AN AWFUL HOLOCAUST.
The Residence OF Samuel Wotring
Burns and with it Two of His
Children,


The residence of Mr.. Samuel W.
Wotring, residing about a mile
from Aurora, W. Va, near the
Garrett county line, was burned to
the ground at three o'clock Mon
day morning, together with all its
contents, but the loss of the house
is as nothing compared with the
burning of the unfortunate man S
two children, both boys, aged seven
and twelve years.
From what can be learned it
seems that the confagration was
caused by defective fue, and be-
fore the inmates of the house. were
aroused the flames had gained such
headway that Mr.. and Mrs. Wot-
ring escaped with only their night
clothes. They were sleeping on the
first floor and their children were in
an upper room to which a stairway
led but which burned before they
could make their escape. The
father raised a ladder to the window
and called his children to climb
down. The oldest boy climbed to
the ladder and was descending
when he became confus9d and
jumped back into the flames. The
mother was almost frantic and Mr.
Wotrng could render no aid to his
children on that account as it took
all his strength to restrain her from
rushing up the ladder and meeting
the sad fate of her boys. TIE
remains of one of the chill
dren was found but the other was
entirely consumed.
There was no insurance on the
house and the loss falls very heavily
upon Mr.. Wotring. The family in
their loss and great affliction have
the sympathy of the entire COM
munity.
