"The Carroll County Times" :
Carrollton, Carroll Co., Georgia

NEWSPAPER Issue of Friday, FEBRUARY 1, 1878

From "The Newnan Herald"

The widow Holland, living on Mr. Samuel Arnold's plantation between Newnan 
and Atlanta, had her house and everything in it, also her corn crib with all 
the corn she had, entirely consumed by fire last Tuesday night, two weeks 
last. The old lady herself came very near being burned to death, having 
fainted when she discovered the fire. Not a thing was saved, not even their 
clothes. She and her family should be provided for by our citizens as they 
are honest and industrious people.

Additional Comments:

Not sure if land is in Coweta Co. or Old Campbell County, so I posted this to 
the archives for both counties.

If anyone can shed some light, please advise.
