LOSES LIFE IN FIRE.
C. w Atkinson Burned to Death
In Shanty Near Olanta.

Florence, December 7:-Charles
w Atkinson, one of the most popu'
lar men in the Olanta section Of the
county, was burned to death in his
camp shanty Saturday night. Nh
Atkinson was foreman of the skid
der gang and lived with the men in
a row of shanties in the woods near
the Olanta mill of D Alderman & Co.
The men retired as usual Saturday
night, each shanty having a stove in
it and pile of kindling wood ready
for fire in the morning. 1t is sup.
posed that ii fire dropped from the
stove in Mr. Atkinson's shanty on to
the kindling and it blazed up and
caught the bed on which he slept.
He was alone in the shanty and the
alarm of fire was given by the men
in the next shanty to his, who were
awakened by the roar and glare OF
the flames. When they arrived the
whole interior of Atkinson's place
was in flames. From one window
his charred body could be seen on
the springs of his consumed bed. He
had evidently not been awakened
by the fire at all and was suffocated
by the smoke before the flames
reached him.
Two shanties were burned by the
fire before the camp succeeded in
extinguishing it.
Atkinson was about 35 years OF
age, a member of the Woodmen and
other societies in the neighborhood,
and was highly esteemed. He had
been in the employ of Mr. Alderman
for number of years.
