Fire at Brunswick.

About Il minutes of I O'Clock last
Friday morning the residence of City
Marshal 7. R. Harrison of Brunswick
was discovered to be on fire by Mrs.
Robert Kindred, who had gotten
up to wake her son so that he could
go to work at the Brunswick brick and
tile factory.
The alarm was given. and the fire
department and near neighbors re-
sponded as quickly as possible, but
the flames made such rapid progress
that only the contents of one room
could be saved, and what was left of
the building is only a blackened and
charred mass of ruins.
When the alarm was given Mr.
Harrison and family, who were sleep
ing upstairs, arose at once, but eX-
perienced much difficulty in reaching
the lower floor, owing to both the
upper and lower halls being filed with
smoke.
1t is not known how the fire started.
The building contained five rooms
and two halls. The house was in
sured for $500 and the contents for
$500 in the Phoenix Insurance Co.
OF Brooklyn Of which Knappenberger
& Son are the local representatives.
Mr.. Harrison and family have the
sympathy of numerous friends In their
misfortune, especially after 1t was
learned that their loss will exceed the
amount of insurance by about $500.
Mr.. Harrison has since rented a house
from Capt. LOUIS Benecke where he
and his family will reside until he can
make arrangements to rebuild, which
he hopes to be able to do sometime
this fall.

two miles east of Keytesviile, whose
