Burgess, ILL.,, April 1.-THE ten
ant house owned by Grant A. Brown
and occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. Quin-
land, one and a half miles west and
one-fourth mile south Of Burgess,
burned to the ground Sunday. The
fire started in the attic over the
kitchen and very probably orig
mated from defective flue. How
ever, the blaze was discovered in
good time and quick work was
made in spreading the alarm. bu,
owing to the fact that the fire was
in under the roof and that only a
small amount of water could be
got to the blaze. it was impossible
to save the dwelling.
Mr.. and Mrs. Quinland's loss will
be small, as everything was carried
from the house long before the
blaze had gained any Roadway
Even all the fruit and vegetables
were carried fom the basement
Mr.. Brown carried insurance or
the house, and he will probably re
build this summer. Credit should
be given for the quick spreading O.
