-FOUR COLORED CHILDREN
DIE WHEN HOME BURNS.

Hemmed in by flames that gripped
their home, four children of Isaiah
johnson and wife, cOlOred, living in a
tenant house on Representative Oliver
A. Newton's farm, near Bridgeville,
were roasted to death on Thursday
morning, February 14th, after their
parents and two oldest brOthers--E Eddie,
aged u years, and Norman, aged 10,
had barely escaped from the dwelling.
The house occupied by johnson and
family was about a quarter Of mile
from Mr.. NewtOn's dwelling, and was
a small frame affair. Johnson had been
in Mr.. NewtOn's employ for many
wears. He and his wife and six children
were sleeping in the dwelling when the
mother was aroused about 3 o'clock
by one of her children screaming, and
discovered that the entire building was
a mass of flames. A chimney ran
through the middle Of the dwelling and
it is supposed that the stairway caught
fire from the overheated fue. The roof
was about to topple in when Mrs john
son was aroused, and in her fright after
aroHsing the family she leaped from a
second. story window to the ground.
johnson darted down the stairs, and
the two oldest children also jumped
through the second. story window. Four
children were left in the bedroom, with
their escape cut off by the spreading
flames. At the mercy Of the blaze they
were gradually roasted to death, despite
the frantic efforts of the father to get
to them, only to be forced back each
time by the fiery furnace into which
the interior of the house was trans
formed. The oldest child burned was
BERTHE, aged 8 years, and another was
Elsie, aged 6. The third was Howard,
4 years old, and the youngest Laura,
l7fmonths old.
The embeTs were carried from the
burning building to barn on the farm
of Philip L. Cannon adjoining and it
was entirely destroyed. 1t contained
some hay and grain, but no stock. Mr..
Newton was notified Of the fatal fire
shortly after it occurred, and he placed
the johnson family in another dwell
ing. The charred bodies Of the children
were found in the ruins.

Death of Mrs. Ellenor H. FouIk.

Mrs. Ellenor H. Cropper, widow OF
the late Jacob Y. Foulk, died on Sun
day afternoon, February 18th, 1907, at
her home on North street, Milford, Della
ware, aged rs years. Mrs. FOulk was
born August p, 1880 Of Jabez H. and
Ellenor Hitch Chopper, and had been
life long resident Of the town.
Her father was prominent in the
earlier business interests of the town.
He served in the War of 1912. In his
earlier life be was a slave holder, but
freed his slaves some time before the war
Mrs. FOulk herself always took large
interest in public affairs both of her
own town, State and nation. During
the Civil War while company of
Federal soldiers were quartered in the
Methodist Church, near her home, she
supplied the soldiers with coffee, food
and clothing. She was active in all
that concerned the welfare of the town.
In earlier life she was a member Of the
Methodist Church.
On May 5, 1850, she was married to
Jacob Y. FOulk and some time after
united with the Presbyterian Church.
At the time Of her death she was the
oldest member Of that church, having
been connected with it from within
eight years after its organization In
its earlier history her home was the
stopping place of the most of the min
listers who come to the church and
many who came as strangers to the
town felt the warmth Of her welcome,
and it is not too much to say that the
Presbyterian Church owes much Of its
early life to her own and Mr.. Foulk's
hospitality and efforts.
Mrs. Foulk was a woman of strong
personal character Her sympathies
were broad and generous. She was
open handed in her kindness and filled
richly the place Of friend and nelghbOr.
She had strong convictions and excel
lent judgment and few who touched
her but felt her influence in her charac-
ter and life.
During her later years she knew much
of afiiiction, both in personal suffering
and the loss of her sight for the past
fifteen years and in the removal from
her Of her husband and four adult chill
dren yet her strong faith and christian
courage enabled her to maintain the
habit Of cheerfulness and to forget her
self in thought and care for others.
The deceased leaves to mourn her
loss one son, Lieutenant ]. J. FoHlk,
and one daughter, Miss May FOulk,
vino for fifteen years has been engaged
as teacher in the public schools Of our
town. Funeral services were held on
afternoon from her late home,
Rev. H. L. Bunstein officiating, inter
ment being made at Odd Fellows |
Cemetery.
