A circumstance singular as well as fatal in
its conseq tcnces, says the indianapolis Ca
zette, transpired in Park county, Indiana. ON
the night OF the 18th ult. A house in the &C.
cupancy of Mr.. Staggs, on Rackoon creek,
was destroyed by fire, and himself, his wife
aud child, were consumed by that dreadful
element. The house being situated at some
distance from any other habitation, this un-
fortunate family met their fate unknown to
their neighbors. On the next morping the
isins were discovered, and from the situa-
tion Of the bones, being near the door of the
building, it is supposed that the husband, fol-
owed by his wife and child, were endea-
vouring to make their escape, when the
roof fell in, and their destruction was newt
able. We derived the above information
from gentleman we'll acquainted with the
facts.
