Zeta, only daughter of Esquire and
Mrs. S. J. Sotley, of Tiffnesta, died at
the home of hor parents, Thursday
morning, Juno 25, 18W1, aged 10 yearB.
The deceased had boon in ill health for
a numbor of months, and while hor en
feebled condition loft but small hope for
her recovery, death came with a sudden
ness littlo expocted, making the shock
doubly painful to tho fond parents. Miss
Zeta was a young lady of gentle, sweot
disposition, with a modesty aud refine
ment of manner that made her a favor-
ito with her associates. A mombor of
tho M. E. Church and of tho Epworth
League, much of her short pilgriniago

Augustus Hcltliiio'cr Drops Dead.
Coroner Dr. Morrow 'Was summoned
to Golluza Monday to viow tho body of
Augustus (somotimos nicknamed" Jake")
Ileidingor, who had died suddenly, bo
tween six and seven o'clock on that
morning. He had stopped a few mo
meiits at the storo on his way to his
work, apparently in his usual robust
health, and as the whistle of the locomo
tive blew ho s'arted ou to his work with
dinner pail in hand, when ho dropped to
the floor and expired instantly. Dr,
Morrow found no evidence that death
had resulted from other than natural
causes, und deemed it unnecessary to
hold an Inquest. Heart failure was tin
doubtedly the cause of tho sudden death
as it is said deceased had experienced
somo troublo from that source heretofore,
Ha was a man of strong and rugged con
stitution, aud about the last that ono
would expect to go in that way. His age
was about 37 years, and he leaves a wifo
und three children. Ho had boeu iu the
employ of tho lumbering firm of Col
litis cfc Watson for somo time, having had
clinrgo of tho construction of a largo part
of tho road bed of the now railroad on

Lnslien SlerrlU Shmv, of KelleltvIHe,
Iliirneil to Deal h at Plitnicr.
Lushen M. Show, third son of Elliott
Shaw, of Kellettville, this county, was so
terribly burned at Plitnicr, on Tuesday
of last week, that ho died of his Injuries
at tho Oil City hospital Thursday morn
ing following. Tho Derrick of Friday
gives the following particulars of the
frightful accident :
"Shaw was a tool drosser by occupa
tion, and had been employed by tho Rus
sell brothers, of Plumer, working on tho
wells and teaming. On Tuesday after
noon thoy sent him to pump their wells
on tho Ricketts farm. Ho started and
was accompanied by one of tho brothers.
Thoy stopped to pick berries in tho woods,
and Shaw filled his bucket first. Ho
told his companion that he would go on
to the wells. About ten minutes later
young Russell saw somo smoke In the
direction of the boiler house and started
through tho woods on a run. When he
arrived ho found his undo, John Russoll,
and Newton Birchfield also on the wav
to tho lease. Thoy found the boilor
houso on lire, and Shaw with evory inch
of clothing cither torn off or burned off.
Tho flesh had peeled off in flakes from
his legs, arms and body, and he was In a
horrible condition. The fire beneath the
boilers had not burned right and Shaw
had filled a can with fresh oil and threw
it into the furnace. His greasy clothing
had caught fire and burned evory stitch
from him, and he was wandering sido
wise, aimlessly, in front of tho boiler
moaning and evidently beside himself
with tho pain. Russoll stripped his own
clothing from his body, oven to his shirt,
wrapped tho sufferer up and took him to
liis house nt Plumer, and then sent to
Rousevillo for Dr. Tyler, who dressed
tho burns, and had Shaw taken to the
hospital. The patient was too far gone
for medical aid to accomplish more than
to relieve his Intense agonies, and he died
at an early hour yesterday morning, and
his body was sent home lor burial."
A menu ot the family sends us
the following additional particulars:
Tho funeral was hold from his
father's residence ou Friday at 2 p. m
The services wore conducted by Rov
Win. Richards, the text for his discourse
being selected from Matt. 24:44, "Thore-
foro be ye also ready : for in such an
hour as ye think not tho Son of Man
cometh." The remains were laid to rest
in tho Whig Hill cemolory to await the
rosurroction mourn.
The subject of this sketch was aged 23
years, 0 months and 3 days. For the
past year ho had mado his homo with Iu-
lis Russell, and to Mr. R. and his daugb..
tors, Alice, Mary and Llbbio, the rein
tivos of tho deceased wish to return es
pecial thanks for thoir untiring efforts to
alleviate in every possible way the suf
ferings of the poor boy. He leaves an
aged father nnd mother, three brothors
nnd five sisters to mourn his tragic death
The relatives from a distance who nt
tended tho funeral were, Mr. nnd Mrs.
Goorge Shaw nnd Josephine Shaw of
Venus, Mrs. Minnio Evnns and son of
Fryburg, and Miss Annie Nelson of
Bouseville. A numbor of friends nnd
