The other Saturday morning
Thompson's Mill, at Potter's Bank
with all it's contents was burned to the
ground. Mr.. VIM. J. Thompson, the
owner, estimates his loss over $4,000
and that Of Mr.. w. r. From, the
Miller, at about $125. We learn that
Mr.. Thompson had carried an .insur
ance on his mill for many years, but
failed to renew his policy last spring
when it had expired. 1t is suspected
that the fire was the work of an in
cendiary.
