year, and collected this year also.

the prompt assistance rendered by the
fire department, and ready supply
of water. The fire broke out in the
roof around the fue, which is of
brick where it passes through the
roof. The fire had been extlnguished
in the furnace for some time prior,

the tiue had been smouldering, IN
known to the workmen, and after
getting sufficient Roadway, ignited

in the roof was the only damage.
