House burns |
- House Burnt
About half-past two o'clock, on Friday morning, 3rd inst., about an hour later than fires take place in Ottawa, the fire alarm bells pealed out their dreaded notes, awakening the citizens, who hurriedly rushed for the theatre of the fire, which was seen to be in New England. The fire company had their engine out promptly and were soon at the fire, which was found to be confined to a frame building occupied and owned by a man named Miller and his family. When the fire company arrived the building was wholly engulphed in flames, and as no water could be obtained they could put forth no efforts to save the building. The fire is believed to have been caused by the usual means, namely, by hot ashes left in the kitchen. When discovered by the inmates they had just sufficient time to escape with their lives. All household effects were destroyed, and as there was no insurance on the building the loss will be a heavy one to the owner.

Almonte -
Between 2 and 3:00 on Friday morning last the Almonte fire bell rang out loud and clear, thus giving warning that a fire was in progress. The scene of the fire was situated in "New England". The fire company turned out with their engine but before they could reach the scene the house which was on fire was well night consumed. The house belonged to Mr. Charles Miller, an employee of the factories. From what we can learn the fire was caused by hot ashes which had been placed in an outhouse attached to the building. The house with its contents was entirely consumed and the inmates were not aware of the disaster that had befallen them until some of the burning timbers began falling about their ears. There was no insurance.
