Destructive fire engulfs Thompson Nailor stable scene
A large fire Sunday morning consumed the stable and coach-house of Mr Thompson Nailor at Pennsylvania Avenue and 14th Street in Washington, destroying carriages and thirty horses. Water shortages hampered the fire department’s efforts amid a disgraceful Harrisburg incident targeting Mr Valentine Best, new Speaker of the Pennsylvania House. Father Matthew arrived in Charleston, and Georgetown Market reports weak flour demand with Shenandoah cotton at 85 and Ordinary at 481.
