Fire destroys Michel town and disrupts Crow’s Nest line
Heavy forest fires swept Michel causing $80,000 in damage and leaving about fifty families homeless. The flames destroyed all buildings along the Crow’s Nest line, with little time to flee. A hard fight prevented the fire from crossing the track as flames engulfed a broad valley from summit to base. The Burns area and two large boarding houses built of wood were burned, and authorities faced a long recovery. Nearby, Swiftwater Bill Gates’ ex-wife, Iscivittwater Bilvalt LaMore, now in Spokane, described him as moneyless and boastful, recalling his spendthrift ways and the gossip around his wealth.
