--------Mother and her four children Cremated
----Niece Also burned to death. Father and one little son barely escaping.
With Jim Sneed and little son barely escaping with their lives, his wife and four of his children and a neice (reported to be the daughter of Everett Sneed) lost their lives in a fire which destroyed their home at Modoc six and a half miles up the creek from Matoaka, at an early hour Sunday morning, according to word received here from Matoaka, W.Va. Advices stated that rescuers were unable to reach the victims until the home had burned completely down and nothing was left of the bodies but the charred bones.
Sneed was said to have built up a fire shortly before daylight and went back to bed, dropping off to sleep. When he awoke the house had so nearly burned down that he had time only to snatch up one of the little children, a boy, and flee with him.
It was thought that the building caught from a defective flue.
Sneed and his family removed to Modoc from Camp Creek.
Everett and Cynthia moved to Raleigh Co., WV where several of his siblings were living:
