Fire and Flood Visit Hopbottom in Sudden Hardship
In Hopbottom Pennsylvania on March 3 floodwaters and a house fire drew the town into action. Alonzo Bell’s dwelling, occupied by Henry Felton, burned with roof smoke and exposed interiors but was restrained by water from G W Strapler and bucket brigades. The family moved to safety, damage limited to roof and mud, while high water earlier in the week prompted thoughts of higher ground. The community notes include Sabbath school activities, Miss Alta Finn visiting Kingsley, Miss Minnie Halley departing for Lemon to work as postale clerk, and a Methodist church institute program on March 6 with addresses by Rev Isaac Jenkins Rev H J Crane and Rev Charles Heads.
