Sunday, during Divine Service, information was re-
ceived at the parish church. of Easthampstead, Berk',
that Easthampstead Park-house, the residence of the
Marquis of Downshire, was on fire. The noble Mar-
qui-, attended by his servants, and followed by the
principal part of the congregation, repaired to the spot,
and after considerable exertions, by cutting off the
communication with the main building, succeeded in
confining the ravages of the destructive element to the
laundry and kitchen, in which it had commenced.
Unfortunately, the supply of water was deficient, and
much damage must have been done to the furniture
and pictures from th.e hasty way in which they were
removed from the house to the grounds. It is under-
stood that the file was occasioned by some flue from
the kitchen or laundry having taken fire and burst.—
Rasthampstead Park was formerly a royal residence in
1381. Richard IL retired there to recreate himself
with hunting. Catherine I, Queen of Henry VIII. re-
sided here when the King sent some Lords of the Coun-
cil to induce her to consent to a divorce ; and in 1622,
King James I. occupied it for a considerable time. The
park and manor are now the property of the Marquis
of Downshire.
