este descuido sc inicio Ia conflagra-
cion cue cost6 muy cerca de siete
mil doares Y que dej6 d varias IA
m:lias en- la miseria mas completa.
Cuando Ia vela lego a encendei
la tela de que hablo, varios vecinos
que notaron las ~pequehas llan;as Gue
salian de Ia h~abitacion de Ia. sonora
afecta a los santos, acudicron pre-
surosamentc Y arrojaron Sobre elias

tendicron echar mas liquido elemen-
to, pcro por mas que buscaron en- las
llaves de las casas vecinas no 10 en-
