Franklinton Stores Damaged by Fire

Henerson, N.C., Jan. 18 (AP)—Several stores in Franklinton, 16miles south of here, were damaged by fire to the extent of $10,000 in a blaze of unknown origin early Sunday morning. The loss is partly covered by insurance. Defective electric wiring is one theory as to the cause of the fire.
