Fire of undetermined origin in an old automobile truck at the rear of the Perry Apartments on East Church street brought out trucks 1 and 2 and the hook and ladder company Saturday morning at 10:55 o’clock. The blaze was quickly extinguished with chemicals. Fire Chief Flora expressed the opinion that it was started by children playing with matches. The fire caused considerable excitement among occupants of the apartments.
