threatened by fire of undeter
mined origin between 11:10 p.m.
and midnight yesterday, at 531
Marie street, firemen reported
this morning. The residence of
Mrs. Lucie Wilcox was burned
to the ground.
While the fire started outside
the city limits, firemen respond
ed to a general alarm because
property inside the city was be
ing threatened, according to Act
ing Chief Leo Weidner. The fire
was not permitted to spread.
Hamoerad in Work
Firemen were considerably
hampered in their work because
of curious citizens who followed
the enaines in automobiles,
Weidner said. In this particular
instance, the only water avail
able was carried in a pumper,

engine could not have gotten out
to obtain more because of cars
blocking the way, the chief
renorted.
