58. If any person who has attained the age of sixteen years, having the custody, charge or care of any child under the age of seven years, allows the child to be in any room containing an open fire not sufficiently protected to guard against the risk of his being burnt or scalded without taking reasonable precautions against that risk and by reason thereof the child is killed or suffers serious injury, he shall be guilty of an offence and shall be liable to a fine not exceeding .50.
