One Room Dwelling Destroyed
On April 8, 1955 at 4:30 p.m. on the Ritner Highway, two miles east of Shippensburg, firemen were alerted for a house fire after a passing motorist spotted smoke coming from a house. An overheated coal stove set fire to a wall destroying the interior and most of the contents of an occupied one-room dwelling, displacing a 71-year old man. A damage estimate was not available. The Vigilant Hose Company answered the alarm.

I am sorry to add the word verification but recently 88 of my post were spammed in one night. I do not have the time to correct that many post again, so this will eliminate the bullshit.
