FIRE AT BUNNELLTOWN.

The home of Mrs. Charles Marsh
was destroyed by fire last Saturday
evening, entailing a loss to her of
about $1,000. There was, how
ever, an insurance of $400 on the
contents.
The origin of the fire is supposed
to have started by the explosion of
a lantern that had been in use, and
prior to the family leaving the house
the lantern was given jerk, en-
deavoring to extinguish the light
in this manner, and placed upon the
floor in the kitchen In a short
time black smoke was seen coming
from the house and neighbors, some
of whom had been there only an
hour before, ran to the dwelling.
They found the room was filed with
smoke, the fire having not yet brok-
en- out. AS soon as entrance was
gained great long tongues of fire
shot out of the building. The
smoke was so dense that it was i'm
possible to save much of the con-
tents. A cook stove, sewing machine
and phonograph, however, besides a
few light pieces of furniture, were
taken out of the burning building.
The structure was well-construct-
ed farm house and was the property
of Harry Bunnell of Berlin. His loss
is about $4,000.
Mrs. Charles Marsh, her son and
the formers brother, Joseph Acker-
man, occupied the house.
