Amberson Cabin Burns Down

On October 8, 1987 at 5:30 a.m. companies were dispatched to a cabin fire on Rt. 641, Amberson. A fire of undetermined origin completely destroyed a two-story log-hunting cabin. Firefighters from five companies had the blaze under control in 15 minutes and remained on the scene for three hours. A damage estimate was not available. The Vigilant Hose Company assisted at the scene.

Oh, the good old days. I remember this one, we'd fight the fire until we ran out of water. Then sit around while the flames grew. More water. More firefighting. It went on like this all morning.
