buildings and the seasons crop after a thorough investigation by tho fire marshal in his report on the blaze at robertsons found tho cause to be due to spontaneous combustion the loss was 9000 with insurance of 5000 and an adjustment by the company of 3460 it seems apparent that the fire started in the north mow which con tained some old clover hay in the bottom about a foot deep and on top of this there was eleven feet of lucerne clover and timothy about 13 tons this new hay had been cut about the middle of july cut one day raked up the second after two teddings and placed in cock for three or four days before placed in the mow and salted 150 lbs to 35 tons three weeks later this hay was covered with grain the mow being filled up to the roof this grain was threshed off the hay on aug 26th just fivo days before the fire no thieves or tramps had bother ed the robertson premises and no enemies suspected but they thought that some person had entered the barn and fired it in some way imrs forbes felt sure that tho mysterious stranger with a parasol had figured in tho fire but this man proved to bo c dadson who was on his way from newmarket to orillia to seek work investigation showed that he was a hard working honest man well spoken of by those who knew him tho conclusion reached was that spontaneous combustion in the hay mow caused tho fire mixture of grasses in tho hay its hasty hand lings curing and light salting left every room for self ignition when weight of grain was taken off faced with shortage of grain and rising prices together with lower hog prices w
