         July 20th, MRS. SAMUEL SPINNEY of Glenwood Plantation,
       having occasion to call on a neighbor some distance away,
       left her two children, aged one and three years, asleep
       in the house. MR. BENJAMIN EASTMAN, who was at work in
       the vicinity, hearing screams, ran to the house, which
       he found in flames. He succeeded in forcing the door open,
       but was compelled by the fire and smoke to retreat and
       leave the little unfortunates to their sad fate.
