The discovery of the burning of the
bridge over Little river on the Smith
field railroad prevented loss of life and
nue. damage to property yesterday
afternoon. The fire which caused h
damage originated in tn woods nearby.
The dry timbers in the woods and the
dead grass caused the flames to spread
rapidly and the bridge had begun to
burn before people in the neighborhooi
discovered the fire. 1t was very fortu-
nate that the fire was noticed. Other
wise the train which was due to leave
here this morning would undoubtedly
nav gone to the bottom of the river.
A special train was sent out from
Smithfield from off the main line of the
Atlantic Coast Line to make n regu-
lar schedule. A wrecking rain was
sent to the scene late last night and
