Farm House Destroyed by Fire.
The large log house on the farm of
‘Squire Cyrus Brungart, near Woll's
Store, was totally destroyed by fire early
Tuesday morning. On the day previous
the Bigler Shaeffer family, tenants on
the place, had made a fire in the wash
house stove in preparation for the week's
washing and when the sad news of the
death of Mrs. Shaeffer arrived, the wash-
and a peighbor woman
came in to ;put out the fire and place
things in order, It is believed that the
fire continued to smoulder throughout
the day, finally breaking into a flame in
the wash house and communicating with
the main dwelling. The only ones at
home were Luther Shaeffer, a brother of
Bigler Shaeffer, and a son and a daugh-
ter of the latter. They were awakened
