Stable Burned

On May 9, 1918 shortly before midnight a fire was discovered in the stable of J. P. Hockersmith, off Morris Street. Before firemen arrived the upper part of the stable was burned and the lower part was badly damaged. A few chickens were lost in the blaze. A damage estimate was not available. The Vigilant Hose and Cumberland Valley Hose companies answered the alarm. A damage estimate was not available.

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.
