Glenavy.

A serious outbreak of fire occurred on Saturday evening last at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Morrison, Aughnadarragh, Glenavy. Mrs. Morrison and her young son Charles, were in the kitchen about 10 o'clock when they noticed a crackling noise and smoke coming from a room above the kitchen. By this time the fire had got a firm hold.

Crumlin N.F.S. were summoned, and with the assistance of the Lisburn Brigade, prevented the fire spreading to the adjoining outhouses. The house, a two storey slated building, was completely gutted, and only a few articles of furniture were saved.

Valuable assistance was rendered by a number of civilians, and Sergt. John Graham, and Constable L. Farrelly, R.U.C. Crumlin. Unfortunately for Mr. and Mrs. Morrison the building was not covered by insurance.
