The premises had been rented for some time by Thomas Kelly, who stabled his cows in it. Two or three mien also roomed in the portion that had been used as an office in former days. It is probable that the fire stared from the stove. The building was worth two or three hundred dol- lars, It was one of the oldest, build- ings in Grand Rapids and its destruc- tion removes an old land mark. The lots are owned by C.
