The fire started in the roof and it is thought that it was caused by the soot catching from a fire for heating irons and setting the roof on fire. The house was occupied by Mr. George Johnson and owned by Mr. Ed Woods of Dawson. Mr. Johnson succeeded in saving most of his furniture. The dwelling, valued at one thousand dollars, was a complete loss. There was no insurance. Additional Comments: (Transcriber's note: A subsequent piece in this same issue indictes that the home was located in Ebenezer and that the occupant was Mr. G.W. Johnson and family.)
