Tragedy remembered

On July 14, 1931, Norman Bilzeit, 45, of Tamaqua, staggered into the Sun Oil Company plant at the Taggartsville bridge and fell over dead. It was 85 years ago this month when seven men attending a casual campfire gathering near Tamaqua died an agonizing death. See Saturday's Spotlight for the story. DONALD R. SERFASS/TIMES NEWS
