BLAZE IN KILRENNY SHOP.

Tenants Burning Injuries. –

Fire broke out in the premises of Mr William Crease, confectioner, Kilrenny, last night.

The outbreak is supposed to have been caused by an explosion of the carbide plant which Mr Crease installed to supply light to his shop and house.

The village was agog with excitement when the alarm was given, and numerous helpers with pails of water succeeded in quelling the conflagration, the services of the joint fire brigade of Anstruther and Cellardyke being unnecessary.

Mr Crease, who belongs to Crail, was badly injured and was brought to Anstruther suffering from a burnt wrist and a badly scorched face. He was attended to by Dr Wilson. Anstruther, and was later able to proceed home. The stock the front shop is ruined. It was only two years ago that the same building was practically gutted by fire.
