Rochester, Monroe, NY Union & Advertiser Sept. 16, 1879 LOCAL MATTERS -When the fire accident occurred at Miss PARKS'S dressmaking rooms yesterday, Officer HURLEY was promptly at the scene, and although urged to give a general fire alarm, wisely exercised his own judgment and declined, there being no occasion to call out the department. -A delivery wagon owned by a man named KIRKPATRICK was smashed against a tree on Scio street last evening, a horse drawing it having runaway from Main street. -The Excise Board yesterday revoked the license of Anthony KNOPE, whose case they had before them for some time. -In looking over the Executive Board report we came across the astounding statement that the number of miles of pipe laid in the city was 95,467.

CARPENTER, of Sweden, who died August 30th, was to-day admitted to probate. It disposed of 3,800. Susan M.
