Eight-Hour Woods Fire Threatens Coxs Head Cottages
A two acre blaze at Cox's Head Phippsburg raged Sunday from 2 15 p m near the Percy place barn to the river woods. Volunteers led by Fire Warden Perley J Quimby fought the fire for eight hours as a favorable wind and low Kennebec tide limited water supply from wells. The Percy farm now belonged to Edward Dubuty of Boston. The cottages at risk were home to Mrs Sarah Wilbur of Portland and the Goodwins of Concord Massachusetts.
