Fire Destroys Barn
Suspect is Held

Fire at 3 o'clock Sunday morning
destroyed the barn on the farm
owned by Mrs. Thomas White of
Mechanicsville. Conn.,, on the Show
hogan road to Norridgewock, in the
town of Norridgewock. There was
every indication that the fire was of
iHcendiary origin. Sheriff Mooers
office was called with the result that
at an early hour William Wright
Commorant of Skowhegan was ap-
pretended near Norridgewock VII
iage by Deputy sheriff Charles Mil
Ter. having been directed by Sheriff
Mooers to act quickly. Wright was
recognized as an old offender hav-
ing recently served a term in the
county jail for larceny.
When Wright's movements on
Saturday night were checked UP 1t
was found that he had left his room
ing place sometime during the night.
His story was inconsistent insofar
as he claimed not to have seen the
fire while walking past it. 1t was
also noticed that his clothes were
wet which indicated that he had
been in the woods as the road was
perfectly dry. Sheriff Mooers be-
iieves that he has evidence to con-
vict Wright of this offense. He will
be given a hearing today in the
Municipal court.
The SkOwhegan Fire company re-
sponded to the call but the fire was
so far advanced that they turned
their attention to the other build
ings which were saved.
