Fire Destroys 10-Room House on Apple Pie Ridge
A 10 room two story log house on Apple Pie Ridge owned by Jamison of Winchester and occupied by W M Woodward burned yesterday evening. The fire started upstairs and the blaze consumed most of the structure before detection by Mrs Woodward who saved her four children. Household possessions were lost and insurance did not cover the loss. Fire Companies from Lupton Orchard Service and Clearbrook responded. The building, old and likely Civil War hospital era, was moved into Saturday. Woodward had just returned to find the fire nearly out of control.

The Democratic National Committee countered that any sabotage of Truman’s program would be challenged.
