E. B. c. SNIPES LOST
HOME BY FLAMES
Beautiful Country Dwelling Com.
pletely Destroyed By Fire
Last Night About II O'clock

Shortly after II o'clock last night
Anderson people observed confla-
grafton to the northwest of the city
and investigation revealed the fact
that the home of E. B. C. Snipes,
about five miles from the city, was
in flames. Neighbors gathered from
nearby homes and did everything that
they could to save the place but the
fire had made such progress that the
building was doomed.
This was one Of the prettiest small
country houses in the county. The
house was six-room, one-story
building and was modern and COM
plete in every respect. 1t was prob
ably valued at from $4,000 to $4,000
and the furniture lost last night ADDS
to this loss. 1t is understood that Mr..
Snipes carried some insurance on the
building.
1t was impossible to learn last night
anything concerning the origin Of the
fire and 1t is hardly probable that
members of the Snipes family can
throw any light on the origin Of the
fire, as they had already retired.
