Fire Damages Stable At The Sherman House
On October 26, 1910 at 10:30 p.m. the firehall bells rang out an alarm of fire for the James A. Sharp’s Livery stable adjacent the Sherman House. A fire of undetermined origin started in a corncrib next to the stable and extended to the roof of the stable by the time firemen arrived. Firemen had the blaze under control in a few minutes. A damage estimate was not available. 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.
I have a letter written on the old Hotel Shermans letterhead stationary picturing the hotel. It is dated Feb. 8,1928 and was written by a sales agent who was staying thereand worked for the company I am retired from. If anyone is interested in this you can contact me at slauber@woh.rr.com
