Fire Destroys Garage
Goddard Garage Burns With
aLoss Of Two Automobiles
and Auto Supplies

Wednesday morning about 10
O'Clock The Goddard garage a.
cross from the Farmers Lumber Com
pany on 5th Street caught fire from
an explosion of can of gasoline and
caused total destruction of the build
ing and contents and badly burned
the H. A Lee Tin Shop just east of
the garage.
The fire started from the explosion
OF the volcanizer and Mr.. Goddard
himself had narrow escape from
cremation. When the explosion Oc
cured, burning gasoline was throwh
all over the garage and over Mr.. God
dard, who had the presence of mind
to graba fire extinguSher and put out
the blaze on himself but the fire in
the building had gained such head
way that he made his escape from the
burning building with difficulty.
Two autos were in the place. Mrs.
M. e. Rudolph's new Mitchell and
Wendt and Straw's Hudson 33 and
both cars were burned to almost
nothing. The rudolph car was fully
insured but the burning of the Hud-
son was o total loss to its owners.
The building belonged to G. B..
Kennedy and had no insurance,
making that total loss. Mr.. Lees
shop was badly burned and his furni-
ture received rough treatment but
his loss will be covered by insurance.
Goddard s loss was small.
The work of our fire department
was wonderful. The building was a
mass of flames when the alarm was
given and had good start on the Lee
building but by hard work and good
Judgment our fire boys had tn
flames under control in half an hour
and entirely put out In an hour. Tou
much praise cannot be given the fire
boys for their excellenr work and the
LEADER voices the sentiment OF many
that we have the best Volenteer Fire
Departm lent in the state.
