Cheek's Dry Cleaning Shop Filled with Smoke, July 6, 1924

Heated Iron Calls All Firemen Out

An over-heated electric iron in Cheek’s dry cleaning shop on West Main street near Five Points filled the building with smoke about 1:30 o’clock Sunday morning and, upon alarm, trucks and firemen from three stations responded. The damage was negligible.
