Three Children Loose Their Lives in a Fire in Scio, Ohio George and Florence, twins, aged 2 years and 11 months, and May, aged 5 months, children of Mr. and Mrs. A. C. RANSOM, were brought here from Scio, O., on Sunday and buried in Arlington cemetery. This was particularly a sad funeral as the children had met their death by fire on Friday, there home destroyed at the same time. But one child remains to comfort the bereaved parents, he being at school at the time the catastrophe occurred. The cause of the fire has not been ascertained for a certainty, but the facts are as follows: Mrs. RANSOM was employed in making a dress for the little girl, and had it almost completed when she discovered that it required two more buttons than she had at hand to complete the gown. Hurrying across the street to a neighbors, Mrs. KIGHTLINGER, she secured the buttons and was detained a moment to look at some fancy work. Casting a glance through the window, Mrs. RANSOM saw flames issuing from her home. Rushing to the scene she found several men endeavoring to enter the burning building, but the flames had made such headway it was impossible to enter. Nothing was saved except the wearing apparel which the family had on at the time. While the house was still in flames the oldest boy returned home from school, and the father arrived in time to witness the destruction of his home without being able to lift a hand to save it. Gas from as nearby well was used in heating the house and it is supposed that an overpressure of gas during the absence of the mother was responsible for the fire. Mrs. RANSOM is a daughter of Alexander KING, of Jumbo, and prior to 1900 with her husband lived in McDonald, where he was employed as a rig builder.

Mr. PATTERSON was born in Country Antram (sic), Ireland, and came to the United States when a young man. Almost 40 years ago he and his young wife removed to Pittsburg, and his first employment was as a laborer. For a number of years he superintended mines along the Panhandle Railroad and then engaged in a mercantile business at Sturgeon, but about 12 years ago retired from business and moved to Greenfield, where he resided up to the time of his death, which was caused by bronchitis. He had many friends in the city and country. He was a member of the Greenfield Presbyterian church. He leaves a widow and five adult sons: Robert, John, James, Daniel and Joseph.
