told them be feared their house was on

frightened, and exclaimed that her
child was in bed up stars, and at once
started to its rescue, but the gentleman
restrained her and requested her to be
quietly seated. he then assembled to
the room above, and gently opening the
door, stepped ihto the room, closing the
door quickly after him.
Here he found candle had been left
standing and forgotten in work-basket

Of the basket, and the flames had com.
