To the Editor of the Press
About eight o'clock last evening our quiet
village was thrown into great state of excite
ment by the cry of fire. 1t came from the
store of r. w Soule which was occupied by
Mr.. Soule for grocery and confectionery store.
1t appears that Mr.. Soule's clerk started to 60
down the cellar to get something for customer
and seeing that his lamp needed filling, attempt
ed to pour some oil into the lamp while it was
burning. The gas communicated with the
fame and he dropped the lamp near the kero-
sene barrel, which in a few moments was all IN
a flame. Several men were in the store at the
time but all efforts to put out the fire proved
of no avail. So rapid were the flames that Mr..
Soule's wife, who lived in the upper part of the
store, had barely time to catch her little child
from the bed and run down stairs with it, and
to call some one to save her little boy, some
six or seven years Of age, who was in bed direct
ly over the place where the kerosene barrel was.
A Mr.. Whitney who was standing near at
tempted the difficult feat and had to rush
through the hames burning the beard from
the side of his face and also blistering it, and
caught the child from the bed and carried il

loss of most of his hair And all this was
done, seemingly, in less than minute, SO
rapid were the flames. Mr.. Soule had quite a
stock of goods, and loses everything, household
furniture, goods and all, with no insurance
The store was owned by j. T. Lambert and was
insured in the National of Bangor for $780,
The fire-rapidly spread to the adjoining
buildings. The next buildngiwas the drug store
of j. L. Lambert. Mr.. Lambert's loss was
heavy; insured in the Etna for $1,000. His
house and stable next followed; insured in the
Republic for $780, The store of G.. W.
Wheeler was next burned, insured in the
National for $1,000. All this time the fire was
operating in the street in the direction of
Adams & Robinsons Hotel. The next to take
the flames that way was the hardware store of
of W. f. Fuller Mr. Fuller's loss was large;
insured in the Aetna for $1,000. The fire then
reached the dwelling house and stable of J. E.

our entire village must have been swept away.

insurance is very light for those who were in

for the indomitable energy and perseverance of
