Early Bayard Fire
In Old Photo Today

The town of Bayard W. Va. has
suffered several major fires dur
ing the past IS years, but this is
probably the earliest one recorded.
The unknown photographer was
right on the job, for smoke still
obscures the ruins of what must
have been several large buildings.
The incident occurred on Octo-
Der 8. 1895, when Bayard was
primarily numbering community.
Piles of timber are shown piled to
the left of the picture, and in the
center is a locomotive used to haul
logs from the woods. UndOubted-
~ it was pressed into service to
help fight the fire.
The articles in the foreground
have been salvaged from one Of
the buildings. On the original
photograph can be identified sever
al mattresses. a bolt of cloth. vari-
Gus boxes and articles of furniture

stove. AT the edges of the smoke
obscured area are two tall OBJ
jects, apparently chimneys remain

stroyed
The picture is one of several in
teresting views of scenes in near

Mrs. Wayne Harvey. Mrs. Harvey
was unable to supply any informa-

in this column several weeks ago
brought no response. Several per-
sons, however, did remember later
fires but were unable to recall
this particular one.
