About four o'clock in the afternoon of Wednesday
last an alarming fire broke out in the dwelling-house of Mr.
Richard Ireland, miller, adjoining the extensive premises and
paper-mills of Mr. Charles Matthews, of Kensham, Bradninch,
Devonshire. By the active exertions bf the men who were
at work in the mills, with the neighbours, and the timely ar-
rival of two fire engines, the fire was confined to the house.
It is worthy of remark that the places where fires have taken
place in Devon during the week, namely, Silverton, Brad-
ninch, Bickleigh, Ilayne, and Upton Pyne, are within an
hour's walk of each other. On Sunday afternoon the congre-
gation of Southrnoulton Church was alarmed by the informa-
tion that the workhouse was in flames. Engines were speedily
conveyed to the spot ; but, for want of water, the fiee could
not be subdued until the building was destroyed. A girl.
named Ann tluxtable, has been committed to prison, charged
with having fired the building.—Bath
