TWO CHILDREN BURNED

The house belonging to Mr. Gramble, two and a half miles northwest of Tonkawa, burned to the ground about 2’oclock Sunday morning.
When the fire was discovered the building was all in flames and the family had no time to save any of the household effects, and only the older members of the family managed to save themselves.
The horrible part of the fire was the burning of the two small children to a crisp. They were never seen after the fire was discovered. Another child was found clinging to a corner of the house, which was burned so badly that it is not expected to live.
The cause of the fire is so far unknown. Mr. Bramble just recently came to Oklahoma and bought the claim on which he lived. The bereaved parents have the sympathy of the entire community.
