ToUNG-In sad and loving remembrance Of
our dear mother, SARAH A. YOUNG, who
died two years ago yesterday. April 30, 1909
Just two years yesterday our Saviour
Sent an angel from his throne
And took our dear mother
To Il beautiful heavenly home.
just two years she has lived with jesus,
Her dear head upon His breast;
God knew best and sweetly called her
Home in heaven 10 rest.
Just two years have passed but we miss
her;
Friends may think the wound has healed.
But little they know Of the sorrow
That lies within our hearts concealed,
Farewell, mother; oh farewell;
You have gone to heaven to dwell;
Free from toll. pain and care,
hope we will all meet you there.
BY Her Children.
MOHR-In sad but loving remembrance Of
nv dear daughter, ELIZABETH j. MOHR
who departed this life seven years ago, to-
day, May i, 1901.
The 10Y of our life and light of our love
Has gone from our home to the mansions
above.
Her voice. once 50 gentle, so tender and
The message Of goodness has ceased to re-
peat. r.

THREE KILLED AND
Loss Of MILLIONS
BY FIRE IN BANGOR
City Hall Only One of Prin-
cipal Building Left
Standing.
Continued from First Page.)

ShingledJroofs of structures far removed
from the immediate fire zone.
1t was this that caused the fire to get
away from the local department, and
soon appeals for help were being made
to outside cities.
The chief operator of the telephone
exchange climbed a pole, cut into d
trunk line and sent the call for out
side help.
There was a prompt response. and
soon men and apparatus from Augusta,
Portland. Lewiston, OldtoWn, and
Brewer were on the way.
AS the fire burned on the city light
ing plant went out of commission, and
throughout the night the fire was fought
d: iE darkness, which increased the enor-
mousness of the task.
When ii became certain that water
- was of little avail in combating the
SaSt-spreading fire, Mayor Mullen or
dered the tiremen to use dynamite. Sew
eral blocks in the direct pathway were
blown up, and this gave the firemen the
opportunity 20 make a desperate stand,
which finally saved a small portion of
the city.
A falling wall of the Morse Oliver
building crushed a fireman. John Wilt
shire, of Hook and Ladder Company
No ]. was seen to pitch back into the
seething flames from the third story
ol tie public library. 1t is believed
that a middle ged man was caught
H..
Escape to Brewer was cut off by the
burning of bridges in the early stages
of the fire.
About midnight the wind shifted and
a light rain began to fall. But while
the rain and the shifting of the wind
TO the east saved the rest of the CITY,
II brought much misery to the home
less compelled to walk the streets with
Gut shelter. Burning of the public build
9AEs and churches had left these un-
tortunates without shelter, and il was
not until today that they could be pro-
vided for.
BY order Of the mayor, the troops on
guard and the city police today secured
provisions for all Of the homeless. 1t
is certain that all will be provided with
both food and shelter by tonight
The actual burned area spreads out
from one-eighth to one-ouarter of a
mile, and extends for two miles north
A tour of the city shows that there
is hardly a grocery, bakery, or restaur-
ant left standing. The food problem is
a serious one.
The leaping flames formed a beacon
light visible within a radius of more
than twenty-five miles of Bangor Resi-
dents in the surrounding towns rushed
to the city by the hundreds. 1t was
when the throng OF curious spectators
began to arrive that Mayor Mullin
deemed ii best to call out the military to
aid the police in maintaining order and
guarding the thousa nds of dollars worth
Of personal and household effects that
were taken from burned or threatened
buildings.
I Strict patrol OF the entire city was es-
I stablished by the milit!amen. but so far
e reported no serious disorder was at
npted either during the fire or since
ie blaze was conqueed.
