Notes:

The Grim Harvester has been busily plying his sickle among us this week taking his victims in all stages of their pilgrimage - the infant, just started on life's journey; the young man in the prime of life; and the aged and weary pilgrims tired of the long journey and glad to lay down their burden and enter into rest. One such called home on Tuesday was Mrs. Hahn, mother of Messrs. Henry and Conrad Hahn. Mrs. Hahn was one the of the oldest settlers of the district who had experienced the trials and labour of pioneer life. She was well up in the eighties. To all those who are mourning their lost ones we extend our sympathies.

OLD PIONEER CALLED TO REST

WEAKNESSES OF OLD AGE GRADUALLY USE UP VITAL FORCES

On Sunday evening there passed away at her home on Hampton street, another of the old pioneers of this district in the person of Anna Margaret Hahn, relict of the late Bernhardt Muth. She was born in Obernklee, Hessen Darinstadt, Germany on the 2^nd of February 1842 and was therefore in her 84^th year when she died. In 1853 she came with her parents to what was then the village of Waterloo, where the family lived for a short time, then to Conestogo for a few years and then they moved to a small farm north-east of Elmira now owned by Mr. John S. Geisel. Those were the days of the beginning of things, the days of the simple life, when all farmers kept sheep, spun the wool themselves, had it woven by hand-weavers and made their own clothes out of the cloth so woven. The father of Mrs. Muth, the late John Hahn, had been a shepherd in the old country, and in early summer went around from farm to farm shearing the sheep. At this work of shearing sheep his wife was fully his equal. While the family was living at Conestogo the deceased returned to Waterloo to work, and there, 1861 she was married to Bernhard Muth. In 1862 they moved to a small farm near her parents' home. To Mr. and Mrs. Muth were born two children, one son Henry living in Elmira, and one daughter Elizabeth who was married to Mr. Meter Mattusch but, with her infant baby died about 39 years ago. Bernhard Muth died 40 years ago and about a year later Mrs. Muth came to Elmira to wait on her sick daughter and has remained here ever since, keeping house for her son-in-law. Besides her son, only one near relative survives her, namely her brother, Mr. Conrad Hahn. A number of nephews and nieces and more distant relatives also survive.

Mrs. Muth was a member of St. Paul's church, her membership extending back 62 years, longer than that of any other of the present members. The funeral service was consequently held at St. Paul's church yesterday afternoon, Rev. A. Gallmeier officiating. Interment was made in Elmira Union Cemetery. The following acted as pallbearers: George Klinck, Casper Heimbecher, C. W. Schierholtz, George Weismiller, John S. Geisel and Jacob Aberle.

Notes:

Conrad Hahn

Death called Conrad Hahn in his 89^th year at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Chas. Kuntze, R .R. 2, Tavistock, on Wednesday morning. Born in Hesson Darmstadt, Germany, in the city of Obernglane in 1849, the late Mr. Hahn emigrated at the age of four years to Waterloo County with his parents, the late John and Elizabeth Hahn.

In 1878 he married Lizetta Umbach, who predeceased him 15 years ago. They had six children, two, Edward and Addison, having died. Surviving are Mrs. J.W. Borkwood, Kitchener, Mrs. O. Hambly, Elmira, Mrs. Chas. Kuntze, R.R. 2, Tavistock, and one son, Solomon, in Brooklyn, N. Y. Six grandchildren, Carl, Earl and Ross Hahn of Kitchener, Don. Borkwood of Toronto, Ralph Hambly of Elmira, and Eugene Kuntze, and one great grandchild, Mary Jane Hahn, Kitchener, also survive.

The late Mr. Hahn spent most of his life in and around Elmira. He farmed for a good many years on the farm now owned by J. S. Geisel. He owned a butcher business when residing in Elmira and in later years had the agency for an implement company. The past fourteen years were spent with his daughter, Mrs. Chas. Kuntze, where he succumbed.

Mr. Hahn was a staunch Liberal. He was a member of the Baptist church, but in the absence of his faith in Elmira he was an adherent of the Evangelical Church. Widely known as a man of good spirits, despite many adversities, Mr. Hahn will be greatly missed by his family and in the communities where he resided.

