GorLpsvILLE FlRE.-At about quarter
mast five clock, Friday afternoon, Jan. 3lst,
fire was discovered il the fourth story OF the
wooden factory of Messrs. j. and j. w
Gould. ia a few moments it had spread
with rapidity which plainly showed the
whole building was doomed to destruction.
The alarm was Immediately given, by the
ringing of the factory bell, and soon there
were many Wiling hands at work removing
ANYTHING Of value from the building. Word
was quickly sent to Mortified Village for the
assistance of the fire companies, which soon
arrived, bat owing to the deep snow, and
many hindrances, it was some little time be-
fore they could be of any service. They,
however. soon made up for lost time, by
thoroughly drenching barn standing lit
tie to the east Of the factory, which with Its
bav had caught fire. They were also sue
ces sful in saving some seventeen barrels OF
lard oil, stored IN the cellar of building,
between the barn and factory, This bullt-
ing was almost entirely burned to the
ground.
For time it was feared the boarding
house would burn, and, as usual at fires, the
furniture was put out of the way of being
injured. by smashing it cut of the windows.
but owing 10 tic noble Efforts of few men,
the house was saved with but a slight scorch-
ing.
During the fire, property such as wool,
flannel, cotton, &c, was saved to consider
able amount. the value CT which has not, as
vet. been determined. Hundreds of people
from all PARTS OF the town assembled, doing
all ii at could lie done TO save the property
ard check the h.mes, but such was the
rapidIty of the FIRE, that within an hour anc
a half. from the time it was first seen, The
main part OF the building had gone. No.
Fire Company left about 10 o clock, and No.
at II. By this fire some sixty hands art
suddenly thrown out of employment, many
of whom, depended upon each days la bo
for their living. and what they are to d.
now, during the remainder of the winter
Is hard to tell.
Messrs Joseph and Joseph W. Gould
have lone themselves up bra7ely unde
this great loss, AID they, as well as the poo
peop.e WHO are now out of work, receiv
the sympathy of the entire community
During or after the fire some despicabl
c1avens helped themselves to what the
could take home, such as several cuts {
cloth, two tubs of butter, one tub CT pork
and several such things which were neve
known to walk away without help. Lar
guage fails to give such reTsonsa hard enCug
name, and he who takes advantage of al
others misfortune, deserves the cJntemI
and sc9rn OF all honorable persons.
The loss is SlI5.050, and is only insure
for about onc-Jhlrd, not over. The cause c
the fire is unknown, but it was first seen
the pickers' room.
CARD OF TuANKs-Messrs. j. and j. W
Gould, wish to express their sincere than
to the many persons who labored so har
ard rendered them such valuable assistanc
during the fire ; and especially, to the Fl
Companies who worked so long and mob
in staying the flames. All deserve the hIg
est praise.
