Largest single loos was the $53,000 blaze at Horton’! Cannery Iwhile damage caused at Borden i School amounted to $24,000.

In Charlottetown proper loss ,amounted to $10,000 while Sum- i merside Prince County capital had damage amounting to $10,000.

Fires in dwellings, numbering 118 led to a $40,000 loss.

Farm properties were next in line with 107 fires occurring with damages amounting to the big to- tal of $128,000.

There was one lire of incendiary origin while investigations were carried out in a number of other CFISES.
