Bowmanville Tver: Kelly, Bowmanville, representative, Telephone 300 Ais TWO BARNS BURNED IN DARLINGTON TP. AT LOSS OF $4,000 On Farm of James Pierce-- Contained No Crops-- Partial Insurance HAYSTACK BURNED Firebug Thought To Be At Work in Bowmanville Newcastle District (Ry Staff Reporter) # Bowmanville, Sept, 13.--Two harns together valued at $4,000 Were totally destroyed by fire Sun- (day night on the farm of James Pierce in an isolated section of Darlington Township, As these barns held no crops, the damage was not as considerable as was first reported, Partial 'insurance was carried it is understood. Saturday night a large haystack on the farm of Fred Koster, just north of Bowmanville was desroy- ed. The stack was some distance from the house, Strong suspicion that a fire-bug is- at work in the Newcastle-Bow- manville district is held by farmer: in the district following-:the past week's epidemic of fires, the aggre- rate loss from whieh totals close to 320,000, The first of these was the tire which destroyed a barn on Wil- J'am Lake's farm south and cast of. Newcastle a week ago this past {"unday night, This barn, isolated ome distance from the farm house, in a field of oats, was a valuable, it old struenre, being built in 1837. Sunday night a barn on the farm of Duncan Galbraith near Newcastle was destroyed, the loss being fully $10,000. This barn was also some distance from the farm house. While some are inclined to blame the fires on tramps or hikers using them overnight, prominent citigzeas here believe that the apparent similarity between all the fires in- dicates the work of someone afflict- ed with a mania for conflagrations. While no official move has been made to bring the matter to the Ontario fire marshal's attention, the gravity of the situation may bring action leading towards official in- vestigation this week.