The funeral will be held on Friday from the home of his son-in-law, Chas. N. Kuntze, R .R. 2, Tavistock, at 1 o'clock and thence to the Elmira Evangelical Church for services at 2: 30 p.m. Interment will be made in the Elmira cemetery. Rev. J. B. Dengis of New Hamburg and Rev. C .H. Cornwell of Elmira will officiate.

SWEPT BY FIRE
The Village of Elmira Narrowly Escapes.
Being Wiped Out.

THE LIGHTNING TERRIBLE WORK TWO FINE HOTELS, STABLES AND HOUSE BURNED TO THE GROUND-OTHER BUILDINGS BADLY SCORCHED-RAIN SAVES THE TOWN

Special to the Chronicle

Elmira, August 24.-One of the largest and most disastrous fires in the history of Woolwich township, visited this village on Tuesday night and all that is now left of the block consisting of Zilliax's Hotel and large stables, Christman's hotel and stables and the building occupied by Conrad Hahn is one mass of smouldering ruins. A CHRONICLE representative visited the scene of the fire to-day and found the village all agog with excitement as a result of the big blaze. The village had a most miraculous escape from being almost entirely swept away by fire and had it not been for the heroic efforts of its citizens from the first sound of the alarm there might have been a vastly different story for me now to relate. The buildings destroyed were situated right in the very heart of the village. Zilliax's hotel being on the four cross roads coming in from Floradale, Hawkesville, Guelph and Waterloo. The building on the side of the street opposite to the scene of the fire between Dr. Hay's office and Mr. Robert Jackson's residence, including Mr. John Miller's residence to the rear of Zilliax's hotel were saved with the greatest difficulty.

The Alarm.

About twelve o'clock the citizens of the village were startled out of their slumbers by a terrific report and crash of lightning which they knew to be dangerously near at hand. The clanging of fire bells, and the shrill shrieking of whistles soon brought them to their senses and before many minutes the streets were one seething mass of humanity all wending their way to the scene of the fire. The terrific crash which they had heard was the lightning striking the stables of Mr. Jac. Christman's hotel. The electric ball pierced the rear roof of the building and ignited the loose straw stored in that section. Mr. Christman was on the scene a few moments after and before the fire had time to gain much headway, he made a fruitless effort to quench the flames with the application of a few pails of water. But this only seemed to be adding fuel to the flames and a few minutes after the whole stable was enveloped in a fiery mantle. The old hand fire engine was on the scene shortly after the alarm was given and although it was constantly manned by willing hands it was by no means fit to cope with the flame. There was A STRONG WIND from the west fanning the flames at the beginning of the fire which very soon spread to the adjoining stables of Henry Zilliax and from thence to the hotel. Just before the roof of the latter stables fell in there was a beautiful pyrotechnic display, the tongues of fire seeming to leap high up into the air about a hundred feet, and after receding leaving the sky spangled with myriads of dissolving stars The night was pitch dark and a heavy rain was falling. It was a kind Providence that suffered the rain to fall continuously during the fire, giving the villagers the strongest possible fire protection and was probably the one thing that saved the village from almost total extinction. While the flames were rapidly spreading to Zilliax's and Christman's hotel, the wind suddenly shifted to the north and the business blocks on the opposite side of the street were immediately put in imminent danger. Shortly after the cornices along these buildings began to smoke. A large water pail brigade was however soon scattered along the roofs. It was composed of property owners and citizens who all worked like trojans, the latter just as though it was their own interests that were at stake. The heat was so intense that the glass fronts in all the buildings on that side of the street were cracked and how the workers on the roofs managed to stick to their posts, in the face of such a singeing heat is more than most people can understand. Their work was however not without effect as through their herculean efforts the property on that side of the street was saved. With regard to this the prevailing opinion here is that had these buildings ever got started the greater part of the village would undoubtedly have been wiped out.

At the same time willing hands were doing gallant work on the residences of Robert Jackson and John Miller. Both houses were pretty badly scorched, the cornices and woodwork about the windows being burnt out on Mr. Miller's house.

