phia Record, in the Reporters Nosegay
column, and told of a narrowing exper
fence which he had recently passed
through, but which did not turn out as
anticipated. The colonel and his wife
were driving home from FELTON, last Mon
day night, and when about halfway
there, noticed the reflection Of a fire in
the sky From the location both Colonel
Burnite and his wife were con-
fident that the flames were
issuing from their residence, and
grave fears at once arose as to the safety
of their children. Urged by the frantic
appeals of his wife, Colonel Burnite
dashed the horses to a foam, and upon ar
irving at their destination, discovered
that the house was safe, although the saw
mill was completely destroyed. But both
breathed a sigh of relief. and the colonel
says he didn't care a rap about the saw
mill, anyhow. when he saw that the
little ones were safe.
