TENBY. DEATH OF THE REV. F. O. ELLIs.-The many frienda of the Rev. F. O. Ellis will hear with sincere regret of his death, which occurred on Saturday morning last, at Great Barr, Birmingham. Mr Ellis was 35 years of age, and for a long time had been an invalid and unable to take that active part in the Work of the parish he would have wished but he never ceased to take an interest in the work, and as Utely as the 1st of May of this year he was wheeled in his chair to baptise a cottager's dying child. He Was interred at Great Barr on Wednesday afternoon. During his curacy of Tenby, which extended from 1879 to 1882, lie-was held in high respect by the inhabitants ienelally, anJ by the poor in particular, by whom his acts of generosity are yet remembered. SERIOUS FIRE.—About six on Friday morning a fire was discovered to have brokeu out on the premises of Cash Stores in High Street, Mr P. Palmer pro- prietor. The inmates were at once aroused and got out safely, but the fire had secured a firm grip npon the shop. The Volunteer Brigade were at once sum- moned, and under the direction of Captain Alfred Thomas Lewis, and Lieutenant H. J. Gregory, the brigade got the hose into play, and at eight o'clock the fire had been subdued, but not until nearly the Whole of the stock had been destroyed and the pre- mises considerably damaged. Much irritation was expressed at the absence of the police, who did not make an appearance until some three hours after the discovery of the fire. In consequence of this, the brigade was unable to get at the fire bell in the police station and so give the alarm to the fire brigade. Lieutenant Henderson, R.N., divisional officer of Coastguard, was present to offer any assistance that might be required. Credit is due to the fire brigade for their promptness in getting to work, and to this is due entirely the fact that the flames were circum- scribed and a serious conflagration prevented. The stock and premises were insured.
