Fire destroys mill shed and damages warehouse
A fire last night destroyed a shed at the mill and damaged a warehouse on North Center Street near Heath. The blaze started shortly before midnight, enveloping the shed and causing about 500 dollars in damage to the shed and contents, with similar potential loss to the warehouse stock awaiting insurance valuation. The fire department used three lines of hose, and investigators suspect incendiary origin. No workers were in the shed for over a week. Mr. Heath had inspected the premises earlier that day.
