Millview Inn Owner Plans To Rebuild After $60,000 Fire
Charles Hanning owner of the Millview Inn on West Union Street said he will start rebuilding this week after a Saturday night fire caused about 60 000 in damage. Firefighters used multiple hose lines to control the blaze that gutted the inn and damaged apartments above it. About 200 students were inside at the time but all escaped unhurt. The fire was blamed on a faulty relay in a fuel oil furnace and investigators planned to meet with adjusters to finalize settlement. Charles Hanning praised firefighters and noted extensive damage to the 125 ft glass front overlooking White's Mill Dam. One spectator faced disorderly conduct charges and was bonded.
