The Burning OF Governor Bradfortass
House,

l4sU
We regret to learn that the rebel guerillas
under Harry Gilmor, numbering some dozen,
surrounded the country mansion of Cover
nor Bradford, on Charles street ayenue, ct
daylight this morning, about four miles from
the city, and ordered Mrs. Bradford and her
family to vacate the premises. They allowed
them to remove some household Tuluables,
and at eight o'clock this morning fired the
premises
They had previously arrested all the citi-
zens IN the netghborhood, including Captain
William J. Bryson. and John Clarke, Esd.
who they kept under custody till the flames
were well under way. Captain Bryson, Is
soon aB released, went to work with other
citizens to save US much OF the furniture and
effects as could be secured. Nearly MI the
private papers and Valuables OF the Governor
were destroyed, including his library.
They took one horse ont Of Mr.. Presbury'B
stables, about four miles out on the Charles
street avenue, and are also understood to
haye carried OF many valuable horses from
the neighborhood.
The residence of the Governor was one of
the most extensive and elegant establish.
ments in the vicinity of the city.
The Governor came to town on Sunday
evening, and thus saved himself from being
carried off MS prisoner, as well as his car
riage and two valuable horses.
A gentleman who was present at the time
that Governor Bradford's house was burned,
eaYs be was arrested and detained by the
rebels until after they bad fred the building.
The actors had written order in these
words: sThe house of Governor Bradford to
be burned, in retaliation for the burning of
