Fire Rages at Great Northern Hotel Killing Two
Fire at the Great Northern hotel Saturday left a 56 year old man dead and a 17 year old bride among the injured while authorities searched the ruins for more victims. John Bain of Detroit died after leaping from a third story ledge as the blaze spread. Martha Adams of Amity Arkansas died from burns and her husband Jimmy remained in critical condition. Rain delayed the rescue efforts and hindered entry into the wreckage.
