A Mother and Daughter Burned to Death.
Especial to The Bangor Daily News.)
STOCKTON, Nov. %. When James Eaton of
Standpoint, steamboat agent, returned to
his home at five o'clock on Saturday afternoon
after an absence of half an hour, he found the
place on fire and the charred bodies of his wife,
Nellie, aged 55. and his daughter, Lillian, aged
80. The wife's body lay in the YARD, about
thirty feet from the house. while that of his
daughter was on the floor, near a couch, in one
of the lower rooms. The couch was blazing
as was some of the woodwork, but it was an
easy matter to extinguish the flames. Both
bodies were burned almost beyond recognition.
The remains of lamp in the yard, a few feet
from the doorstep, gave mute evidence of how
the tragedy had occurred-at least of its i'm
mediate cause, DR.. o. S. Vickery of Belfast
medical examiner, and w. A. Cowan of Winter
port, county attorney who were called, decided
that no investigation was necessary; and to
publish the theories regarding the case would
serve no good purpose.
