Explosion in Waverley Hall

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Last night, about 7 o'clock, the hot water boiler, used to heat the swimming tank in Waverley Hall, exploded, blowing up the heavy stone steps at the entrance to the building, breaking several large windows on the first floor, and making a hole in the cellar wall.

The explosion was due to the failure of a check valve to work. The loss, which is fully covered by insurance, is estimated between $400 and $500.
