Fire which was discovered short- ly after 10 o'clock last night caused considerable damage to a new barn owned by Mr. Harold Hynes, Montague. Members of the family discovered flames starting from thereof.

The roof was burned off and considerable damage done to the interior before the flames were ex- tinguished by the Montague Fire Department.

Rays of sunlight. converged by a flaw in the window glass. are believ- ed to have started a $2.000 blaze in a two-family wooden tenement on the comer of Spring Street and Brighton Avenue Saturday after- noon.

The fire was discovered when a young daughter oi Mr. Hooper Es- sery. one of the occupants. went to pick up a. cushion leaning against a porch window. The cushion burst into flames and a startled girl dropped it. A rubber raincoat mzught fire and blazed up, setting lire to the walls and ceiling of the porch. The blaze quickly spread to the main building. The flames had taken strong hold when the firemen ar- rived and it was only after a stuw born fight that they were extin- guished. . All the furniture and contents of Esserys side of the house were des- troyed and considerable damage by smoke and ivater was caused in the other side, occupied by Mr. George Francis and his family.
