CAUGHT IN BARN
IS BURNED TO DEATH
Edward Hines, %, of Lowell Is I'm
able to Escape from Burning
Building.

LowelA Oct. 15.-Edward Hines, IS
was burned to death last night when
fire destroyed a barn owned by his
father Eydney Hines. How the barn
caught fire and why the young man.
who was putting up horse at the
time, was unable to escape from the
building, is unknown. 1t is thought
however. that while embarrassing a
horse, Hines tipped over the lantern
and was overcome by smoke before
he could get out the door which he
had fastened on the inside.
Another theory is that he was suffo-
Gated while attempting to free the
livestock. The young mans father
had been pedding meat during the day
and arrived home about o'clock. He
gave the horse into the care of his
son and went in the house for supper.
When he had finished eating, he
found the barn a mass of flames.
There was no trace Of his son and
no chance to save him or the cattle.
Eighteen head of cattle were burn
ed, one horse, several tons of hay and
much farm material The ruins were
still too hot today to search for the
mans body The barn is about two
miles east Of the village.
