Mr. R. W. Bigby’s Stable* Burned.
At 11 o’clock or Thursday night fire was
discovered in the Urge barn and stables of Mr,
R. W. Bagby, and the fire alarm was sounded.
But the flames spread so rapidly, nothing
could be saved. Three fine mules were in the
stables at the time and were burned to death.
In a few minutes from the time the fire was
discovered, the whole building was completely
enveloped in flames, and was soon burned to
the ground.
The barn was a splendid one, and was full
of provender, harness, tools, etc., all of wlvicli
were destroyed.
Mr. Bagby’s loss is about $1,000, which
falls heavily upon aim, as it is only a few
years since he was twice burned out on the
north.side of the park, in both of which in¬
stances he sustained heavy losses.
This is the third fire Mr. Bagby has been
through since 1884. He had no insurance
either time.
Mr. Bagby is a one armed confederate ve¬
teran, and is a nolle hearted, generous, public
spirited citizen, wko is always ready to help
those who need help, and he does not do it
sparingly. Let us all share with hint in his
heavy loss.
He thinks the fite was purely accidental, and
does not believe it was the work of an in:en
diary.
