Fire at Monroe Street cabin sparks alarm and snowbound response
A blaze broke out in August Piccinni's cabin at the south end of Monroe Street on a Sunday evening around 30 o'clock. Neighbors sounded the alarm as flames breached the roof, and firemen arrived with County and Rescue Hill carts after a long trek through four inches of new snow. No damage was visible and the fire was believed extinguished, with many thinking a false alarm at first.
