I think your ma may have told all the family news. I will take the town topics. Monday there was a murder committed down off Green St below the block as it is called a Greek shot a Jew woman. a bad bunch I guess. [[Lisa?]] sent the news which tells nearly all about it they have got no trace of the man as yet. I doubt if they ever do. The fire did not get out of the building it was in  it is only four feet from the side of store so if it had a little longer time it might have schorched the store side a little but that is one of the chances a fellow takes who is down town.
