LEWIS
Fires
On Monday evening
last, says the Goshen (N.Y.) Patriot, Mr. Wm. Lewis and
his wife, of the town of Monroe, left their children, while they went to
visit one of their neighbors, about a mile and a half distant.
About 9 o’clock the house was discovered to be on fire and before any
one could reach the place, the house, together will all its contents,
were literally burned to ashes, the four children, in whose care the
house had been left, with instructions to leave a good fire when they
went to bed, were burned to death. Their bodies were found the
same night and enclosed in a box, together with the bones found the next
morning, and buried in one grave. They were three boys and one
girl, the eldest a boy between 15 and 16 years of age, the youngest
about 7 years. Three of them were found lying on their beds and as
though they had never awoke; the other from the position in which he was
found, had got off the bed. [The Adams Sentinel (Gettysburg,
