Man Fatally Burned In Larne Station House Fire
Sanwel Laughman of Seitzville died from burns after his clothing caught fire in the P RR station house at Larne twelve miles south of York. Coroner Zech ruled the death accidental with several theories about ignition. A wealthier resident heard screams around 12 30 am and found Laughman ablaze near a residence rear. Blood spots showed a track walker tried to switch on electric light but failed. Witnesses noted Laughman may have been drinking and a 1924 revoked license for intoxicated driving is cited. Laughman said two men demanded he go home, but investigators found no evidence.
