within an ace of losing his car by fire on saturday evening the harvey car was parked in front of the family residence at brougham when a passing motor ist noticed smoke inside the ve hicle he summoned mrs harvey who was nearby and the blaze a- mong some papers on the rear seat was extinguished it seems that mr harvey had just returned with the car a short time previous and recalled flick ing the ashes from a cigarette the assumption is that some of these ashes blew in the rear window and caught on some papers there the fortunate thing was that mr harvey didnt drive his car in to the garage and close the doors as was his usual custom had he done so and the flames eaten any closer to the gas tank a conflagra tion of considerable proportions might have resulted as it was damage
