Shriver Barn Destroyed In Butler Township Fire
A large barn on Edward Shriver’s farm in Butler Township was destroyed by fire on Monday evening. The structure, recently rebuilt after a previous barn burned a decade ago, also claimed the hog pen and hay. Firefighters from Biglerville Gettysburg and other local crews battled the blaze but the barn was a total loss. It is unclear if the property carried insurance.
