A FEARFUL DEATH.
Terrible Scenes at the Deathbed of a
SMALLPOX Patient az Scranton.

The New York Herald has special from
Scranton, Pa, saying William Cook, a
miner, who was smitten with small pox
several days ago, died a horrible death in
his home at the Hampton mines, short
distance from Scranton, about one o'clock.
His wife and baby several weeks old were
the only persons In the house with the sick
man during the last days OF his illness, and
this morning, when she thought he was
dying, Mrs. Cook placed lighted candle
In her husbands hand, and sat In chair
q short distance from his bedside to
await the solemn issue. Overcome by IA
tigue and loss of rest, she fell asleep, and
the candle In the hand of the dying man
burned through the rigid fingers and set the
bed clothing on fire. Mrs. Cook was startled
from her sleep, but swooned again, and
fell helpless on the floor. The smoke in
the room was suffocating her. The light
from the burning bed attracted the stten-
tion Of the neighbors. The place was on
the first floor, and the scene was plainly wit
messed through the window, but fear of the
horrible malady hindered everybody from
going to the rescue, until at last two men,
who formerly had the disease, troke
through the door and carried out the sense
less wife and babe. They then recovered
the body of the unfortunate man, from the
bones of which the flesh had been burned,
and placed it In box, after which the fire
was eXtinguished. Mrs. Cook and her baby
are recovering, and she is so far improved
as to be able to narrate the sad circumstance
of the affair.

Death Of q Remarkable Man.
HJy.ks.o..-J T1{.-.-.&.S


Nathan Enroughty Darby died on
residence of his son Willis, near NAL
vern Hill. The deceased was the eldest
Of the family well known in this section,
whose name by some singular perver-
sion being called Darby instead Of En-
roughly has given rise to numberleas
genealogical discussions, and all Of them
fruitless. Nathan Darby was, according
to the report of a neighbor. about 3
hundred years of age, but Richmond
gentlemen who knew him long and well
think that statement exaggerated,
but are confident that he was
over ninety, and most probably
about ninety two. He was a soldier Of
the war of 1919, and pensioner of the
government, and away into middle age
was remarkable for his great strength
and endurance. Many are the anecdotes
told concerning his physical contests
Certain it is that 10 man of his time
dared to claim superiority over him in
struggle where the weapons of nature
were the only ones to be employed. 1t
is related of him that some thirty
five years ago he came to Rich
mond and went to Sadler's restau-
rant. on Main street, opposite the Old
Market, and there a crowd of dozen
men began tantalizing him. The result
was that the old gentleman's dander
rose aud-so the story goes-he knocked
followed by Mr. Darby, who chased him
out of the room and struck at him as he
closed the door behind him. Mr..
Darby's blow missed the man and
struck the door with such violence that
his arm was shattered That he carried
his arm in a sling for long time, and
that the above was the current eXplana-
nation, is we'll remembered by some Of
our elderly citizens.
Mr.. Darby was a Henry Clay Wing,
was active at the polls, and in the anil
mated political strifes of those times he
had many encounters, wherein he show
ed his prowess. And yet his reputation
was that of a man who never made
causeless quarTels, and who never i'm
posed upon the weak or took unfair ad-
vantage of an adversary.
Deceased was the father of quite q
large family. Frank. one of his sons,
lives on the Turkey Island farm; another,
Nathaniel, keeps store near Malvern
Hill; he died at the residence of Willis
Darby; and still another son, now dead,
was on our police force. OF other
children we have no account. MIR.
Darby had been blind for eleven years,
and was thus doomed to an inactivity
which was in strong contrast with
the vigor and energy of his earlier
years. He died Saturday night, and
was buried near his home. His
neighbors speak of him as a man of
integrity, and have quite as many anec-
dotes of his kindness as of his feats of
strength. The popular family name has
been given to a settlement and to road
-Darbytown and DarbytOwn rOad-and
in that section of Henrico numerous
kinsmen survive him, all of whom sign
their names Enroughty, and are called
Darby
