Fire Damages Cressler’s Bakery
On March 1, 1908 in the early morning the station bells began to toll an alarm of fire for R. C. Cressler’s Bakery on West King Street. Firemen were soon hauling their hose carriages up King Street in the sleet and freezing rain. A defective flue caused a fire that destroyed the roof and did heavy water damage to the one story building. A damage estimate was not available. Firemen had the blaze under control quickly. The Vigilant Hose and Cumberland Valley Hose companies 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.
