Burned to Death Thursday night of last week George Settlemeyer of Loretto was burned to death in a barn in which he had gone asleep. The barn caught fire from a lantern which was accidentally overturned. It is supposed that Settlemeyer was under the influence of liquor at the time the fire stated. The head was burned from the body. Child Poisoned Zuella Young, the two-and-one-half year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Adam Young of the West Ward, died at 5 o’clock Sunday morning from the effects of drinking about two ounces of yellowish fluid used for coloring butter. The child climbed a ladder to the top of the kitchen cupboard and got hold of a good-sized bottle of the stuff. When found Zuella said she had tasted the stuff but didn’t like it. Later the child became violently ill and in spite of all efforts she passed away before daylight. Funeral services were conducted at 1:30 o’clock Tuesday afternoon by the Rev. J. Twyson Jones, pastor of the First Congregational church. Interment was made in Lloyd’s cemetery. Death Strikes Twice, Apollo, Pa., Nov. 16: A remarkable series of deaths has occurred in the family of Mrs. Lazarus Owens of Apollo in the last few hours. Mrs. Owens, her daughter, Mrs. Martha Shaner and her son, James Owens, are dead and another son, Todd Owens, prostrated by the shock and made dangerously ill. Two days ago, James Owens, aged 52, who lived at the home of his mother died suddenly. James was one of a large family and his brothers and sisters came to attend the funeral. Mrs. Owens and her daughter, Mrs. Shaner, were extremely affected at the death and seemed overcome by the shock. The funeral of James was held in the afternoon and after the return from the cemetery Mrs. Shaner fainted. Friends rushed to her assistance and she was laid upon a couch and physicians summoned. Before they arrived she died. Mrs. Shaner’s death, coupled with that of her son, completely unnerved Mrs. Owens and she fell to the floor unconscious. Before the doctor who had been summoned for Mrs. Shaner could arrive, Mrs. Owens had also expired. Todd Owens was pronounced out of danger and he will probably recover. The coroner was notified of the deaths. _________________________________________________________________ Want to read Hotmail messages in Outlook?
