The Goolsby brick building in the same Block withstood-the fire. The Elgy building stood just across the street from the brick stores in the heart of town, and for a time it looked as if the fire would sweep the e’ntire section, but the op en spaee of the street and the brick composition of the main business block kept it from catching. While the fire was at its height the wind veered and the flames did not spread on the uptow n side into the residence section. •. The losses were heavy, as the ef fort was made rather to-keep the fire from'spreading than to save the merchandise in the doomed stores.
