About 4:30 Monday morning, the S. II
* Il. depot was discovered to be on fire,
and the flames had made such Roadway
as to render it impossible to save the
building or any of its contents. The
loss OF property is not heavy, as the
depot was an old frame building, but
the destruction of all books and records
not only of Paw Paw station but also OF
the general offices of the road located IN
the second story, is one that is OF great
Importance to the company and will
lead to any amount of confusion and
trouble.
The fire started, probably, from a
stove in the upper story.
A box car that was near the depot
was partly burned.
The railroad people found temporary
office room in w. j. Thomas house, q
little south of the track, and by the mid
die of the forenoon were doing bushes:
as usual with desks, typewriter, tele
phone, etc.
The True Northerner hopes to see
new aud substantial depot built in thu
spring-one that is suitable for the bes
paying station on the line of the road.

1868 may be dated the really important
start in transforming the wilderness into
smiling homes. In 1870 the mill property
passed into the hands of Packard Bros,
together with several hundred acres of
choice timber. This land as fast as
cleared is being converted into luxuriant
fields and promising orchards. The mill
has collected quite a number of families
about it, until the place has really quite
the air of village, and has a postoffice
known as Covert. My short stay there
impressed me with the feeling that this
was the home of neighborly friendship
and good feeling and the paradise of tenn
perance principles.
