old store, built in 1888 or ‘89,
was almost totally involved in
fire within minutes.
Owner John Fitch vows to
rebuild the store in a replica of
the original structure.
As soon as the shock wore

fund raising drive to augment
the insurance on the store, and
help with the rebuilding of what
has been a de facto communi
ty center for a century.

project, call Arthur Laubach at
