Lurgan Twp. House Destroyed

On February 4, 1965 at 11:00 a.m. firemen responded to a house fire in Lurgan. A fire of undetermined origin caused heavy damage to an occupied 2-½-story frame dwelling. A relative was able to remove some of the family possessions before they were destroyed. Firemen were hampered in fighting the blaze because of biting wind and 17 degree temperatures. A damage estimate was not available. The Vigilant Hose Company assisted the Pleasant Hall Fire Company at the scene.
