The house owned and occupied by
Charles Bedat near BotSfOrd was burn

Monday afternoon, between 4 and
O'Clock. One of Mr. Bedat's children,
seeing the smoke issuing from an upper
window, warned the father, who upon
opening the stairway door, found the

There was nothing saved, except an
old chest. Mr. BedaJ not only loses his
house, all the furniture and all the
clothing of the family, but in the Gel
lar there were 10 bushels of pota toes,
60 bushels of turnips, 10 barrels of APP
pies, $50 head of cabbage and over 100
jars of preserved fruit. A daughter,
Miss Rose, lost a sum Of money, which
was in her trunk. 1t is thought that
the fire caught from defective flue.
Mr. Bedat estimates his loss about
s., 600, with small insurance. Hobart
Fairchild and Edward Ives opened
their homes until other shelter could
be found.
Mr. Bedat has rented the north half
of Miss Mary Botsford's house at the
depot and will move his family as soon
as the necessary furniture can be OBJ
tanned. Mr. Bedat is suffering with a
lame shoulder and has been unable to
work for a number of weeks. Mrs

seven children to Re provided for. Any
contributions in the way of furniture,
clothing, vegetables and money will
be thankfully received, and can be left
at Mr. Bedat'S new home or at The
