MOGK IS THE GREAT STORM.

The recent sirotn upon the plain* w.
pe/hapa, the moat xerrere ever known.
« in the morning of the atom two fr igbt
Mr. fame* McDermott and coapan
a, starred fmw Comp Robin s on for
.Sidney with their teem s. They soon were
lost and-became sejiarmted, and on last
rfaturdrT Mr. Melferotott was found un*
■ tier the fulluwing circumstances; He :
bad wandered for twelve days, accota
pan icd by two d«ig*, without food of any
(kind, exposed to the storm day and
night, steeping .Hhoat'^riwi at
injf on the cold ground, and had wasted
kway tow mere skei^Los, To add to hi»
Ff, ring anc dav he saw near him «ome
r :ow boys, but was to week to call loud
enough to attract their attention and,
like a fchipwrvck «»o B wbo m a «!I
approach, but before it cornea within
bsiling di«t«ice bean »w»j again and
duappears, he saw them pass from him.
On last Saturday these same cow boys
beard » faint barking wjelpiog like that
of dogs and, followrbg the sound,
came to them. Thedtrgs were also
dated to akeietons, and scarcely had
atengrb to stand, being in the last stages
some mea
seires, they pici*» it up in their mouths,
got on tbeir trembling limbs, and tried
to carry it to their master. And thus he
was found. The fact that the dogs
refused to eat the meat given them al
though they were dying of
but attempted to carry it to their
ing master, is'teatified to by men of un
impeachable yiracity.
Mr. Dcrmott waa carried. to Sidney,
where he ia under the care of the Poet
Surgeon, with fair prospects of recover
.
ing, although badly frozen, while the
dogs have been cared for at a camp m ar
where they were found, McDermott, iu
his week state talks constantly of his
dogs, and begs for them to be brought to
lris bedside, which will be gratified soon,
Many things connected with the groat
storm will doubtless long he rememdered,
^and tbesfsjrics told around many a camp
. are; but we jsredict that the woe longest
remembore<l and oftcnCTt te pea ted win
be. the story of the two -dogs, who, when
dying with hunger, and the food in their
mouths, refused to eat, but tried to carry
it to their starving master.

An inmate who had Ford In
opened Fordsdoor and the ffames burst
out and ran along the partitions and up
the stove-pipe hole into the second story.
Ford could not be seen on account of
flames. He had forced his head between
bam of the window aod was
uppe7 ‘
to poll it back. The story
occupied by twenty-five women and
children, the lower story by eighteen
men ; a nmjroity were idiotic, crippled
or very aged. Fi ve on the first floor and
tcu on the second floor periahed. At
the first alarm Eli Arrington the
er, knocked m the door at the root,
the staircase leading from the
atory. Eight or ten women were
up at the foot of the stairs, ana a
rrft re^tidg i^ erdltd dowm
womeH were pulled out. On k unaay
blackened remains of five bodies
taken from the rums, and to-day
two-thirds of the debris was dug
and more remain, were found.
gethcr thev would about fill an
.izod coffin. Lege, arms and akulla
entirely burned off, audio most
but a very small portion of the body can
be found. No blame is attached to
one but the county is severely
for providing such a man-trap for
• occupation of iu paupera. Before
fire there were one hundred and
paupers at the bounty lioiiHh The
oncF impaneled a jury this afternoon
began taking testimony. A verdict
not be reached till to-morrow.
