Tues- day night destroyed three buildings opposite the station. The citizens were aroused` about eleven p.m, by the sound of the fire alarm when it was learned that fire had started near the forge in Mr. Brock's"black- smith shop and rapidly spread thru Hudson's implement shop and. into Murdock's livery barn.' For a spell it looked as though the whole sec- tion would be Iicked up but by heroic effort on the part of the fire brigade and citizens the fire was confined, to the :three buildings. Mr. Murdock's fine residence adjoining the livery barn was saved by stren- uous work of the citizens. It seemed many times that it would become a pery to the Hames. The contents of the livery were :all saved, but the implement shop and the blacksmith( chop were all consumed. The loss is only partly covered by insurance. Many cars from Exeter, Crediton and Zurich were on the scene. ARMSTRONG-WILLIAMS. A pretty wedidng was solemnized at 11 Cove Rd., London, at the home ;,of Mr. and Mrs.: John.
