LIVELY FIRE ON TWELFTH STREET
-
IT BROKE OUT IN JOHN W. HENRY’S HOUSE
-
Shortly After Midnight and the Fire Department Did Good Work Putting It Out
-
A fire broke out in the residence of John W. Henry on the east side of Twelfth street, three doors south of S. University avenue, at about 1 o'clock a. m. Monday. It first appeared in the room of two students and when Mr. Henry and his brother, who occupy a room back, woke up they found the hall full of smoke, and forcing an entrance into the students' room found it unoccupied and all afire. The fire department did good work and saved the house, not however until the room and much clothing had been destroyed. The loss will be under $500, covered with insurance.
