BELIEVE TRAMP MAY HAVE Persisted
IN FIRE DESTROYING BLACKWELL HOME

The possibility that tramp may
have been burned to death in the
fire that destroyed the farm buildings
of Walter Blackwell IN the Augusta
state road four mfIes from this city
Sunday night was disclosed yesterday
morning soon after day break when
several men searching about the
ruins for evidence discovered the
prints of mans shoes leading
| through the corn field directly back
of the barn but could find no traces
of any tracks returning. This theory
Is strengthened by the fact that the
| railroad tracks of the Maine Central
arc but a short distance away from
the farm.
All day Sunday 200 hens busily
scratched the dirt on this piece of
plowed ground and these tracks were
very plainly discernible while there
were no other signs of any man hav-
ing walked there. AS it is known
that no members of the Blackwell
household came up through there
Sunday at any time it is thought
probable by people living in that vi
entity that tramp seeking a place
to sleep for the night crawled either
into the haymow or under the barn
and lighting his pipe or cigarette
started the fire that destroyed the
farm buildings valued at $4,000 and
also burned to death, 10 head of cat
tie valued by Mr.. Blackwell at $500,
three horses and a hog.
Whether or not this man IL there
was such person persisted in the
flames may never be known unless in
few days after the still shoulder
ing embers have cooled down evl-
dences of human bones are found in
the ashes.
The tramp theory seems very
plausible to those who were concern
ed with the fire for there seemed to
be no other way that the blaze could
have originated unless from spontan-
eous, combustion due to the heating
of wet hay.
This theory is supported very sat
isfactorily by the finding of these
tracks and even though the tracks
had led away again it would still have
been very possible that the tramp es-
capped as soon as he saw that the
fire was beyond his control.
The fire has caused a great deal of
interest in Waterville and surround
ing territory. All day long passing
autoists have halted to examine the
ruins and even last evening a score
or more of cars were lined up near
the scene and groups of people were
strolling about in the yard.
Practically every bit of woodwork
on all of the buildings is in ashes.
Below the surface of the yard the
ruins of the barn and the bodies of
the beasts are still snApuldering ana
bursting occasionally into flame. The
wind has toppled over both chimneys
of the house. Mr.. Blackwell had filed
his shed with Is or 20 cords of fitted
dry hard wood and the only thing
left is a small pile of gray ashes. The
large elm trees in the yard are scor-
ched and withered and Sunday night

The fire was only a run of four
miles for the Winslow fire depart

when they arrived there was abso-
lutely nothing they were able to do
except watch the buildings burn or
perhaps aid in placing the household

probably saved the house but the
barn was mass of flames before II
