Ashburn – The barn on the Fisher farm, a short distance from here, has been burned. Mr. Jas. Stork, the tenant, lost a good portion of this year’s crop, as well as some implements and three fat hogs. There is an insurance of $500 on the barn and $500 on the contents. It is thought that a spark from some careless smoker’s pipe was the cause of the trouble.
