six years has been cashier of the

Mr. J Fl Nixon; of huntsville,
was in town Monday. He was a
heavy sufferer from the recent fire
in Burnsville. He had no insur-
ance on his stock of goods though
he wasin the habit of carrying in
surance and intended to renew
soon. He is of the opinion that
the fire was undoubtedly of inccn-
diary origin.
