George V. HaIlard's Houss With Con tsnts Hurned-Mrs. Marion F Knight Dead- Alonxo Wsbster Killed on Track Near Eliiott's.

The home of George Vernon Ballard. a short distance over the Putnam line in the southerIy part of the town of Thompson, was destroyed by fire early Wednesday morning. The Ire was discovered by Joseph Gravel a hired man, who roon1ed on the second floof. He was awakened by smoke and saw the fire bursting through from above. finding the whole of the first floor in flames. It was with great dfmculty that Mrs. Ballard and granddaugh- ter. Pearl Moves, were gotten out of the house. Mrs. Ballard was forced to leave the house in her night cloth ing with portiere wrapped about small pictures and a little bed cloth ing were all the furniture saved, ev- erything else being destroyed The barn was saved through the efforts of the neighbors. the wind being fa- vorabie. The loss will exceed $S.0os; there is insurance of about $1,soe on the property burned.
 MT. Ballard is . prominent man of Thompson, and has been a grand ju- TOT for several years. His family consists of his wife. one daughter. Mrs Grace Moves, who is at present teach ing in Manchaug, Mass, and q grand daughter, Pearl Noyes. Mrs. Moves was not home at the time of the fire
 The fire department of Thompson which consists of the oldest hand tub in the state, the Vernon Stiles, named after the man who was proprietor o1 the old tavern in Thomps0n about 1885, did not turn out and. it is doubt ful whether it would have been of any service. The neighbors did all possible to save the furniture, but the fire had such a start that almost nothing could be done. It is under stood that the fire was caused by a defective chimney.
