Some of the furniture was saved by hard work, but other- wise the blaze wrought complete de- struction. The farmhouse the owner's family, and was tenanted by John Snavely, and Mrs. Snavely and an in- fant child were in the house when the former discovered the fire, Mrs. Snavely is at a loss as to the origin of the blaze, but believes it started on the second floor or in the attic. Mrs. Snavely immediately sounded the alarm, and in a short time the entire village had turned out and lent the helping hand in saving what they could. A bucket brigade was formed, and a considerable portion of the furniture was saved from the build- ing, but nothing could be done against the high wind that prevailed, and which for a time looked as if it might cause a more serious con- flagration. Situated in close prox- imity to the farmhouse was a summer house, and this was saved only from the fact that the wind was coming from the ‘opposite direction. The fire broke out at 2.30 o'clock, and burned for several hours. The loss on the property is not known, Mr. Snavely carried insurance on the dwelling. son, re ee.
