Montgomery County HAS
3 fires Within "a Hours.

Thursday, Montgomery county
was visited by three fires within
twenty-four hours, entailing a loss
of about $4,000. The first was the
barn on the farm of George w.
Anderson, on the Levee pike,
which was completely destroyed
on Wednesday night, with three
mules, one horse, lot of corn, ETC.,
entailing loss of about 81 200.
with an insurance on the barn of
$3.50. On the same night on the
Maysville pike, fire broke out in
the residence on the farm of
Charles d. Dale, occupied by a
Tenant. and was completely de-
stroyed together with nearly all
the household goods. The loss is
given at about 50, 200, with an
insurance on the residence of
81, 900. This fire, it is believed,
started from fire which had been
built by the occupants, who went
off and left the place, and it is
presumed that part of it fell out
on the floor, causing the destruc-
ton of the house. Thursday the
frame residence on the farm of
Mrs. A. w. Mcclure, on tn e
Grassy Lick pike, burned to the
ground, supposedly from defect
i've fue. The insurance on the
place had been cancelled only a
few days ago. The loss on the
house is about So, 200. The house
was occupied by Walter Carr, who
lost over half his household goods,
with no insurance.
