The homo of Mr. John W. Everett in Fan-view, near the compress \y«» totally destroyed by Are Friday. The house won bnrwud to the ground, und much of the furniture with it. Fortunately Mr Everett was insured to about three fourths the value of his loss, as lie car ried $750 on hU house and #00 on iii* furu tare. Mr. Everett’s home was a neat one story cottage- ii»*ar tho Atlautic Compress Oompatoy*# plant in Fair view. About half paMttc.-u o’clock Friday morning, a Are was started in the kitchen stove to prepare dinner. Mrs. Everett had gone to a neighbor's to carry some soup to a sick child. When she started back home, she saw smoke pouring from tjit* doors and windows. An alarm was immediately tamed in und the depart ment made a quick ran to the scene. The flro had evidently started in tin 1 wood box, by coals falling from the stove. It had apparently, gained little headway and was readily extinguished. The tiremuu cut u hole in the roof and made what they declare was u most, iirct'ul examination, but lolled to And any evidence of lurking 'flames. They mfc the holigo supposing that the trouble was aii over. The Are could uot iihvo been put com pletely out, as nlxmt au hour later it broke oat again fTOW the roof. This time tho lOitiru bock of tho house was a mass of dames before th# department reached there. They quickly made their water connection, and might have saved tho house but for tho fact two lengths of hoso proved untrustworthy and sprung leaks and two couplings bond. The damage was quickly repair ed but before any water could ls> turned ou, the house was gone beyond redump tion. Seeing that it could not bo saved the department turned their attention to tiie compress nearby which was iu imminent danger of couilagration. They worked hard and kept tho plank from catching on flro. During tho first alarm a portion farnitaro had bocu removed from the back to the front of the house, and this was saved, though most of the contents wore lost. Mr. Everett hod a neat, well furnished home, aud that sn unfortu nate chain of circumstances caused to bo destroyed is regretted by his many friends. The sad news of the death of W. C Amason, in Moultrie, reached the city Friday.
