Firemen Respond To Cross Burning

On July 17, 1925 around 9:00 p.m. a glow was spotted around West Orange Street causing firemen from one company (the article does not say witch company) to respond to the area. Upon arrival firemen found a cross burning. Three other crosses were found to be ablaze at North Seneca Street, South Penn Street extended and Fayette Street. It was not known positively who was responsible but it was believed to be the work of the local branch of the Ku Klux Klan.
