The auto fire truck was called out
at 1850 Sunday morning by a still
alarm from the Fuller-Holway feed
and grain store on upper Water
street. but on the arrival Of the
truck at the building it was found
that there was no trouble
that the fire alarm box had dropped
from the wall Of the building to the
sidewalk. AS the box was firmly at
tached to the brick wall it is suppos-
ed that something must have struck
the box quite A blow to release It
from its fastenings. No damage was
done and no part of the box was
broken.
