Friday George E. Stiles, one owners of the wooden building which Thursday morningg fire was supposed to have started, had a con- tractor visit the site and part of the east-wall of the building was pulled down. This was done as the wall was in such a position that it might fall at any time and possibly injure some- one. "The men removed part of the front of the bullding which was lean- Ing toward the street endansering the lives of the people that paszsl by the ruins. Mr. Stiles stated th.t he did not know whether the building would be rebuilt or not. Principal Damage From Water. Henry ‘Fryer, whose rooms were in the northwest carner of fhe buildihg on the second floor, did mot, suffer much from the fire itself but imost of his fixtures and goods were well soak- ed with water. He had men at the ruins Thursday afternoon and Friday getting out all of his belongings and removing them to another room he has rented for carrying on his busi- ness. How Trust Company Fared. The Willimantic Trust ' company was also located ig the northwest part of the building orthe main flgor and as a result did not suffer much from the blgze. All of the fixtures were pretty iwell water-soaked and . smoked up, but they were removed to, the space made for them. in the store of George Giffprd on Church._ street.

The chief also made ap investigation s to the reason why the alarm boxes did not work properly. on -the night of the fire. He came to the conclu- sion that two al were rung in at the same time this caused the bell to ring -any- number and put.one of the boxes out.of commission.. The alarm that awoke-the chief was rung in_from box. 43, which was.the.one from which the recall was sounded. This seemed to . be in good. Working order as it was. tested out Friday.and found to be all right. -The Other box on Bank street that was also used to send in the alarm was found to be burned out. 1t is not known yet just how much of the Jordan' block can. be saved, Should it be built up again but it is thought that the front wall, at least, can be saved as this seems to be in £ood condition nearly to the top.
