DISTASTROUS FIRE IN WAINFLEET
[Welland Tribune, 31 July 1891]
During the heavy thunder storm yesterday morning Abraham Bradley’s barn and sheds, with contents , were fired by lightning and burned. Mr. Bradley’s loss is very heavy. The barn was a good one, 40×54 feet, and had been lately repaired at considerable expense. In the barn were a valuable team of horses, a binder and other implements, and a great lot of hay, wheat and other grains. We could not learn whether there was any insurance or not…In March last Mr. Bradleys’ residence was destroyed by fire, and no insurance. He then leased the Marshville hotel, to keep matters moving until he could rebuild. This second blow is a hard one, indeed.
