Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1885-03-04

About one o'clock Monday morn
ing, the Albion House, on River street,
owned by Murdoch Mcdonald, was
discovered to be on fire. An alarm
being sounded, hose Co. No. I prompt
ly turned out. The fire is thought to
have originated at the dining room
chimney. In short time the flames
spread through the upper part of the
building and burned very fiercely.
No. 2 company was called out. A
brisk wind famed the flames, and at
one time it seemed as if the adjacent
buildings would be burned. Good
work by the fire department prevent.
ed the fire from spreading, and after
several hours hard work, the fire was
subdued. Nearly every room in the
upper story had the roof burned of
or was badly charred, and every one Of
the rooms had to be deluged with wa
ter. In one room the ceiling was a
mass of burned wood, and yet the
clothes on the bed were uninjured by
the fire. The entire building is a
complete wreck. The loss will amount
to between $4,000 and $4,000. The
insurance consisted of $4,000 on the
building, $4,000 ON the furniture, in
companies of which j. d. Holmes is
the agent, and 5000 on the stock Of
liquors, in company of which Seage
q Kelley are the agents. The wealth
err was very cold at the time Of the
fire. In combining the fire to the
building, the fire brigade did good
work. The upper story Of hotel,
being divided into so many small
rooms, makes difficult work for the
firemen to get at the flames. In one
room, off which the roof had burned,
were several straw hats hung on nails,
and uninjured. About twenty trunks
belonging to boys in the lumber woods
were saved, while many of the board
ers lost their clothes which were hung
up in their rooms.

On the occasion of Mrs. r. Mills
leaving Long Rapids, the members of
her Sunday school class, presented
their affectionate regards in the fol-
lowing address
DEAR TEAcHER.-The time has
come when we must part. We won
der why it should be, but believing It
to be the Lords will, that He has
work for you elsewhere to do, we must
say as you have taught us, "The will
of the Lord be DONE" Gall things
work together for good to those who
love the Lord" 1t must be all for
the best, although we cant see it so.
Although we have always enjoyed
your teaching we seem to see the
value Of your services now rs you are
about to leave us, more than ever be-
fore. We do not know how we can
get along without you, but we trust
the Lord, who cares for his own work,
will send us substitute who will be
interested in us, and teach us the will
of the Lord as you have. We were
anxious TO know how to express our

thanks to you for the interest you
took in us, and remembering that of
ten, irrespective of your own comfort,
you were found in your place as our
teacher, we thought we could find
nothing to present to you that would
please you better than this precious
volume as a token of our gratitude
and as something by which you can
remember us, the book from which
you have taught us so faithfully the
"Words Of Life" We prize it not
for the small sum which we paid for
it, but for the preciousness of the
words which it contains. You have
taught us to love them and to live by
them and we trust your labor has not
been in vain. Knowing therefore,
from our acquaintance with you for
the past few years, that you love to
often read those words and feast upon
them, we wish YOU to remember us
every time you read it, and may the
Master long spare you to do so and to
work for Him as you are doing. And
now, dear teacher, we wish you one
thing more, viz: That you will re-
member us individually in your pray
ers and also help us in praying for
our future teacher, that she may love
to work for the Master. Hoping that
our meetings may yet be many and
often and that at last we may all meet
with Jesus where we shall forever be
happy, we are your beloved scholars
and shall remain your well-wishers
until death.

commend.
