A five-roomed house at Marshland, owned by Ernest Crozier, was destroyed by-fire at eleven o’clock last evening. The only occupant was Mrs M.

She was crawling out ou her hands and knees when a boy named Jackson, living in a whare nearby, noticed her plight and went to her assistance
The fire is believed to be of incendiary origin, as a suspicious fire on the previous Sunday at the same farm destroyed tbe cowshed, garage, and a haystack, the owner being absent at the. time. r: *
