The ! Fire, We publish, below the
report of the burning of Mri Canadity's
residence, clipped from the Wilming
ton Star, which is correct, except that
Mr. C. finds that his loss in furniture,
books, &c, is upwardsjof $2,600.-; J
."Tho tine residence of ex-Mayor W
P. Canaday, situated on the corner of
Market and SeTenteenlh streets, was
destroyed by fire on Wednesday morn
ingl Mr. Canaday was at hia omct in
the Cnstom House at . the time. rAt
about lO o'clcckMrs, Canaday repaired
to the kitchen, to see about the prepar
ation of dinner, and rduriag- her ab
sence Hiss Bell, her sister, who was up
stairs, detected . the odor of something
burning, and hurrying down stairs,
called Mrs. Canaday and informed her
of the fact. Mrs. C. immediately rushed
into the house, when she discovered
considerable smoke ia the sitting rood
and tbe parlor beytmd fuU of ltT tlSt
called a colored boy and sent him alter
Mr. Canaday, ".. In the meaatime every
eflbrt waa made by those presentnear
ly all females to extinguish the flames
-and -with proper facilities and tht re
quisite assistance this couldTiave been
done. ,As it was. they were kepi prefc
ty well uuder control forsome consider
ble time, an evidence of which is found
tu the fact that tbe colored boy ran all
.the way to the Custom House and de
livered his startling message, white Mr.
Canaday ran all the way home, and was
there iu time to save a small portion of
his furniture; He thought at first, that
his wife was unnecessarily alarmed, but
when he got as far as Fourth street he
saw the snioke from his burning house
aud gayc the alarm. ;
. The residence auu Kitchen were en
tirely destroyed, with most of tbe far
uiiturc, a valuable library, which Mr.
0. has been twelve years ia accumula
ting, aud which ho cannot .replace to
gether with the beautiful grove of trees,
some of them the finest iu tholcily,
which added so much to-: the attrac
tiveness and value of lbe placed j Mr.
Canaday 'has ; been constantly adding
iajprovcmeiits- tohis premises ever since
he purchased them, and only on Mon
day he had his ' water tanks lined! and
was getting the pipes ready for the ne
cessary connections with his bath house,
wash room, etc. . , j .
"Mr. Canaday estimates the monied
value of furniture and books lost at
f 2,000, -which was about covered by in
surance, in a company represented! by
Mr. Norwood Giles." ; .. '
''The house, kitchen, fence, etc he
ays eould not be replaced for less than
fS,300. lie had insurance upon tb'cse,
in a company represented by Messrs.
Atkinson & Manning, to the amount of
2,S00. The loss of tbe trees of ciirse
Cannot be replaced.'' .
' The fire ongvnateu somewhere: iov
the ceiling between the parlocjtnd Ssit;
tng room, or iu the china' closet be
tween ha two rooms, and in immediate
proximity to the oliimWr. nod is be
lieved to liare been caused by a (law in
the latter, though Mrs. Canaday thinks
i! must have been the work oi an jin
ceuclary." y j j . .
"The fire department hurried to the
scettc, but could get no water. The
Hook and Ladder Company did what
they could, which was necessarily little
under tbe circumstances." . .
I "The wind was blowing almost a bar
ricaae at the tim, - and the seething
flamies fiDnr.l h uner and, tbither by tht
itroij i.wiud, picsenUd a g&ad aa well
aui ttrritic siaht." . .; . ;
Mr. Canaday a faiuily.includiogalrs.
Uvlli his wife's mother, who is here ta
viait and wck abed, wero removed! to
the jhouRe cf Dr. Carr, near by, and
subsequently f the Parcel! Uoust,
where they are aow ttoppiag. Ut la
lorut u that be will rebaibi at an
