Article Description: Colored Farmer Loses Barn and Mules By Fire

Article Text:

Thomas Corry, one of the most progressive colored farmers in this section, had the misfortune to lose his barn by fire last week. His wife saw the light about 3:30 a.m. and gave the alarm. When he got out to the barn he got out of the stable a fine mare, and his buggy and carriage, but lost three finemules, all of his wheat crop, which had not been threshed, and nearly all hisfarming implements and tools. His loss is not less than $1,500 with only $100 insurance. There is no known cause for the fire.
