On last Sunday morning the peo
ple of Elmwood were aroused from
j Ireful slumber by the furious rine-
"b ii "' ut-ii, auu utie b:i
hastening to ascertain where the fire
might be. It was soon discovered
that the large barn on the L. U.
Cunningham place in the center of
town was on fire and had gained con
siderable headway. The fire bojj
turned on the water but it was to
far gone that none of the builclirs
was saved. The origin of the fire
is not known but the supposition 1.4
that the building was struck by
lightning. It was fortunate that it
was raining and things were rather
damp as the wind was blowing and
other buildings close by would had
ignited and a rather serious fire
might have developed. The building
was slightly covered by insurance
so will not be a total loss to Mr.
Cunningham. Elmwood Leader
