PLUMBLY
April 25th was burned to death in Ludlow, Mr. Alexander Plumbly, of Hanover, N.H., aged 62. Mr. Plumbly was burning
a piece of new land with a number of others. The fire passed the intended bounds, but by exertion it was quelled.
When the company collected Mr. P. was missing, but his remains were soon discovered at a small distance burnt
in a shocking manner, his clothes were nearly all consumed, he lay on his back and it appeared he had greatly exerted
himself in contending with the fire and fainted and fell backward from a place where he was digging the earth with
a hoe and in this position the fire in all probability passed over him.
