Apple Avenue House Burns

On September 10, 1949 at 7:00 a.m. firemen were sent to 131 Apple Avenue for a house fire. An overheated kitchen stove caused a fire that did heavy damage to a 2-½-story frame occupied dwelling. The fire extended to the outside wall and roof of the exposure building (another occupied house). Damages were estimated at $2,500. The Vigilant Hose and Cumberland Valley Hose companies answered the alarm.
