Fire destroys hotel at Leon landmark
Sunday fire at the Leon Hotel, a two story L shaped landmark, caused over 25000 dollars in damage. More than 200 volunteer firefighters from 13 companies in Cattaraugus and Chautauqua counties fought the blaze until daybreak. One firefighter was injured. Firemen’s Mutual Aid helped prevent a disaster like the 25 year ago Four Corners fire. Sparks ignited a roof across the street hitting a store and the post office. Leon Creamery reservoir pumps aided by pumping dry to supply water. Firefighters extended lines toward Conewango Creek for additional water as cold air tempered the blaze.
