Cameron Fire Destroys Green Bros and Krough Buildings
A Tuesday night blaze in Cameron devastated the Green Bros warehouse and the adjoining L. H. Krough garage, destroying five vehicles and triggering appeals for a new fire truck while local departments kept the flames from spreading. Insured losses for Green Bros are about 3500 dollars, while Krough cites 4500 dollars in uninsurable damage plus the loss of seven Maxwell cars saved from the scene. The Cameron Fire Department responded quickly, aided by the Rockdale unit, and residents urge funding for enhancements as a local hero from C H Yee sent a 50 dollar donation from his sick bed.
