HARRY EMMONS'
HOME BURNED
Destroyed at Midday While Fam
lily Was at Church.
THE LOSS WAS COMPLETE
Startled on Return From Services by
Planes Bursting From Win
dows Of Their House at
Gordon Heights,

The old fashioned home Of Harry
Enmons, the weli-known attorney, on
the Gordon farm at Gordon Heights,
was destroyed by fire at noon yesterday.
MIR. Emmons and his family came to
Wilmington to attend services at the
Delaware Avenue Baptist Church. On
their return to Gordon Heights after
the services they were startled by the
sight Of flames bursting from the win
dows of the upper stories Of the house.
Efforts were made to save the household
furniture but they were futile, the flames
having gotten too much headway to per-
nit anyone to enter. A strong wind was
blowing. This famed the flames and
brought on destruction
Mr.. Emmons said yesterday afternoon
that he could not account for the origin
unless 1t be from mice igniting matches.
The servants were the only persons in
the house at the time the fire broke
out ON the upper floors. They were not
aware of the fire until after the flames
burst from the second story windows.
Mr. Emmons will rebuild. Temporar-
lily he will remain with the family of
J. Talley Smith, neighbor.
There was rumor that the house had
been entered by thieves and that after
plunderng the fire had started. This,
however is not considered likely.

The sudden death Of Melville Todd,
the 1S-months-old son of Mr.. and Mrs.
