THE CHURCH OF GOD building under construction on the cut-off caught fire and was almost tot-'
ally destroyed Monday night of this week. An alarm came to the Newberry Fire Department at
10:40 p. m., according to Fire Chief Sam Beam, who said the building was 1500 feet from the near
est hydrant at Harrington Heights, and because smoke and flames were coming from all of the win-
dows by the time the fire department arrived, there was little the firemen could do. It is reported
that the building was covered by only $12,000 insurance. The building had not been completed at
the time of the fire and no services had been held. (Sunphoto by Doris A. Sanders.) .
