SERMON STOPPED BY FIRE.
As the Rev. C. J. Whitehead, vicar of South Nowington, five miles from Ban,bnry <JEng)., was about to start his sermon in the church on a recent Sunday evening, he was informed that the vicarage was on fire. He pronounced the Benediction, and accompanied by most of the congregation trooping out, despite an appeal from the vicar to remain. The library and other rooms were gutted, and only the walls of the dining and drawing rooms were left standing. The fire broke out again on Monday, and the Banbury brigade had to be summoned.
