A FAMILY BURNED TO DEATH.

Fyo. The Grand Rapids Mich Easui,e- Of Oct NJ
One Of the most appalling calamities that ever oc-
CURED in Kent County, transpned on Tuesday night.
A dwelling house and It's contents, including man,
bis wife and children, totally destroyed by are,
without any living person knowing anything of the
matter until the next morning, when the house had
disappe AIRED. The facts Of the are as follows
Hiram Robinson recently exchanged farm in
Georgetown, Ottawa County, for farm in Gaines,
eight miles from this city, on the kalamazoo plank
read. Monday and Tuesday Robinson was engaged
in removing his family and goods. The neighbors saw
nothing OF him after nightfal
II ia supposed that he and hs wife retired early, on
account the very fa'igung labors of the day From
the evening of Tuesday to the morning OF Wednesday,
every thing remains impenetrabe mystery. Prob.
ably the building caught fire from the sove-pipe, and
as the tenement was Of boards it was soon in blaze.
Owing to fatigue, Mr.. Robinson and his family were
probably not awakened until too late to escape. That
they attempted to escape is shown from the tact that
the bodies Of both and wife found lying par
italy beyond the door-si Of the house, aud the young
est child an infant outside the location of the house.
1t is believed that when they ascertaned their dan
ger they rushed to the door and forced il open, but
that IN so doing, some Of the upper heavy burning
tmbes fell upon and cast the pair to the ground, Gov
ering the entire family with horrible inextricable
bath of fire, and soon destroying life.
