Notes for: Edwin Luther Lowther

Local news item, "Doddridge County Republican," Thursday, Mar 11 1915, in its entirety:
"Fire Destroys Blandville Home
The many friends of Ed Lowther will be sorry to hear of the loss of his home which was destroyed by fire early last Friday morning. The dwelling was a tidy little cottage on a beautiful location at Blandville, and in every respect a comfortable and commodious country home.
The fire started in the wardrobe and had gained such headway in this enclosure that it was impossible to successfully combat it when it was discovered, and the spread of the flames was so rapid that practically none of their household goods were saved. The loss is estimated at $1500, only $750 of which is covered by insurance."
