Barn And Live Stock Mon- ' One of the most. serious flres some years, occurred on the farm ef Mr. Tholnas Bolton, 10th concession of McKillop, early Monday morning, when his large bank 'barn was com- pletely destroyed. ' The origin of the fire is unknown and was discovered when the family was awakened about two o'clock by the reflection of the flames shining through the windows of the house. By that time, however, the fire had gained such headway that nothing possibly could be done to save the barn as well as much of the contents. Four horses were saved, but all the coetents of the barn were destroyed, including 22 head of cattle, 10 pigs, all the few', some implements and 1,000 bushels of grain.
