- SEVEN SMALL COFFINS - In St. John's Churchyard on the Six Nations Indian Reservation yesterday afternoon, friends and neighbours gather round the seven small coffins of the children who perished in the disastrous fire which destroyed their frame home two days ago. The pallbearers were boys who had been friends of the dead children and on each of the coffins was a small wreath.
