DESTROYED BY
MIDNIGHT FIRE

Shortly after midnight this morning;
the old John Donahue cottage on Pontiac
road. In Auburn. occupied by an Italian
family. was practically wholly destroyed
by nre, only portions OF the walls being
left standing
The village was aroused little after 1
o'clock by the call OF Are. and the Au-
burn volunteers responded promptly.
Hose IL OF Elmwood wns telephoned for
and made a quick run TO the scene.
The fire started in the kitchen around
the chimney and made rapid progress
through the dwelling
The fire companies worked hard: but
the blaze had gained such headway that
only few articles of furniture were
saved
The houses across the road were in con-
siderable danger for a time from sparks:
but the liberal use OF garden hose proved
sufficient TO overcome this difficulty.

the case.
