BWEHIGER HOME BURNS IN BEEVER AREA
The K A. Bwelger home and contents burned to the ground New Year’s Day on the McCord property. Two girls ages 10 and 14 saved only a few items before the blaze grew uncontrollable. The fire origin is suspected to be a overheated stove. The Sweiger family, away at the country, faced a total loss with few belongings saved. A rural route carrier will assist in assessing the damage and establishing a measure of aid.