Heavy Losses.

The losses sustained are very heavy and will run up close to $20,000. Mr. Henry Zilliax has the heaviest loss, which when everything is summed up will amount to nearly $10,000. Besides his hotel and the large stables in connection all the hotel furniture and other contents were burned, including nearly $1000 worth of choice liquors stored away in his cellar. To this may be added about twenty tons of hay, a large quantity of oats and some twenty- five cords of hardwood. He carried insurance to the amount of $3,700,

$1,700 in the Economical of Berlin and $2,000 in the Gore.

Mr. Christman's loss is placed between seven and eight thousand dollars, with $2300 insurance in force at the time of the fire. The loss includes hotel and contents and three valuable horses, together with other stable contents, etc.

Mr. Conrad Hahn loses dwelling valued at about $1200.

Will He Rebuild?

When asked whether or not he would rebuild Mr. Zilliax told your representative that he would not be in a position to make any definite statement with regard thereto until he had more fully ascertained his loss.

Sparks.

Messrs. Charles Janzen, Fred Weidenhammer and Wm. Ziegler rendered valuable assistance on Miller's house.

Mr. Wm. O'Neill lost a valuable horse and rig which he had stabled in Christman's barn. The outfit was valued at $200

Among Mr. Christman's losses were three horses and six pigs. The horses were thoroughbreds which he was getting ready for exhibition at the fall shows and be naturally feels this part of his loss very keenly.

Elmira citizens are handling the village council without gloves at the present time for having such an antiquated and entirely inadequate system of fire protection, Tis said that the council is now considering the advisability of establishing a steam pumping station near the mill or buying a steam engine and other schemes to lock the door after the horse is stolen.

All the private papers of both Mr. Christman and Mr. Zilliax were saved. Between sixty and seventy dollars is still confined in the safe of Mr. Zilliax which at time of writing had not cooled off enough to be opened.

The G. T. R staff had an engine and flat car in readiness to run to the nearest town for assistance had the fire fighters been unable to confine the flames.

The only personal belongings which Mr. Zilliax saved out of the fire was the suit of clothes on his back.

Mr. M. Weichel did good execution with a small hand pump which he brought up out of his cellar. We understand Mr. Henry Dunke presented him with a five dollar bill for assistance rendered on his buildings.

Desolation now stares the villagers in the face.

Mr. Geo. Klinck burnt his hands rather badly in his efforts to save his property. His brother Charles burnt the soles of his feet on the hot tin of the roof.

A fine new Bell piano and an organ were among the destroyed contents of Zilliax's Hotel.

Mr. and Mrs. Wm. O'Neill generously turned their house open to the family of Jacob Christman who were left homeless through the fire.

Mr. Zilliax and family have taken temporary quarters at the residence of his brother in law, John L in.

ELMIRA FIRE.

Another Account from Our Own Correspondent.

Elmira, Aug. 24th-The most disastrous conflagration that has visited Elmira, took place last night shortly after midnight. The fire was first discovered in J. Christman's hotel stable and only a few minutes elapsed before the whole building was in flames. Adjoining the stables was the Union Hotel and C. Hahn's residence, and both being frame structures they quickly succumbed to the devouring element. East of the Union Hotel was Zilliax's stable, which caught fire and spread to the hotel, in spite of all efforts to save it. The fire was now at its height and all efforts were put forth to save the buildings on the opposite side of the street, which from the intense heat started to burn at the cornices in many places. By almost superhuman efforts the flames were extinguished and that side of the street saved. John Miller's residence, north of Zilliax's hotel, was in great danger and almost fell a victim to the devouring element. It can scarcely be seen how it was saved, but it escaped with considerable damage.

It was at one time thought that the whole town would go up in flames, but the wind and the rain were in its favor and the citizens felt relieved when danger was past. Sparks flew in all directions.

The losses are partly covered by insurance, and very little was saved. All, or nearly all, hotel furniture was burnt. J. Christman lost all his horses, and also one belonging to Wm. O'Neill.
The origin of the fire is supposed to have been from lightning, although not such a heavy shock was felt. The town this morning presents quite a desolate appearance.
