The blaze was not under control untir 7.30. No. 80, occupied by a Chinese shop selling earthenware and china goods, was also involved, being damaged mostly by water.

After the fire it was found that both No. 78 Jervois Street and No. 28, Hiller Street, had been gutted. The goods stored in these two houses were insured, as well aa the buildings themselves. It is estimated that the insurance is well over $40,000. The goods and the building at No. 78 were insured to the extent of $30,000.
