Fire Destroys Chicken House at Mable Monson Farm
Crawfordsville volunteers answered a Friday call after neighbors spotted flames at the farm home of Mrs. Mable Monson. Sparks from a trash burner apparently blew to a nearby chicken house, which burned completely. Nearby fence posts and a gate ignited, and pine trees flamed briefly. Other buildings were saved by wind direction and the quick actions of the volunteer department. Mrs. Monson and Don were at home but away when the fire started.
