The Cherokee Advance (Canton, Ga.)   Friday 3 Dec 1886 P 3 December 3, 1886
The Methodist church at Little River caught on fire last Saturday from a 
defective flue, and when discovered, some four hours afterward, had burned along 
the ceiling some distance and two holes in the floor, directly under the 
ceiling, where the fire had dropped from above.  The church is very close, but 
the fire was flaming on the floor and making pretty good headway when 
discovered.  This is one of the best country churches in the county, costing 
$1,000 or more, and its burning would have been a great calamity to that 
section.  Church trustees, and others, should be very careful and see to it that 
stove pipes and flues are safe.
