Surned To Deatis In HrAI Dairy Greenville, Nov. 12.?Floyd Gar rett, 22, and L. C. Boykins, 17, were boned to death early this morning when fire of undetermined origin destroyed the machinery depart ment at the Greenville Dairy on the Falkland road near here. The young men had sleeping quarters over the machinery room. They worked about the dairy. A third man in the sleeping quarters, W. C. (Cliff) York, a driver, made his escape by jumping from a porch. York said the boys were up when he made his escape and that he yelled to them to follow him. Chief George Gardner of the Green ville fire department said the boys must have become excited and suf focated before they were able to get out of the burning building. ? 1 W. U. McBroome, owner jiuu uF erator of the dairy, also declared he could not understand why the boys did not flee from the burning build ing unless they become too excited to find a means of escape, McBroome said he was unable to determine the exact cause of the fire. He listed faulty wiring or an explosion of the boiler as possible causes. He estimated the loss at around $1,500, and it is fully covered by insurance. The barn housing the cows was not damaged. The bodies of Garrett and Boykins were burned beyond recognition. The limbs of each were burned from their bodies. The two were found near the window from" which York made his escape, indicating they were about to get out of the build ing when they were overcome by smoke and heat ' 1 MAURY NEWS (By MISS MATTIE LEE SUGG) PERSONALS Mrs. L.
