Wooden building on Fayetteville street, in the
very heart of the city, and in It's most combus-
tibIe part The fre was inserted through an
aperture in the stone foundation, just under
the sill of the tenement, occupied by MI. Jo-
seph Belts, and brick was placed before the
opening, 10 conceal the light, but which, in
fact, acted as blower to the flame. II must
have been discovered soon after il was placed
there, but would have accomplished the pur-
pose designed, but for the fortunate circum-
stance that Mr.. Krause, the Tobacconist, who
lives next door, had large vessel of water on
hand, within three feet of the fire, with
which the blaze was extinguished, though ii
had made considerable headway.
