 The house and barn of Burt Goodell east of Staffordville, on what was form erly known as the Holmes place, was burned on Sunday night. MT. Goodell whose house is a half mile away, says that he was alarmed by the bleating ot the cattle in the burning building, and or going with his hired man found the build ing too far gone to allow of any attempt to save any of the stock, three COWS anc three horses, or other contents of the barn, consisting of a moving machine anc other farming tools, hay, etc. While al the barn the houseRlso broke into flames and was entirely burned. Mir. Goodel says that his mostsericas loss was $100C in cash which he had in trunk, and the theory is advanced that both house and barn were fired by some one to cover the robbery of the money. The house and barn and contents were insured for $2500 but here comes a strange complication It is said that Mir. Goodell had not yet purchased the place on which the barn stood, though he had made considerable repairs on the barn. In the policy the barn was called the property of Mr. Good ell, and the house insured was designated as 100 feet distant, which would specify an abandoned and uninhabitable house across the road from the barn. MT. Good ell, it seems, had just built a small house upon adi joining land which he owns, and assumes that his insurance was placed up on this house, of which the insurance |oSonb, mI' hoL mOou, Hau HO hho"l0uSe whatever. It is 8 mixed up affair, and may lead to litigation.
