OLDEST HOUSE IN CLARK COUN
TY BURNED.

The old Renick homestead, prob
ably the oldest house in Clark
county. was burned to the ground
the past week, the fire being doubt
less due to defective f1ue. The
place was near Renick Station, just
back of the present homestead Of
Hon. Abram Renick. 1t was Occur
pied by Mr.. Lowell and family.
TIE house was built in 1898 by
the great-grandfather of Mr.. Rer-
lex, and was thus 127 years old at
the time it was burned. It was
built Of logs. and was
well and substantially constructed
and consisted of six rooms.
