FORMER LORING COTTAGE
 AT WATCH HILL BURNED
Special to The Bulletin. )

Westerly, May 6.-The dwelling on the Westerly road at Watch Hill owned and occupied by Contractor Louis Leone was destroyed by fire just after midnight Wednesday, together with its contents Mir. and Mrs Leone had not been in the house for several days, and as there was no fire in furnace or range, there is a strong suspicion that the fire was of in- cendiary origin. The men on duty in the lookout at the coast guard station declare that the house was mass of flame all most inStantaneously. There was no small blaze discernible and when the fire was first seen practically the whole build ing was ablaze. Investigation indicated that the fire was started in the center of the kitchen floor and must have spread rapidly, presumably aided by kerosene or some other inf1ammable fluid. The frame of the building is standing. but the roof is burned and the interior consumed.
 The few residents at the hill were aroused and, aided by the coast guard men, the fire was fought determinedly and a successful effort made in saving the nearby buildings. The triple-combi- nation fire apparatus arrived in quick time and two streams of water were in l play, but the headWay of the fire was SC ! advanced when first discovered that il
 was impossible to save the Leone resi- denCe.
 1 Chief Engineer Walter Nash of the Watch Hill fire department, now resi- dent of Westerly, was summoned by tele.
 phone. He in turn notified Chief Eggel of the Westerly department and botr
 chiefs were rushed 10 the hill on the fire I truck of the Rhode Island Ones. The firt 1 fighters did we'll in confining the blaze tc
 the house in which it originated, espe
 cia:ly as this stood close to and in line w:th other wooden buildings. Chief Egg ger while at work in the interior of tn, burning structure fell between some foo
 beams and injured his left side, bu caught a beam and saved himself iron falling to the floor below.
 The Leone house was formerly owne, by George Loring of Norwich and is in sured.
