joods hut their loss is more than

was saved from the store. The
tiro had made too much headway
when discovered for it to ho entered.
Mr (Walters' furniture'
was saved from the dwelling hut j
l?adly damaged. He carried no
insurance on it. The store room
and dwelling ?*f .Mrs Manes, on .

damaged l?:it is covered by insur

1 ho tiro when discovered had
burnt through the top of the'
store room about its middle nn<l
the whole interior seemed ablaze.
Its origin was most likely incen 1

first robbed and then set a tire, j
A bout 2 o'clock of the previous
night one of the Messrs Walters
heard a noise at one of the buek
