between Sunday and Monday; and little doubt il
entertained that it was designed. for the purpose o.
bringing the engines out. The houses destroyed
were all frames, of inconsiderable value; yet per-
haps not 30 esteemed by their respective owners
One of them owned and occupied by Mr..
Wilson, wheelwnght and blacksmith, whose loss is
about $500
Another was occupied by Mr. j E. w. Thomp-
son, cabinet maker. His loss, we believe, is $500
or 8 800.
The little shop Of Mrs. Jackson was Of little value,
though perhaps not regarded so by her
Two shoe shops, kept by colored men,. were also
destroyed
Mr.. Rutherford, stone cutter, sustained damage
to the amount we believe of several hundred dol
lars but he was insured.
