Fires in 1912
by H. E. P. The year 1912 was one of tbe most disastrous, in fire losses, the village of Freeport bas aver experienced, with a loss of about $12,000, witb 16 alarms answered. The year 1911. with 16 alarms.,the loss only amounted toatwut IS.OOO,' while in 1910, with over 30 calls, it was even lesa.
Tbese figurea, however, tend in no wise to discredit tbe workings of the fire department. Wbere in 1910 there w&s a serias of brash firea and false alarms, nearly every time tfae firemen were called apon last year, tbe fires bad gained aoch headway as to be visi¬ ble at a distance, before the alarm sounded. In fact, at no time bas the fire department so completely demon¬ strated its value, as in tha year jast past
Tbe list of fires, withthe approxi¬ mate damage is:

Bedford has a population of 3000, lies in the south-! western part of tbe state, against the Blue Ridge Mountains, at an elevation j Roses do not bloom all fact I am told the i Fires in 1912 by H. E. P. The year 1912 was one of tbe most disastrous, in fire losses, the village of Freeport bas aver experienced, with a loss of about $12,000, witb 16 alarms answered. The year 1911. with 16 alarms.,the loss only amounted toatwut IS.OOO,' while in 1910, with over 30 calls, it was even lesa. Tbese figurea, however, tend in no wise to discredit tbe workings of the fire department. Wbere in 1910 there w&s a serias of brash firea and false alarms, nearly every time tfae firemen were called apon last year, tbe fires bad gained aoch headway as to be visi¬ ble at a distance, before the alarm sounded. In fact, at no time bas the fire department so completely demon¬ strated its value, as in tha year jast past Tbe list of fires, withthe approxi¬ mate damage is: Jan. 18, C. Martini's, boose, 2000. Jan. 31, w. s. Main Street, 1st boose above Archer, $25. Feb. 22, Miss DePigoerado, garage, $500. March 3, grass fire, none. Marcb 3, Greve's aoto, trifling.
