Turpitt and Wife, Burns.

6peCldi TO iINoS-fSepuOllCdIl.
GAINESVILLE. March about 1880
o'clock Sunday morning an alarm of
fire was turned in, to which the fire
company quickly responded. 1t proved
to be the home of Timothy Turpitt and
wife, about three-quarters of a mile
west of town. which was a total loss
when the firemen arrived. The aged
couple had succeeded in dragging a
mattress from a lounge and were
found sitting on 1t. with nothing but
their night clothes on. Those who ar
rived first took off their overcoats,
overshoes. ETC., and wrapped them up,
until Willis Sutcliffe came with his
auto and took them to Mr.. Spencer's,
nearby neighbor. where they are both
in serious condition. A doctor was
called this morning. Mrs. Turpitt had
been sick and in getting up to get her
some medicine. the lamp was either
overturned or placed too near a lace cur
tain, which ignited, but they are I'M
able to explain at present.
1t is most unfortunate fire. as they
are both we'll along in years. Mr.. Tur-
pitt was civil war veteran, and has
had poor health for years. They are
two Of Clarksville's most worthy and
respected pioneers, and have the SYM
patHy Of all.
They carry an insurance of $1,000

Sunday, she arose from her bed, bid
ding her husband a silent farewell,
slipped quietly to the basement and
leaped into the cold waters. The hus-
band missed her later, and after an
exhaustive search she was found, a
note being the clue. This note had
been penned by Mrs. Waltz before TAX
ing her own life, and was as follows:
Don't blame anyone for this. My
mind is not very strong. Take good
care of leila
leila is the 10year-old daughter,
who has been in ill health for several
years. and the inability of physicians
to do anything for her caused the sui
eide. The body was later recovered
from the cistern, and taken to the
Mann undertaking parlors. where it is
be held. but the conclusion is that the
verdict will be suicide, as the facts in
the case are SO plain.

The mysterious disappearance of
Frank Blachly, and the finding of his
coat, vest and hat near the race at the
red house just above the Milwaukee
railroad bridge on the Des Moines riv-

coat and hat at least, but whether he
actually made a plunge beneath the
ice in the water Of the race Is not
known. His coat is the one regularly
worn by him and together with his abb

clew to believe that he might have TAX
