he says, was filled with smoke. But
he found Mrs. Trayser in the well
house about forty feet from the
door in which she was hurled in an
unconscious condition. She does not

Mrs. Trayser's daughter Louise
who was ir the room adjoining wa'
thrown against the wall. On re-
covering she too rushed to her
mothers room to find Mr.. Addingtop
bringing her into her room.
Mrs. Trayser's condition was
thought to be serious as, it is re-
ported, she was apparently partially
paralized. But she has about regain
ed full use of her limbs and at
this writing is reported to be able
to sit up. Just how she, and her
daughter too, escaped without more
serious results, is remarkable.
