Fire at Unity
The depot at Unity was struck by lightning on Wednesday night of last week and destroyed by fire. The fore occurred about nine o'clock. A large quantity of freight including a reaper, mower and several buggies were destroyed. There ids no sympathy expressed for the company as the depot has been a disgrace to the road ever since its erection. It was so loosely put together that it offered very little protection in the winter time.
