LOSS APPROACHES $300,000; POLICE TRAIL SUSPECTED MAN North Tonawanda. Oct 29 - With armed guards standing watch over all lumber yards in this city and two special policemen detailed to guard the swing bridge leading to Tonawanda Island, where several large lumber plants are located, the residents of Tonawanda and North Tonawanda live tonight in fear of other outrages such as hate terrorized this city last night and today. Within the last twenty-four hours lumber interests of this city have a loss approaching $300,000 from fires supposed to be incendiary. In addition to this, the Adamite company's loss will reach $50,000. Watchman's Body Found. The body of William Manth of Gratwick, forty-four years old, watchman at the Adamite company plant, was found shortly before 8 o'clock this evening. A large number of men, under the leadership of Thomas J. Hamilton, searched all day among the ruins for the body. When found tonight the body was about twelve feet from the front of the building, lying face downward. From a superficial examination it would seem Manth, in his endeavor to escape when he discovered the building was on fire, had started toward the Street, been overcome by smoke and burned to death. The body which was severely burned, was taken from the ruins after having been viewed by the coroner and taken to Hump's undertaking rooms, where it now lies. John Manth, sixteen years old, son of the watchman, aided much of the time today in the search for his father's body. At one time, overcome by fatigue and the uncertainty as to the whereabouts of his father, the young man fainted. After he was revived he insisted upon resuming work. When the body was uncovered tonight, he was but a short distance away. Michael Swend and Joseph Gambus, who were with Manth last, say they left him about 2 o'clock near the Brady lumber yards, where all three had been watching the fire. Swead and Gambus returned to the Adamite plant started to eat their lunch, but were driven from the building by the tire. Swead and Gambus were driven out of the building without opportunity to get their outer clothing. | MANTH, William (I60709)

| 26400 | The hard to read marr. entry said he and his bride were widowed. Thus it did not show his father's name. However in the three birth entries of three children (1732-1736) it clearly showed a Heinrich Schwenk to be Johannes' father. Hans Jerg Sauter, Engelwirt, was GP. And in one or two of the christenings, the wife of local pastor was G Mother. The mother A. Margarethe Mangold's maiden name Mangold appeared in about two of these entries which proves we have the correct Johannes Schwenk. | SCHWENK, Johannes (I10258)
