Personal and Local Mention

Horace Crookham, a young man seventeen years old, lost his life in a fire which 
took place in the Hurce Theater, Tuesday evening of last week, caused by the 
ignition of a broken reel.  When the reel caught fire, the young man ran up a 
ladder and thru a trap door into the space between the ceiling and the roof.  
Death was caused by suffocation.  Mr. Beal, the manager was badly burned on the 
face and hands.  The crowd escaped from the building without injury and but 
little damage was done to the building.

Note-according to the Idaho State Death Index, Horace Crookham died in Caldwell 
on July 26, 1917.  He was born Nov. 3, 1901.
