Atlanta Constitution, Atlanta, Ga
Cedartown Advertiser:  The elegant and commodious barn of Mr. A. Huntington, on 
his place, one and a half miles northeast of town, was burned on Friday night 
last.  The fire was not discovered until the flames were bursting through the 
roof, and all efforts to save any of the contents were utterly futile.  There 
were consumed in the barn five head of mules and one horse, about five hundred 
bushels of corn, a thousand bushels of oats, several hundred bushels of wheat, 
besides a considerable amount of fodder, etc.  The fire  it is strongly 
believed, was the work of an incendiary.  Insurance on barn and contents we 
learn amounted to only $1,550, while Mr. H.‘s losses foot up at least $4,000. 
(Atlanta Constitution, Atlanta, Ga, August 7, 1883)
