A northeast wind carried the sparks away front .the Inn and carried sparks and bits ; : of charred material considerable 'distances, The barn centained,`;a small qua n tity of old hay and straw, some im- plements and tools and one' car be- longing to one of the boys of the family. The best ear had not .been put in that night. A number of chick- ens also perished. It" was a 'spec- tacular fire and those' living in the vicinity had scene anicious moments until the firemen succeeded in get- ting it under control. One of the regretted and regret- table consequences of the fire was the fact that Mr. It kley's flr'ver garden was trampled out of existence almost by the firefighters and the vbltime of water poured on.
