Young Man Loses His Life In Burn
ing Store.

Kimball's mill aud storehouse,
eight miles from Oxford, on Tar
river. burned last Thursday night.
Mr.. L. T. Kelly, the miller, lost his
life in the burning storehouse. lie
was asleep in his room on the second
story Of the store and the smoke
awakened him. He gave the alarm
of fire, which aroused all the inmates
of the house. The father, Mr.. Will
liam D. Kimball, and three daugh-
tiers occupied apartments on the sec
ond floor and were obliged to leap
from the windows for their lives, as
the fire originated in the rear of the
store, at the foot of the one and only
stairway in the building, which was
impossible in the dense smoke and
flames.
The miller, a young married man,
leaves a wife and one child in Denver,
Lincoln county, from which place
he came a few days ago to take
position in the fine mill, intending to
bring on his family at an early day.
After heroically exerting every effort
to save the inmates OF the house, he
failed, for some unknown reason, to
leap from a window at which he was
standing, and persisted in the flames.
Thursday night at 10 o'clock a
phone message to Oxford called ply
sicians and help to the scene. The
call was responded to promptly, au-
tomobiles and vehicles of every avail
able means being used, and DR.. b.
K. Hays and DR.. S. H. Canady Of
Oxford, also Dir. Norris and DR..
Hardy, of Stem, were quickly using
every needed remedy for the injured.
They found the three daughters OF
Mr.. Kimball, Misses Minnie, Alice
and Maude, who leaped from the
burning building to the pavement
around the store, all suffering from
injuries very painful. Miss Minnie,
the eldest, fractured her knee very
badly and Miss Alice injured both
ankles. The aged father was burned
on the head while working for the
safety of his daughters.
The injured were carried by friends
to the home of a neighbor, a quar-
ter of a mile from the scene OF con-
fiagration. Friday morning the
charred remains of the miller were
taken from the ruins.
The mill was q fve-story building.
1t caught from the flames of the
storehouse opposite. There was no
insurance on the store, in which a
$500 stock Of goods was carried.
Twenty thousand dollars of insur-
ance was held on the mill, in which
was a large amount of grain. The
loss is estimated at $4,000.
