New England Weekhj Journah Oct. 13, 1729. gives this account: "We have
received the following melancholy relation from Billerica. That on the
Lord's day. the 5th instant, a house was burnt there, wherein were two
small children, who were both consumed in the flames. It seems the heads
of the family were gone to the publick worship, and left at liome, three
children, the eldest, a girl of about twelve years old, who had the care of
the others ; but she, going a little ways from the house, to drive some
swine that had got into the corn ; in the mean time, the house took tire and
burnt so vehemently, that when she came to it, she could not get into
it, or do anything to save the other poor children."' Abu/ail, b. 1730,

LANE, Job, was prob. from Eickmansworth, in Hertfordshire, where
lands which he inherited were located, {N. E. H. and G. Reg., Vol. XVII,
p. 266,) and in 1654, was 30 years old. That he was the Job Lane
at Rehoboth, 1644, is not prob. He was a carpenter, and made payment
for the • Winthrop farm,' of 1500 acres, which he purchased in 1664, Aug. 2,
for £230. bj' building a house in New London, Conn., for Fitz John
Winthrop. He also ^uilt the great bridge in 1668. He owned a
considerable estate in England, the rents of which he received during life,
bequeathing the property to his son, John. He lived, first, in Maiden,

he returned to Maiden, where he d. 1697. Aug. 23. His house was the only
one bej^ond Ealph Hill's, towards Concord, until after 1675, when on
account of his remote situation, he was permitted to garrison his own
house. The place is probably that now occupied by Hiram Dutton, on the
east side of the road, a few rods north from Huckin's street, and it is not
impossible that the ancient house of Mr. Dutton is the same which he
built. He bought, in Maiden, the Coytmore Mill of Mrs. John Coggan.
and bequeathed it to his son-in-law. Edward Sprague. Mrs. Coggan's
first husband was Thomas Coytmore. and her second husband. Gov. John
