Fire damages barns and house near old foundry in town
A daytime blaze from box 41 swept east in the town damaging Ban Griffiths barn, its roof burning, and a pile of timber. The fire spread to nearby structures including a stable, woodshed, and a house occupied by Gen Haley. Despite extensive damage, water works helped prevent a wider disaster and several fruit trees were killed. A separate runaway horse incident near the court house caused a collision but ended with the horse walking away. A Republican senatorial convention was announced for September 22 in the Sand district.
