Mercadal, 447 Sunset road, last Sunday night. The family was away from home at the time, with the exception of Jeff, the dog, who occupied the basement. The fire was discovered by neighbors who saw smoke curling from windows and from around the eaves of the house. The Fire department was called and forced to break down a door to gain entrance. The men heard the barking and howling of the dog and quickly res- cued him from the basement. The source of the fire remains a mys- tery but it appeared to have started in a walled-in space under a stairway and it is the opinion of the family that some oily rags were left there when the house was built, which was recently, and that spontaneous combustion resulted. The loss is not definitely known, but it is thought to have been about $2,000. Later in the week the home of John C. Nevins, 345 Elder lane, was slightly damaged by the explosion of an oil- burning heating plant in the basement. The resulting fire was quickly extin- guished by the fire department.
