covered that nothing could be saved. Mr.,
Lavery's loss is about 1000. The family
lost much clothing, which was hanging
in the kitchen and ad joining bedrooms.

restaurant building, but during the win

Lavery is reported as much discouraged
and does not think he win be in posi-
| ton to continue the business, as his in
surance was but $1,000.
