Large Fire At Scotch Grove Damages Barn and Mill Farm
A severe electrical storm caused major damage in Scotch Grove with a barn housing about 60 tons of new hay and several outbuildings at the Kuehl mill farm. Monticello and Center Junction fire companies aided. Earlier storms killed two cows and some poultry on the Otto Lange and Sinclair properties. First aid classes began at Timber schoolhouse with about twenty enrolled. Scotch Grove Presbyterian services pause in July for vacation, resume July 19, and no choir rehearsal this week. The annual children's service at Scotch Grove Presbyterian Church drew a large crowd amid a baptism and music program.
