FIRE LAST NIGHT.


At about half-past nine o'clock last night an
alarm of fire was struck from box IS, located at
the engine house on MuDioy Hill. The fire
proved to be in a story and half wooden
dwelling house with a brick basement, at No.
191 Congress street. The fire was confined
largely to the upper part of the building,
though the entire house was badly damaged by
water. The house was occupied by two fami-
lies. In the basement by Patrick Silver, who
has large family; and in the attic by Mrs.
Julia DENY and her two sons. The tenement
between the two was uroccupied. Most of the
furniture in the basement was saved, but that
in the attic was destroyed. The fire is sup
posed to have caught from a defect in the
chimney, it starting nearly under the floor of
the rear loom in the attic The building is
owned by young son Of the late Patrick Brad
ley, be being the only heir of his fathers es-
tate, and who is under the guardianship of his
uncle, Arthur Bradley. The damage to the
building is estimated at about $780, 1t was in
sured for $1,000 in the Faneuil Hall Company
of Boston. at the agency of Dow, Cofin &
Libby.
The most serious feature of the fire was the
unfortunate death of Mrs. Deeny, an old
lady OF about 81 years of age She was alone
at the time, her sons being employed in the
evening. Two boys who knew that she was in
the room where the fire started had got up and
tugged her to the window from which place
Officer Stevens, assisted by several mer, took
her out. She was taken to house near by
and several physicians were called, but just
about the time they arrived she expired She
was bidly burned, but the immediate cause of
her death is thought to have been from suffo-
cation caused by inhaling the fire.
Coroner Matthew Adams was called, but
after investigating the particulars deemed an
inquest unnecessary.
