatally injured by the explosion of a piece of gas-pipe that he and several other small boys had fitted up as a small cannon. His face was fearfully mangled, both eyes put out, a portion of the cheek and jaw being shattered. He died in three hours. The parents were absent from home at the time of the accident, and were horrified on returning to find the son dying. We learn that the boys had found a short piece of gas-pipe, bent or hammered one end to make it tight, to answer for a breech, drilled a vent-hole, and filled the extemporized "cannon" with powder, wadding and gravel, so as to make a loud report. - They used some waste as a fuse to light the powder. It burned slowly, Frank stood over it to see whether it was extinguished, when it exploded, bursting the gas-pipe and causing his death.
