    In the Lower Main Street next door to us there was a very severe fire. One man lost his life.
    The residence belonged to Mr. P. Mulhern. The fire broke out in the night time. This man was sleeping in the residence when the fire broke out.
    He got outside the house safe but he know where the money was kept and he went in side to try to get the money but he got trapped in the fire and was burned. He died shortlyafterwards.
