A MODERN ABRAHAM
A ————=
He Oilers His Daughter as a
Burnt Offering.
Crazed by Religion He Tries to Crus

Prevented=Eiis Daughter
Likely to Die,
Erx, Pa., Bept. 8.—The eastern part of
this county is intensely excited over the ac-
tions of a man crazed by religion. Some
months ago Sylvester Knott, a well-to-do
farmer living in a comparatively isolated
spot on the shore of Lake Erie, attended
a meeting of the Salvation Army at Frank-
lin. He became very much excited, and
finally insane. For two weeks past he has
wandered up and down the shore, declaiming
on religious themes, picuring the horrors of
the judgment day, and calling upon sinners
to worship God or be eternally lost,
He planted a large cross in the woods on
which to nail his eight-year old son, believing
the boy would be tormented in hell fire for-
ever unless he died the death of the Saviour,
With almost superhuman strength Knott
held the lad firmly while driving a large nail
through the little fellow’s hand, perfectly re-
gardless of his piteous cries for mercy. The
dreadful work was interrupted by some wood
cutters who happened to be passing. Leaving
his son hanging, the maniac fled, first striking
down oue of the rescuers with a hammer,
He leaped inoo the lake, and as the search for
him proved fruitless it was thought that he
bad been drowned. This was not the case,
however, Before might the crazy man re
turned, smashed in the door of his house and
knocked Mrs. Knott insenssble at a single
blow,
Entering a chamber in which his only
daughter—Minnie, a girl of seventeen—Ilay
asleep, he bound her hand and foot and car-
ried her to a lonely place in the forrest, where
hundreds of cords of wood were piled. An
altar were quickly built, and upon it the
madman secured his child, * Even as Abra-
ham did with Isaac, will 1 offer you as a
burnt offering unto God,” chanted the mad-
man, setting the funeral pyre on fire. The
flames soon reached the limbs of the girl,
whose shrieks of agony and prayers for a
more merctful death were music to mad
man’s ears. Dancing around the heap on
which lay the girl, he implored the Almighty
to accept the sacrifice as attonement for the
sinful deeds committed by him in past years.
He added fresh fuel to the altar, But help
arrived in time to prevent the consummation
of the fearful design. Two young men cross
ing the woods on their way home from a
party saw a bright light, and heard the young
woman's screams. One felled the father
while his companion scattered the blazing
wood and liftedlthe girl from her flery bed,
The cords that bound her limbs were trans
ferred to those of the unconscious maniac,
Miss Knott's legs are badly burned, and
there are large blisters on her shoulders, arms
and sides. So awful was her experience that
the doors of an asylum may open to admit
the daughter as well as the father. She raves
night and day, and it is feared her reason is
permanently dethroned.
Ten Thousand People Drowned,

indescribable confusion followed the alarm.
The fire spread rapidly, being fed by in

control of those who attempted to quell it
with the insufficient means at band
Dispatches were sent to this city asking
for aid, and fire engines were sent out, but
before they could reach the monastery the
flames had done their work of destruction
The interior of the building was: almost
totally destroyed, the fire as it swept from
soom to room, carrying everything before it
The rooms in which the fair was being held
contained a large quantity of articles of all
sorts, some of them bulky, which bad been
contributed by friends of the institution.
There were many donations from Baltimore,
various merchants having contributed sets of
furniture, sewing machines, and almost all
kinds of articles used in housekeeping. The
building is a massive structure, its dimensions
being 60x250 feet. It cost $150,000, The loss
by the fire will, it is estimated, amount to over
$100,000,
