church OF st. Leiven Minister. at Zarickzee,
with the pulpit and the magnificent organ,
which was esteemed to be the best 10 the
country after that of HearIem. and, 10 short.
every thing that the church contained, was
destroyed by FIRE, so that only the bare walls
remained. The fire began half an hour after
midnight, and Continued till LATE honr on
the following day. The inhabitants, and,
above ali. the sailors of the gun.boats station
ed of the town. exerted themselves to save
the houses, since to qIench the fire in the
church was impossible. Their efforts were
crowned with success, for the fakes Of fire
fell on the houses all round, and threatened
half the town with destruction, not one house
was burnt. This great disaster, by which
the town of Zurickzee is deprived Of its
greatest ornament, is asctlbed 10 the same
cause as the fire which destroyed the Lutheran
church at Amsterdam some years ago
