SCHOOL DESTROYED
INCENDIARISM SUSPECTED Press Association BLENHEIM, To-day. St. 'Mary’s Boys’ School, a substantial wooden structure in Blenheim, was destroyed by fire last night under circumstances pointing to incendiarism. The building was previously ablaze on June 17, when the outbreak was discovered in time to be easily suppressed. The insurances are only £ 600 on the building and £IOO on the furnishings, in the Phoenix office. It will probably cost £3,000 to replace the school.
