SfEINFRa* SKINNFR PhOThO JANfe-rtlf »Y W.q..ALEXINOER HOFFMAN HARDWARE yFRNONiA ORE THE ORIGINAL Hoffman Hardware building constructed in 1223 is pictured a, it burned January 6, 1924 from a fire which started in the Steiner and S inner garage located where the Western Store now stands. Practically all hardware on tne first floor wai removed and placed in the Mess;ng building on Third street where C. S. Hoffman opened for. business at 8 o'clock the mornHg after the fi-e. Not one business day was lost as a result. The fire gained considerable headway due to the extreme cold at that time which froze the adjacent hydrant. In spite of the cold, volunteer firemen kept the fire con fined to the two buildings. Work started on the si te before the ashes had cooled towards the construc tion of the present fireproof hardware building the firm occuoies. This photo was made available for publication by Mrs. C. S. Hoffman who is residing at McKenzie Bridge. CASON TRANSFER Call 581 for Free P* M Wilbur (Shorty) Davis, Prop.
