Heroic Work Prevents Town
From Being Wiped Out
by Fire

That Pennsgrove opposite Edge Moore
on the New Jersey side Of the Delaware
river was not destroyed by hre last night
was practically due to untiring efforts and
hero.c work Of the citizens OF that place.
Fire broke out in the third story OF the
home of James Finnigan In Pltman street
shortly before 10 o'clock and for time
1t looked as II the conhagraton OF two
years ago would be repeated.
Tho house IN which the fire originated
was owned by Mrs. Hannah Ashgraft and
In a remarkably short time It was a mass
Of flames. The sky was illuminated for
some distance and was plainly seen in
Wilmington.
The Mayor Of Pennsgrove telephoned to
Wilmington for assistance and Chief Stir
ley. OF the fire department ordered the
Liberty and Washington Companies out.
About the time the FIRE apparatus was be-
ing placed on the steamer Ulrica word
was received that the fre was under
control and the engines remained here.
The home OF Daniel Leonard caught FIRE
from the burning building but was saved
before much damage was done. A strong
gale was Blowing at the tima and how a
big connagration was averted is mir
acle. The loss will reach 5000 covered by
