bers. Huge beams plunged through
the flooring striking the terrified hu-
man beings within and pinning them
to the ground. Mrs. Hickman and an
infant asleep in an upper room, were
the only members of the family who
escaped injury.
As soon -as Mrs. Hickman could re-
cover from the shock. she notified

distant, and an army Of helpers, with
DR.. Frank Gum and his son Andrew,

They were Mortified by the devasta-
ton that met their eyes when they
began 10 hunt for the members of the
family.

timbers and bricks, and there was
blood everywhere they searched, max
ing the place look like a slaughter
house. They found William Hickman
son of Washington Hickman, pinned
beneath the posts Of the house, with
head and body frightfully mutilated
and unconscious. There was still life
in the body. but he died within q
short time after being extricated.
