stroyed could not be replaced for
100000. 10 say nothing of the little
household trinkets, presents, me-
mento9s Of friends that have passed
over the dark divide that never
can be replaced. Though the losses
fall heavy on all there is no one left
destitute, and as for hope and pluck
they are full of it. Before the smoke
had left the old stand, Golden had
ordered lumber for new building.

Those that were not left homeless
have done the best they could for
those that were burned out, and |

quarters all right. SO you see all

the savings Of years, but regrets are
useless, and all seem hopeful for
the future.

our thanks for assistance rendered
and offered. May your shadows
never grow less, and may you keep
out of the fire in this world--as We
know you will in the world to come.
