School House Burns in South Aberdeen Fire
A school house in South Aberdeen was discovered ablaze at 7:30 Monday evening and burned completely along with its contents. Delays from poor streets and distance to fire HQ delayed the response, requiring 1,100 feet of hose before the building could be saved. The structure, built two years ago, cost about $3,000 and was insured for $2,000 with $200 on contents. A false alarm from Wilson mill distracted crews, and a fire engine damaged wheels while racing to the point.
