~ On "Wednesday might of
last week the most destructive
fire known 20 this county visited
Lynchburg. The large cotton
factory and mills Of Womack,
Dance & Co. were entirely des-
troyed, together with about 500
bushels of corn and l 600 bushels
of wheat. 1t is thought to have
been the work of an incendiary.
The loss is estimated at $40, 900,
and no insurance. We are told
that before the FIRE that consumed
the building was extinguished,
worrkmen were engaged remov-
ing the rubbish, preparatory to re-
building the mills. The factory
will not be replaced at present.
While the loss bears heavily pc
cuniarily upon a few Individuals,
it is also a public calamity, and
we can bat hope that. the public
spirit and energy that is promi.
nently characteristic of Lynch,
burg will speedily remedy the
misfortune, by the erection OF an
other factory and mills that will
reflect credit upon their enter
prise, and which viii be amply
insured.
