house and Several Acres Of
Woodland Were Burned.

A big brush and timber fire swept over
seven square miles OF territory north OF
Putnam pike in Burrlllvihe yesterday,
burning the farmhouse of John White
and destroying about 700 cords of cut
wood.
The blaze was originated from brush
fire which A. NJ. Hawkins OF Burrillville
had started near his saw mill at Wilbur
pond. The strong wind soon swept the
fire beyond his control and although
three or four men came 10 his assistance
at the beginning their united efforts were

The news OF the spreading fire called
out a big force OF volunteer fire hghters
from Pascoag and Bridgeton, but their
efforts could not save the White farm
house, although they succeeded in saving
the barns and outhouses.
The loss on the house is estimated at
$500 and on the furniture 5000, OF which
an insurance OF $500 on the house was the
only protection.
The wood destroyed belonged to several
persons, Mr. Hawkins losing 800 cords.

other houses, including the residence or
William Staples and Thomas Kennedy,
were threatened by the flames, but hard
work on the part OF the fire fighters
saved them.
1t has been estimated that the loss so
far IS about 5000.
