Ashton Rebuilds and Plans Fireproof Business Block
After the blaze the town of Ashton moves to commerce with Brown & Co selling groceries in John Andrus' hall and Geo R Charters opening a drug store in Mrs Rosenthal's former building. Mills & Petrie aim fireproof bank repairs and two-story brick additions while Gonnerman adds a double building outside fire limits. Elopement of P Baxter and Cora Hardesty noted. Town urges water works and standpipe to prevent future loss as Phoenix-like recovery progresses.
