The Oskaloosa Independent, Jefferson County, Saturday, December 6, 1873 December 6, 1873
We learn that Mr. J.W. POLAN, photographic artist, formerly of this place, and
three other young men, were burned to death in a hotel at Warrensburg, Mo., a
few nights ago. It is supposed they were all smothered by smoke and heat before
the flames reached them. This is terrible! and the many friends of Mr. Poland
will be deeply pained at this intelligence, and the sad termination of his life.
