At that time the fire was confined to a small patch on the roof. The two aroused the Marsh family who in turn sent in an alarm to the Round Tlake and Gragyslake fire departments. Large Structure on Everett Marsh Farm is Destroyed Saturday Night. All efforts to save the barn were abandoned early and the _ firemen and others directed their work to-- ward saving the other buildings. Loss In Contents Heavy. The barn which contained 60 tons of hay and all the farm mackhisery and implements was burned to the ground. . The flames spread quickly and the reflection of the fire against the sky which could be seen for 'dles attracted many to the scene. The fire represents a heavy lo«s to the owner. Insurance on the hbarn totalled but ~1,000, while there was $500 in insurance on the hay.
