urnmg shingles were carried a
long distance' and about 2.30, a half
hour after the fire started, Thomas
Taylor's barn, across the road ,about
130 rods away, burst into flames and
it also was burned to the ground
Neighbors were quickly on thci job
but it was impossible to save either

of the barns, but great "credit must
be given to the men who fought so
braver. in the. tern lc heat and say-
Y
ed the Coultes home. The intense
heat that was endured by the. fire-
fighters was so great that even their
wet clothes would dry in a moment

with $5000 available insurance. Mr.

Coultes is extremtlgrateful to all
who helpedrduring the fire and were
the means of saving the house.
Mr. Taylor's loss will be heavy al-
so, as. he had some o£ last year's
grain stored iri his barn and also
this years crop off .200 acres. The
loss will be partially covered by in-

Mr. Coultes will rebuild a part of
the barn and possibly complete the
