'util.-ran,d ',t 11,1:m11 P,mt (Mee, 27ss-tf Serious Fire, -- On 'Tuesday night legit pur villagers were startled by the alarm of "fire" and the ringing of bells and the sounds of the siren whistle and it was Aneln discovered that the large livery premises of Mr. T. Murdock were in flames. The fire was first discovered corning from the part of the premises tented to Mr, George Brock for a blacksmith shop and quickly- spread to the adjoining shop of Mr. Colin Hudson, who car- ries on sangg�carriages, implements, etc., and tlhn leaped to the livery rant of Mr:tMurdock'.s premises, As those buildings, all owned by Mr. Murdock, cover nearly if not quite one' -half block on Wellington street opposite the railway station, and .are till large frame. structures, it can readily be imagined the scat of flame; caused and it looked at one tire, as if it would be utterly impossible to cope with the flumes or save the adjoin- ing buildings and particularly so Mr Murdoc•k's large brick two-story dwelling. liut our hand engine bri- gade did nehle work backed by our citizens generally, who rushed with rails of water and did splendid ser- vice in protecting the roofs of the nearest buildings and it almost seem- ed a mirne'e„that the fine dwelling of Mr, Murdock was saved, as it almost adjoined the large livery barns, only separated by a few feet, and too much credit cannot be given to Mr. Whitesides, Mtr, Bates, Mr. George Brock, Mr. Pickett, Mr. A. McEwen, Dave Cornett and others for the heroic struggle they made against the flames which almost engulped thein in their brave fight. Mr. Owen Geiger also worked hard and to good advantage. Tile fire was first seen about half -past ten o'clock and about 12 o'clock the fire was in complete control and much credit is also due to Mr. Edgar McQueen and Mr, W. Vanhom for the manner in which they rushed tanks of water to the scene. The fire was so intense and so large that the reflection was seen for many utiles and' crowds rushed to the village by auto from the whole country side and neighboring towns and villages end the crowd resembled that of a large'fair. Fortunately Mr. Murdock with -the help of the crowd assembled, gdt all his horses out. and the greater part of his rigs but still lost a good deal in the way of his large out2i), but his loss will be partly covered by insurance. In the ease of Mr, C,olins, 3: Hudson and Mr, Geo, Brock, who rented from Mr. Mur- dock, we regret to state that they had no insurance, as the rate was very high on such class of property and very much sympathy is felt for them as their loss will be quite large. Had the wind, heed very high and from a different direction front which it was. it is hard to say where the fire would have been checked and our villagers as a whole have much r ea9itn to feel thankful that*the fire did not' spread.
