Concession 8. Egremont, suffered the loss of his barn and contents with the excep- tion of the live stock which was saved. 0n the night. of the tire, Mr. Reeves had gone out to his barn with the lantern to feed up his stock. A hayloader stou on the threshing floor, and a hen sat on tho hayloai‘ier. He hung his lantern on the side of the hayloader. and fearing lest the hen was. too close to it, he picked her up and threw her some ten feet away and then ascend- ed into the mow. While Mr. llz-ews was throwing down hay, the. hen de- cided-to resume her old perch. and flew directly towards the lantern. knocking it. down. thereby over- turning and exploding it, setting tire to the hay. The. building and con- tents are partly covered by insur- ance. Considerable risk of life at- tended the. releasing of a large ball. The animal was loose in a box stall and bellowed with rage and fear, refusing to leave his stall, never be- fore having been taken out except when led. When finally turned out, the animal ran wild through the fields. bellowing continuouslv. Mr. Reeves has been the Township as- sessor for Egremont for the past 37 ’years and is thoroughly well-known land respected in his township. Pretty soon it. will be. cheaper for father to take a course at the bar- ber school. HEN BURNS BARN - - BAKING HINTS PAGE O.
