Reynold's residence, on River street, was burned to the ground |about 1 o'clock yesterday morning { Although Mr. Reynolds was sleep ing in the house, less than thirty | feet away, he did not awaken until the fire bell rang and the building | was wrapped in flimes, so that he | got nothing out of it. He had just cleaned house and removed his | parlor stove, sewing machine, bis cycle and other furniture into the building, and they were all burned. ! The fire was first discovered by fishermen on the river, who raised the alarm, and brought No. 1 hose company to the rescue. They were obliged to lay a long line of hose : Main and Chestnut streets, and one length of hose burst as soon as the pressure was put upon it, so there was some delay in getting a stream on the blaze. The building was totally destroyed and about f125 worth of furniture, The building was insured for $90 and there was also an insurance on the goods. There had been no fire in the building and the cause of the fire is unknown. Mrs. J. H. Brown, 103 Ferry street, has a fine line of santples of tailor made dress and suit materials which she would like to show the ladies of Athens and vicinity, from the Syracuse Garment Co.
