at 1.30 Saturday morning. The fire |
started in the upper part OF the
house, and burned out the roof. 1t |
was confined to the main house, the |
ell and stable not being damaged. |
The fire probably originated from a
chimney. Mark Sprague, block Sig 1
nal operator on the Maine Central |
railroad, had rented the house, and |
authorization of his occupancy, hre
had been kept in the house by MISS
Mckenzie for several days. She was

house was in flames when the 1lre
was discovered. The buildings were
insured.
