A Destructive Fire

Winterbourne's Only Industrial Establishment Wiped Out by Fire Clemens Mill Burned Last Night

Fire completely destroyed David Clemens' flourmill at Winterbourne last night. It is feared that loss of life resulted. Just at dusk on Tuesday evening a man with the earmarks of a tramp was seen near the mill. One of the surmises as to the origin of the fire is, that the tramp slept in the mill and, probably by the lighting of a pipe, set fire to the structure. An eye witness brings the report to town that shouts and screams were heard in the burning building, the cries gradually becoming fainter until all was still. The origin of the fire will probably always be a mystery. Others say that the fire had its origin in the engine room. The loss is fully $15,000 on building, machinery and stock. The building was a frame one and the flames were not long in devouring it. Amount of insurance not known.
