Nelllo K. Sawyer, daughter of Henry
and Myra llaiiiis Itobinson, and wife of
l.eorgo V. Sawyer, was born at Concord,
Ma-s July II, lM'lam! died ill Tionesta,
Pa., pril I'M. Like a beautiful lest
to tho ni 1 1 ii in that is snatched suddenly
Iroin the twig and tenderly can ltd forth
to join an innumerable i uinpiiny Unit has
preeeilcd it, Mrs. Sawyer lias been taken
ft mil us. There is sighing in tho treo lops,
hut she bwietly itsls hither sho has
gone. Wo limy never be able In realize
slio is no longer with us lor her life was
one of greatest activity, interwoven Willi
curds ol love in tho lives of all who knew
her, and her going from us -o unexpect
edly seems like an unpleasant dream.
For many years Mrs. Sawyer and her
husband hnve been counted among our
most valued citizens, oouiicg hero from
Charlestnwn, Mass , in February, lsoll.
Her kind heart and generous spirit won
her many friends and it is safer to say of
Mrs. Sawyer III mi of m.iiiy, "she died
without a:i enemy." Sho was well and
'avorahly known thiouglmut tho county,
having been matron for six years of the
county jail. For a number of years, she
was a consistent member -jt the Presby
terian church. She was seldom absent
from any (if I lie church sir vices, unless
prevented by sickness, and of lier it can
truly be said, "She loved the habitation
ot (.ioii's house. ''
Little more lliau a fortnight had passed
after the fall of fort Sumpter, a-hen she
was married, on April 211, lMil, to (ieorge
W. Sawyer, a member of tho Filst Mas
sachusetts regiiudut, who had iiiready
volunteered his service to tho wellaro of
his country. This union was a happy
one, and, since Ihe close of Iho war their
iiomelife has imb ed been pleasant. The
testimony borne of her by her husband is
that she never spoke an unkind word in
Ihe home. To them were born three
daughters the youngest of w horn died in
in childhood. Of Ihe remaluiugehililren,
tho elder, Anna, is now the wilo of
county commissioner, John T. Carson,
and tho younger, l.inma, is the wile of
Charles Hunter. Mrs. Sawyer was one
of twelve children all of w hom aro now
dead savo one jister, Mrs. Hatlie Kiggs,
of WorecslOi', Mas. Heing separated
from the nearest relaiives she always
priked any message from them, and it
afforded her great pi 'asnro to entertain,
on Iho Sunday peceding her death, ber
nephew, Harvey L. Wheilwk, an attor
ney of Chicago, and Alexander IS n 1 lock
of Worcester, Mass , w hoso interest in
tlio vast estate ol tho late Jerome Whee
loek, ol Worcester, called them to visit
all those who had been remembered by
this gn ut philanthropist. Put tho strain
and excitement on the weakened body is
belie ed to have been to great, causing it
to give freedom tothespiril it had encased
for more than three scoro yea s. Funer
al services were held at the residence on
Thursday allernoon, and, on account of
Hit absence of her pastor, Rev. J. V. Mc
Anincli, were commcled bv Rev. Mr.
Nicklc. Tho lloral offerings were beauti
ful and abundant, pruning as loving trlb
utes from her man v friends. The pull
bearers were Messrs. J. T. Dale, J, II.

caught about three weeks ago by a fox
hunter In Ihe vicinity of Shellleld Fox
hounds found the mother bear and her
three babies under a hiruo pile of brush.
Ti e mother was lulled by n l iflu ball,
that glanced and also killed one of the
cubs. The old bear was one of the larg
est ever killed in this vieiuitv, weighing
47S pounds. The cubs were secured by
Sheriir Jamieson of Tionesta, who in
turn sold them to Mr. Wa;ir. They are
now as large as woodchucks and are nine
weeks old. A large numbernf people wero
attracted to Mr. Wager's place of busi
ness Friday to see the littlo fellows. They
aro becoming ijuitu tame and seem to bo
consoled lor the loss of their mother.
