Fire at Alcock House near Athy in Ireland sparks alarms

A nighttime fire near Mr Richard Alcock’s house at Rom Funt’s Town Athy County Kil dare rages after villains climb a turf stack and ignite a blaze. A maid warns the family as flames spread. Two feather beds are saved. two hogsheads of water used to brew next day. The same man’s house burned twice before. a large stack of peace in his field burned last August. In London Coventry reports mobbing and electoral intrigue as Parliament prorogues to January 21. News of ships, deaths, marriages, and official appointments fill the column with local and court notices.
