The destruction by fire of Mr.. j. l..

the third residence that has been

O'Clock at night and the family did
not discover it in time to save any
thing but themselves. The clothing,
bedding-indeed everything, was dis

Haley thought probably the fire was
the result of IA defective tlue in the

told the writer that he was rather in
to the opinion now, that it was
the work of an incendiary. 1t is a

only $4,000 INSURANCE: We deeply re-
gret his misfortune.

dence was modernized into the present Grand Central hotel in the year 1871. Henry Sanford, Marcus Hawley and Ex- Sheriff Aaron Sanford were the owners of the property. William Kellogg opened the hotel, as manager July f, 1871. The alterations on the hotel were in charge of Otis & Gillett, who began the work in January and rushed it quickly to completion.
 The store of Baldwin & Beers, which appears in the cut at the north of the church, is very old building. Ex Town Clerk Charles Henry Peck, to whom we are indebted for the informa- tion now given here, thinks it is over a hundred years old. It stands at present in the rear of the store of R. H. Beers, and is occupied by Ezra Hall. In 1925 Baldwin & Beers entered into a compact with the town to build town house (which may be seen in the picture ad- joining the store) for which the town was to pay $50 year for 50 years. A small building stood next the store where they wished to build. What did they do, tear it down? Not bit of it. They simply built over and around it,
 leaving the small office building undis, turbed. This was occupied as long ago as 1884 by Ex-Gov Dutton, by Amos Treat, and later by Gov Red stone, the famous old mail carrier and stage man.
 When Henry Sanford built the new store in 1872, the old store of Baldwin & Beers, then occupied by Sanford $ Bar. nun, was moved back to the present lc cation. A part of the old town house was allowed to remain and was incorpo rated in the new building, but the smal office building was torn out. One of tht last tenants of the old Judge Blackmal house was Zalmon Peck, then post master.
 This cut was made from photograph loaned us by Harry Orgelman. NJ

Disastrous Fire at Sandy Hook.

WILSON & KEATNG's FURNITURE AND
 UNDERTAKING BUILDING BURNED TO
 THE GROUND, SATURDAY MORNING.
 A disastrous fire occurred at Sandy Hook, last Saturday morning, complete ly destroying the building belonging to E. W. Wilson and the stock of furniture and undertaker's supplies of Wilson & Heating, who occupied the building.
 The origin of the fire will never be certainly known, but it is very probable that the stove exploded from some cause and did the damage. It was between 8 and o'clock when MT Heating was in front of the building shoveliDg the snow away for path. All of;a sudden there was loud report heard by several in the neighborhood and when MT Heating hur- fied around he saw that the office was filled with fire. It spread with great ra- pidity and the smoke was so dense that getting in where the fire was was out of the question, although an attempt was made to use hand grenades. The alarm of fire spread rapidly. The bell was rung -and the hose kept at the Mantle Mills laid and the pumps set to work as soon as possible. It didn't take 6 great while to do it, but the fire had gained fearful headway and although the full force of the stream of water was played upon it. it seemed to laugh and lick up the water and continue it's destruction. Sandy Hook has no organized fire de partment, but it's volunteers battled roy ally and did all that could be done. But best of all was that silent fire department, the Pootatuck river, running the wheels at the Mantle mills and sending a large stream of water with great force against its antagonist. Its value was fully real ized and for that one mornings work it saved to Sandy Hook several thousand dollars, for had it r-1t been for the con trol it kept of the fire all of the adjoining buildings must have gone and there is no telling where destruction would have stopped. Another fortunate feature was the snow on the roofs which kept them protected. The building, which was a large wooden structure, and one of the best in Sandy Hook, was about three hours in burning. All that was left was small ortion of the rear end, which was badly charred that it is ruined. Dur. ing the progress of the fire some of the furniture was removed, but it is so badly damaged as to be valueless. The loss is complete and all that is left to tell of what happened is ashes and charred tim bers. The barn which stood directly in the rear and only few feet away was not even scorched, nor were any of the | adjoining buildings damaged.
 The fire was not without it's comical scenes, and on more than one occasion when the hose was lost control of for a minute by those who held the nozzle some unfortunate spectator who got too near got ducking and force of water rushing against him that he will not soon forget. Those who were in the thickest of the fight were covered with ice and
 several suits of clothes suffered. The
 water was kept playing on the ember;
 till we'll into the afternoon and till every
 sign of fire had disappeared.

Policeman Bradley shot 8 valuable horse belonging to Nash 6 Peffers, Mon day morning. The animal was hired by a young man, Sunday, under the state. ment that he was to drive to Newtown. It is alleged that he first drove about Danbury considerably and then went to Newtown, and after returning went to Maplewood. The horse was exhausted when it reached the stable and it's condi- tion vas such this morning that it was shot. No arrests have been made but there is little doubt that the Humane society will take the case up if the local authorities do not do so.--EDanbury News.
