The new Court House at Montpelier,
was destroyed by fire on Tuesday morning
of last week. Nothing in the building was
saved except the papers in the County
Clerks Office, which was in its basement
story. The VT. Waterman says:
All the county court files for this term,
both old and new entries, including deposit
ton, &c.,-all the chancery files of the new
entries-the judges minutes and papers-
the Comfy court dockets for the four terms
of 1912 aud lS43, and volume of the ear
~ records, including the year 1912, were
in the court room and were destroyed
This loss of course occasions much incon-
venience to the court, lawyers and parties
yet the court is going on (at the Masonic
Hal, } in the trial OF state causes, and such
cases, as can be prepared anew. For other
cases an adjournment term will be holden
probably in March.
The courthouse was new, costing about
$500 including the land, and was insured
for $4,000. With the insurance money, the
land, and the brick, and stone left, the
county has suffered very little loss.

Congress- TO restore fines TO other officers inflicted
them for violations of law in the performance of their
