Rebuild Barn That
Collapsed October 8

A barn on the former Shuttleworth
farm near Red House, collapsed on
October 8, following a wind and rain
storm, but neighbors were quick in
offering their assistance toward con-
structing a new one.
The farm is occupied by Mr.. and
Mrs. William DUR and their five
children. The family was preparing to
milk when it co's;psed, but the live
stock were still in the pasture.
The barn was built by William
Devers 10 years ago.
Neighbors quickly gathered and by
noon they began to bale the loose
hay and uncovered three sows and
their litters of pigs. Two of the sows
and most of the pigs were saved.
Neighbors also are building the wall
for new barn. Trees have been
felled and sawed into lumber for a
barn-raising in the near future.
Thirty or more neighbors assisted in
baling the hay and straw and NOV
ing lumber.
Mr.. DUR was injured when a beam
