at noon and was due to chimney fire
at the residence Of William Folsom, 10

The second call came at ! o'clock and
was due to almost blaze at the house
Of Sarah Clary on the North Belfast
road. The fire apparently caught around
where the funnel went into the chimney
and burned through into the kitchen. the
hall and upstairs. Two chemicals were
used and it was necessary to tear away
some Of the wall and use the garden
hose. The damage was not heavy. The
third call came at $50 in the evening and
was due to chimney fire at 30 Mill
street in a house owned by William Cole
and occupied by one Trepanier. Two
chemicals were used.
