| cations were made on behalf of Lord
De F'reyne for DEGREES for possession
against a number of tenants on the
estate who had signed caretaKerS
| agreements within the past few years.
1t transpired that since the signing or
the agreements rent had been paid by
the tenants. to whom receipts were
given, with the words ION account of
debt inserted, instead of ION account
OF rent" In one case a tenant had
paid five years rent within the past
few years. Her case was adjourned
for two months. Two other cases were
adjourned for fortnight in order that
the tenants might be professionally
represented. 1t was mentioned that
owing to pressure of legal business
elsewhere, they were unable to pro-
cure a solicitor for that day, and the
magistrate expressed doubt as to
whether the acceptance by the land
lord of money which coincided with the
amount of the rent did amount to
breaking of the caretakers' agreements.

Destructive Fire at Cork.-A destruc-
tive fire broke out on Saturday night
in the splendid residence of Mr.. A. F.
Sharman Crawford. LOta. The house
consists of two portions-the main
building and the servants apartments,
in which the fire originated in the west
ern wing, and which was totally de-
stroyed. The outbreak was discovered
in the linen room by the housekeeper,
who at once summoned the other ser
wants in the house. Mr.. Crawford, with
his family, being at present on the
continent, but expected back this week
The alarm was received about 1890
o'clock by the Cork fire brigade, who, I
under Superintendent Hutson, at once
repaired to the scene with hose reel
and manual engine, but owing to the
fact that the tide was at its lowest,
the latter engine was of little avail,
and the utmost difficulty was expert !
enced in getting sufficient water to !
cope with the flames, which now ragged |
all through the extensive servants por |
ton. To prevent the fire spreading to |
the main building the brigade set to |
work on the roof joining the two por
tions, and this they had the satisfac-
tion of seeing fall into the basement |
about o'clock on Sunday morning, all |
danger of the spreading being, there |
fore, practically at an end. The valu |
able furniture and paintings were, in |
the first instance, taken on to the lawn |
and subsequently brought to the resi- |
dence of a neighoring gentleman, Mr.. |
Hail. The building was insured. The |
main building was preserved intact.
