The large frame house joining the brick
dwelling of Mrs, James A. WellS near Fall
Branch, was burned last Saturday night The
building as about fifty feet by twenty feet,
One room was occupied by a colored family,
aud whilst they were absent, the FIRE SNAPPED
out and fell upon a bed near the FIRE, and in
a few minutes the whole building was con-
sumed. A white family by the name ofClay,
occupied the other rooms, and they were able
Wy the help of friends to save the most Of
their property. If it had not been a damp
night, doubtless the dwelling house of Mrs,
Wells, and the large store house of WILDER

citizens in the neighborhood, and Lawyer
Kirkpatrick of this place, deserve much
praise for their timely assistance.
