Griggs Sentinel: We have used ev-
cry reasonable effort to learn the par
ticulars of a fatal burning southwest
of Hannaford, Thursday night, but
there appears to be a remarkable
dearth of reliable information on the
subject, and "a number of conflicting
stories. All agree, however, that two
men, Haverstad and Evenson, were
sleeping in a building on the farm of
Lars Warberg in section 1S-144-6O, on
Thursday night and the building took
hre and was burned down. That both
men escaped from the building but
Havestad re-entered it to get his
money and papers and lost his life in
tne flames. No investigation was
made by the authorities, and there
seems to be no suspicion in the neigh
borhood but what lit was purely an ac-
cident. The coroner knew nothing of
1T until Tuesday evening, long after
the remains Of the dead man, had been
shipped to his relatives in Wisconsin.
