Frosty turnout for Roanoke Rapids fire department mass meeting
Only seven citizens answered the second mass meeting called by Mayor J. T. Chase to organize a volunteer fire department for Roanoke Rapids. The small turnout followed a prior meeting with twelve attendees as apathy tempers progress and no formal plans emerged. The North Carolina Insurance Department offered to send a trainer, but without local interest the effort seems doomed.
