Both House and Contents
Monday afternoon both house
contents of O W Dewey of EaBt
Cook were destroyed by fire the
and
Mc
fire
doubtless originating in a defective flue
Mrs Dewey had been washing and n
hot fire had been burning That the
house was afire was not noticed until
the flames had secured a strong head
way and as that part of the city is
without fire protection practically
nothing could be done to stay the pro
gress of the fire und as the flames had
gained much headway before being
noticed practically nothing could be
removed from the burning house One
of the children was taken out with some
difficulty The loss on house is placed
at 81000 with insurance of 450 The
household goods loss will reach near
that sum with insurance of 8500 Mr
Dewey and wife have keen sympathy
in their heavy loss