Several parties are negotiating for (lie
pair and it seems highly probable that1
they will go to Oil City and becomo per- 1

Ry far the most disastrous lire that has
ever visited our county occurred on Wed
nesday of last week, wiping out practi
cally all of the business portion of tho
bustling town of Maricnville, ami marly
halfof its piivate residences.
The lire broke out in Mrs. J. '('.Smith's
residence, two doors lieinw John Hoov
er's llvory barn, on Ihe east sldo of Cher
ry street. What caused tho lire is not
known. Although! prompt action was
taken lo subdue the llau.es every effort
failed, and with lli' wind blowing a 0
mile galo from the southwest and every
thing as dry as tiudor, Hie lire not only
spread with greatest rapidity but the
Haines leaped from building to building,
and great patches of burning embers
were carried for rods and ignited houses
II. at were located several blocks away.
Almost within a twinkling, and before
people could realize It, the block of
buildings in the triangiilarspacoin which
were located Hoover's barn, several store
b i tidings, the opera house and the line
Keyslono hotel was a mass of Haines,
from w hich, fanned by the terrific wind,
tho lire spread w itli fearful rapidity. The
entire Circle of business places extending
from Meuscli A Co.'s hardware store up
to the corner, including the postolliue and
several bushiest places, and on around,
taking Carriuger'a store, Neely Jt Co.'s,
Chas. Wilton's, David Minlz's, Dr. Beck's
building, Hotel Watson, Hums' meat
market and on down to and Including
Iho R. It. depot, was burned out. The
wind being from the aonthwest the lire
was sw ept ill a northeasterly course from
the main portion of the town, and noth
ing was saved in its path. All the build
ings, dwellings ,etc., on Fast Spruce street
running nearly parallel w ith the railroad
track, as well as every building n North
Cherry street, running up towurd Ry-
roniiown, on which was located some of
tho finest homes in Marienville, were
swept away as in a tw inkling. The Pres
byterian church was in this district, and
buildings beyond this strm-Uiro were
tired before it caught.
Tho lire broke out about 111 o'clock in
the forenoon, and in less than four hours.
or about half past 1 o'clock it was all
over with.
People wore powerless to stay iho fury
of such a lire, and would have been had
the town possessed tho best possible
means of lighting lire. While the win i
w as the cause of so i. real distrtiction or
property, it was also tho means of saving
others, because it blew the Haines away
from them. And yet, as if in mockery
or tho elloi Is ol the laborers it would oo
casoually sweep about and driving the
rescuers from their post lick up a build
ing as if it were a mere straw stack. The.
area burned over would cover almost M
acres of ground, of which nothing but
ashes Is left and the sight is a sad one lo
behold. Fortunate indeed thai no casu
alties aueurred, and beyond tie burning
of two or three of the cillzons about the
face and bands no one was seriously In
jured, Among those seriously burned
was Samuel Pickens, editor of tlio Kx
pross, and li. F. Kendall of the A. I).
Ni'ill drug store.
Of tho contents of tho buildings very
little was saved, goods carried out were
soon burned up in the streets. House
hold goods were consumed in almost
eneiy instance, and in nearly all cases
peopl i saved only what they had on their
ba.'ka.
Score? of pooplo are left without a home
and have thus far been lurnishcd with
the creature comforts by good neighbors
who wero more fortunate The moro
able of the poop lo have responded nobly
to the needs of their unfortunate tow ns
people, and many who lost heavily are
still doing much toalleviiileihedistiessol
others. Other towns, Clarion, Kane, and
places along the II. U. A K. Ry. are re
sponding to ths call for help. Tionesta
has raise 1 a purso, and will do more i1
nied-.d. Hon. J. C. Sibley telegraphed
t e n 1 IoT committee to draw on him for
V. Too much cannot be sent for it
will require much to bridge Iho uuiortu
naieontis over till they can find shelter.
and again mako a Mart, and people who
are able should not wait In be called
upon. In sogreat a calamity all tlio dis
tress cannot be told, and much of ti e
suffering will never bo known outside
tho family circle.
Inl'oi mation as lo tho individual losses
is dillicult to piocuro, but m Iho aggi s.
gate w ill loot up close to JliHl.tkHi The
Insurance carried will probably not
amount to moro than one-third that
amount, or about ?lo0,oo0. Following is
