    the burning was due to a lighted cigarette, which had been thrown carelessly on the ground. The sky seemed on fire, as the sheets of flame had lightened the atmosphere which had rose from the burning clock. Great struggles were made to extinguish the fire, which was of no use. In the morning everything was burned to the ground, and only smoke and blackened ruins remained.
