Wiring Blamed For Fire At Arnold Matheny Home

Nelsonville firemen fought two alarms on Thursday. At 3 45 p m they reached Mason City Hill where the Arnold Matheny house burned with heavy ceiling damage in the living room and a bedroom. Crews said the fire started from shorted wiring due to an overload that melted insulation. A separate auto fire near the city building drew attention at about 5 30 p m when a 1966 sedan trunk short occurred.
