The family of William Sloan, consisting of eight persons, were burned to death at East Liverpool, Pa., near Pittsburg. As soon as the flames were discovered by Mr. Sloan, he awoke all, telling them to follow him, took up his three-year old daughter and started for the stairs. The flames had cut off their retreat by this time, however, and turning to a window he leaped out, at the same time telling his wife and children to do the same. It is supposed that before they had time to follow his advice they were overcome by the stifling flames from the drug store, as no others escaped.
Freeborn County Standard; Albert Lea, Minnesota.
