keep the flames from spreading to the contiguous
buildings, and In a brief space the stable save
the walls, was reduced to ashes This is the third
time Mr.. Shreves' stable has been DESTROYED by

The paint shop Of Mi John Borland and the
frame carriage house attached to the stable Of Mr.
Howard adjoining, were torn down by the Hook
and Ladder Company which prevented in a great
measure the spread Of the fire to the adjacent
houses. Mr.. p. Thyson had a considerable lot of
general stores slowed away in Mr. Howards car

property destroyed is 81 Goo, covered however by

occasion one of the colored boys was convicted
and sent to the penitentiary, and the other ac-
qultted The suspicion now rests on this one,
