DARING ATTEMPT AT INCENDIARISM.
[PER PRESS. ASSOCIATION.]
CHRISTCHURCH, This day,
A daring attempt at incendiarism was discovered on Saturday morning. Some person or persons unknown deliberately set fire in two places to the premises at the back of Mr Church’s drapery establishment in Cashel street, and occupied by Mr Walters, ironmonger. One of the back windows had been opened and the culprit had by that means effected an entrance and lighted the place in two separate positions. Fortunately the fire burnt itself out. The attempt was discovered shortly after business had been resumed on Saturday morning.
