BARN BURNED.

Implements "a Total Loss.
Mr. Mack Phillips, a prominent
citizen Of this county, residingnear
the mouth of Eagle Greek, had the
misfortune to loose his barn by fire
Thursday morning of last week.
The origin of the fire is unknown,
as no FIRE was kept at or near the
barn, which was discovered to be
burning as the family arose from
the breakfast table. A hired boy
had fed the stock and returned to
breakfast, a short while after which
the roof of the barn was discovered
to be falling in. The barn, which
was a very @oommodious one, was
well-flled with corn, besides, all of
his farming implements were hous-
ed in it, which were destroyed, and
doubtless were a total loss, as it is
not known that he carried any in
,surance.
