Visits Here After IS Years
Mrs. Eva Proctor, who has been
spending a week with her cousin,
William z. Vickers, on South Rail-
road avenue, has returned to her
home in Miami, Florida. Mrs. Proc
tor, formerly Miss Eva Vickers, was
born in Smyrna, this State. She had
not been in Georgetown in more
than thirty-five years. For many
years she has been conducting a
studio in Miami, doing photography,
development and artist work. She Is
one Of the best known artists in that
section. Mrs. Proctor contemplates
moving to Delaware next year and
possibly will open studios in George
town and at Rehoboth Beach.
As Georgetown has been without a
frst-class photographer for many
years, this is considered an ideal To-
cation because of the large territory
to draw from.
Early Sunday Morning Fire
Fire of undetermined origin broke
out in the home Of Mrs. Nettie J..
Downes, on South Bedford street,

morning.
The blaze had gained considerable
headway before being discovered.
Mrs. Downes and son, Aldon, who
lives with her, were away from home
at the time, the son visiting in Phil
adelphia, while Mrs. Downes was
visiting a daughter. AS soon as the
blaze was discovered an alarm was
sent in and the firemen responded to
the call.
The flames, however, had eaten
their way to nearly every section OF
the dwelling, and it required hard
work on the part of the firemen to
keen the blaze confined to the build
ing. m
The loss, it is understood, will
reach $250O, including dam
age to the building and household
goods. Only a small part of the fur
