Last Wednesday night the barn and
all of it's contents and the gin house
near by of Mr.. III. j. Robins, who lives
Mt the old Hammond place, about FIVE
miles northeast of the city, we're burn
ed. In the barn were four mules, a lot
Of forage and farming tools, and the
gin house contained about three bales
of seed cotton, none of which were
saved. A horse was also in the barn,
but next morning it was found ut the
Shirley place, several miles distant
from Mr.. Robins home. 1t is the gen
eral opinion that the fire was the work
of an incendiary, who took the horse
out of the barn and rode it way. Mr..
Robins and family were spending the
night away from home. The fire was
discov cred by some of his neighbors,
who went to the scene and saved the
dwelling from being burned. MIR.
Robins, who is most worthy and in
dustrious young man, had no insur-
ance, and the loss falls quite heavy on
him. The place belongs to the estate
of the late S. Bleckley and there was
no insurance on the buildings.
