FALCONERâ€"In Durham, on Monday morning, Sept. 25th, Earl Melville, infant son of Mr. an! Mrs. Ilvm'y Falconer. About 11:30 Wednesday night. fire was discovered by town watchman Treadwell. in the old market house attached to the rear of the town hall. now used as the armory for Co. No 5 The fire started under the min stairway leading to the opera house, which is built outside the back wall of the Town Hall buiizilng. The flames damaged these stairs so they will have to be rebuilt, the market building was also badly scorched. and the volunteers’ uni~ forms considerably damaged. The shed wherein is housed the hook or d ladder truck and covered by the same roof as the armory. wa.c burned more than any other part of the place. and the truck was barely rt :1 out in time to save it from devrrc - ion. The ladders on the truck were so badly damaged that they will hate to be renewed. The firemen. how ever succeeded in promptly quench- ing the flames after the alarm Was given and a serious conflagratign was thus prevented. The loss is pretty well. if not entirely, coverrd by insurance in the Gore Mama: on the market building and in the Eco- nomical. Merchants and Gore on 'lie town hail and opera houseâ€"the «lam- age to the latter. other than the burned stairway. being the smoke interior walls. which will have to be repapered. Council adjourned to meet on Nov. 15th. Some people may try to make out that the fire was of incendiary origin but we do not think the facts rar- rant any such conclusion, nor do an believe that there is a firebng going around the town seeking Opport-anit ies to burn the place down. It is time that those who think this and other fires of late are due to inccnd iarism should quit talking or press their opinions to the extent of hav- ing their suspicions verified. This town hall fire was of course due to carelessness on the part of someone in probably throwing down a lighted match or cigar stub. but this care- lessness was able to bear fruit be- cause of the carleessness of others in allowing this part of the town hall premises to be neglected in the mat- ter of shed doors being off and the place being allowed to become noth- ing better than a public closet and urinal {or nignt use particularly. Carelessness, more than incendiarism we believe is the cause of other fire- heroâ€"not including the one in Noon an’s Storehouse which was quite evidently a case of COUXbUfithU.'”.“.zT.
