caldwell HOME BADLY
DAMAGED BY SUNDAY FIRE.


Fire, discovered shortly after 1
O'Clock Sunday afternoon badly
damaged the home occupied by
Misses Aeolia and Nan Caldwell and
their nephews, Messrs. r. Nj. and
w. D. Harvey on South Lee street.
The property loss sustained was es-
timated this morning at approx
mately $4,000 with about the same
sum carried in insurance, according
to r. M. Harvey, one of the owners
of the property, who is cashier of
the Pimes-Recorder Go.
Much yof the personal property,
including furniture and household
effect, was removed from the home
befope being burned, but a consid-
cradle qiantity Of this was badly
damaged by water and rough handl-
ing during its hurried removal. Mr..
Harvey was not sure today that any
was carried on this. The
fire is believed by Chief w. P. Nc
Arthur, of the Americus fire depart
ment, to have originated from a de-
fectiye flue, and the blaze was first
discovered by c. j. Williams, who
resides in an adjoining home.
Many persons were attracted to
the scene of the fire by dense
smoke clouds, and number Of
these assisted in removing the
household effects from the burning
structure. The home occupied bv
Mr.. Williams and owned by DR..
Thurman, caught from the intense
heat Of the burning home, but this
blaze was eXtipguished with little
damage.
