BRIGHTSVILLE NEWS
Two Stores Burned ?ved Loss is
Heavy Other Matters.
Brightsville, May I I- Tho stores
of .1 \V Odom and \Y IO Poole
wore burnell on last Thursday
morning about o'clock, the loss
is severe. The houses were owned
by Mr K \Y Goodwin, loss about
81 100.00. The lire is unknown
how it was started. Mr .1 \Y
Odom was in Robeson county at
the time of the lire and Mr Poole
was out at his fathers to spend tho
night. Tho loss falls heavy oh
these young mon. Mr Odom had
some insurance but? do aol know
whether it is good ol' not. Mr
Peele bad some insurance, but af
tho lull amount of their policies
are paid they will lose $1000 each.
Mr Odom's safe was not locked
and and ho lost all his books and
accounts with $150 worth of school
books, ^the property ol' tho public
schools, also he had in his safe tho
vere on him but on others also.
Mr ( So?dwin had money in his
safe that Mr ( Mom had collected
for him on his ginnery account to
tho amount of about $05.00. Pub
lie opinion is that it was sol on
lie by some one w ho knew that Mr
Odom and Mr Peile were not at
home. Il was bard work to save
the mill house as it cati gilt oh the
roof and had to bo fought by pour
ing wafer on the roof by knock
?hg oil thc shingles from the in
side.
It looks like that the recent losses
to Mr Goodwin come on matty
sides. Only a few days ago his
mill dam was washed.out, then it
severe lire in his line timber, and
now comos the loss of two stores
without any insurance at all. Tho
en ti ra community sympathize with
them in their loss.
Married on April <Sth by Mag
istrate J McB Hurley Mr Enoch

Good stands of cotton, health of
