Loss?No Insurance
Mr. W. M'llec Ourry, of Dials' Town
ship, had his residence and all the out
buildings on the premise totally de
stroyed by firo about l? o idook last
Saturday arternoon.The fire originated
in the fodder loft of one of the barns
and was discovered by Mr. Curry hlm
solf bofoio the blazo was larger than a
man's hat. IIo made an effort to ex
tinguish it; but In a few minutes the
building was in llamos. Meanwhile the
Uro rapidly spread, first to the three
cribs, smoke house, cow and horse
barn, thonce to tho dwelling, cotton
house and numerous shods, making a
clean sweep.
Mr. Curry thinks rats caused tho fire
as no one had beon In the barn since
noon.
Ho managed to save a portion of his
furniture and other house furnishings,
clothing, etc.
The out-buildings though and their
contents, such as corn, grain and farm
ing implements were lost. Tho teams
happened to bo out, thus escaping.
Tho loss is a heavy blow to Mr. Curry,
us it is understood he had no Insurance
on any of his property.
