the ceiling and the first floor, creeping
along to partition where it broke
out.
During the progress of the fire an
ember fell near the barn of P. M.

was burned to the ground. It's con-

The owners of the property are not
prepared to say what may be expected
of them. They are not talking very
encouragingly of an immediate rebuild
