Do Talcott Loses House and Much
Contents By Fir Last Thurs
day Afternoon
The Dee Talcott farm residence
was entirely consumed by fire lact
Thursday, the loss including all con-
tents of the upper story as well as
"some furniture on the ground floor.
Lots is estimated at $1,000.
Dee had gone to the chicken house
for the purpose of cleaning it np.
He started to the residence after a
cleaning utensil and saw the roof a
mass of fire. He rushed to the burn
ing structure and tore loose a screen
door at the rear and then began car
rying things out As he was about to
deposit an armfull of goods on the
ground he met Mrs. Ray Kaylor and
a few minutes later Ray came over.
Dee and Ray then proceeded to get
busy. They salvaged the piano, kitch
en range and some beds and bedding,
as well aa clothing. Dee had in mind
to save a trunk containing valuable
papers, but in the excitement forgot
that act and got busy on other thing--'.
All his father's belongings were in
the upper story and these were all
lost
It is supposed the fire originated
from a defective flue, aa the fire,
when first observed, was around the
place where the chimney came thru
thereof. ' There was no insurance
carried on buildings or contents,
therefor whatever loss Mr. Talcott
sustained is total.
For a time the Talcott's will oc
cupy the ranch home of Mrs. Tal
cott's sister, immediately across the
road from the burned dwelling. The
loss of their home is particularly
hard at this time, for Mr. Talcott
had about gotten " on his feet and
now that he will be put to the ex-
, . pense of building a new house means
,' that the profit on his labor of yean;
' will be greatly lessened. The sympa
thy of all our people goes out to Dee
and his wife in their hour of disaster.
