"A barrack located in his field probably
two hundred yards away. and "A moment
later it was developed IN lanes which
soon licked It up in smoke.

size, was filled with hay estimated Mt
from twenty five to thirty tons. There
was $500 insurance ON the building and
5000 on contents, held in the Hartford
Mutual Company.
The cautc OF the fire is not certainly
known but supposed to have originated
from the presence Of tramps. hs one was
seen Ia leave there between seven and
eight o'clock and two more between
eight and nine O'Clock. The fire started
soon afterwards and had burned itself
out hv 10 o'clock.
