HUMAN FIEND. 1.-The sad story Of the
death by freezing Of the family Of Richard
Daniels, Of Lynn, Coco, who was forced out
10 the cold By the burning of house few
| DAYS ago, awakened universal sympathy. The
| sequel of the story, By which it appears that
the father was the worst kind of 6eDd, 10 hu
man shape, cannot but awaken universal iOdig
nation The father, it seems, is most bru
tai fellow, and the reason why the chill
dren did moi call 90 the neigbbors for
help was because be had denounced the most
terrible threats against them if they ever
called for assistance from the ueighbors.
He made these threats anew when he came home
on Saturday night and found that they had been
forced to beg. He had even punt. he'd them for
teen Years old, found dead and naked, had
chemise on when she left the house, but it had
| b en- torn off BY the others to keep them warm.
