The West Union depot was de-
stroyed by fire yesterday afternoon
about us O'Clock. 1t is supposed
that sparks from the train that left
Walhalla at 6 o'clock fell on bales
OF cotton on the platform and set
fire to the building. About 80 bales
Of cotton were destroyed, these being
on the platform ready for shipment
on order of G. w. Gignilliat C Son,
of Seneca. They were being shipped
by Mrs. Kate O. VanDiviere, and we
are informed that she had already
received receipts for the cotton; thus
having been relieved by the railway
company Of loss by reason Of the fire
From the cotton the fire spread rap
idly to the depot building, which was
soon totally destroyed, not, however
until all freight had been removed
and the railway property taken from
the building. The loss on the cotton
will amount to about $4,000. The
railway business will be transacted
from some temporary place of busi-
ness until arrangements for erection
of a new depot can be made.
