Hotel Burned.
NORWALK, O., Jan. 19. - [Special] - Between 3 and 4
o'clock this morning a fire broke out in the Brerlinville house
at Berlinville in a room occupied by Vanderpool &
Young for a grocery store, and before assistance could be
obtained the fire had gained too great a headway for control.
The entire building and contents were burned. The balance
of the building was occupied by Jonah Young as a hotel
and dwelling. The family were sleeping above the room in
which the fire originated, and barely had time to make their
escape. The grocery stock was insured for $800 in the
Glens Falls insurance company and the building for $1,600 in the
Ohio Mutual of Salem. There was no insurance on the
household goods. |
