which proceeded from a building on Mr.. }.

harry exertions, the fire was put out without
any serious damage to the house, but the
contents were considerably injured and dis

ashes having been thrown in a box the pre-
yious morning, and which remained on the

be fore the fire was discovered, doubtless
