When discovered, THE flames had
spread through the interior of the
building. The fire department con-
quered the flames, but not before the
house and furnishings had been
ruined The barn and hen-house at
tached to the main house were
saved. Mr.. Holz and his son Charles
and family were at the food fair
when the fire started. 1t is believed
it started around the kitchen stove.
There was much anxiety among the
firemen at first, as it was thought
that Mr. Holz was in the house, and
the smoke was so thick it was al
most impossible to gain entrance.
There was insurance on both the
house and furnishings.
