BRGUNTNGTON.
a most distressing occurrence took
place in Bloomington last Wednesday. \
small house on the farm of Mr. A. c. JOS
Ign, occupied by Mr.. Collins, took fire
and burned down with three children in
it, Mrs. Collins went to Mr.. Joslyn's to
borrow some article and was gone but a
few minutes, and when she started to re-
turn saw smoke issuing from the house
She ran and on reaching the house opened
the door, when the flames came out with
such force Us to deter her. but making an
other trial andnot being able to enter asked
Where are You, children ?" From the
room came the reply, Here we are, moth
er " yet she could not or dared not, reach
them, and thus they persisted before her
eyes 1t seem, very strange to US that
she could not have reached them in room
where they could live and make answer
But fright had probably taken her true
reason from her, as it does in most such
cases The Oldest child was four, and
tn other two-twins-were fourteen
months
