had been no FIRE about the gin for several

that the FIRE was the work Of an ineendi-

ough repair for the ginning season, and
application had been made for a policy
of insurance in a Memphis company,
but the papers had not been properly
adjusted and the loss, amounting to
about two thousand dollars, falls upon
Mr.. Nelson. We learh the gin will be
rebuilt in time to gin this years cotton.
This is the fourth gin that has been
