Maggie Lytton Loses Residence to Fire, April 28, 1926

Mrs. Lytton Loses Her Dwelling by Fire

Mrs. Maggie Lytton had the misfortune of losing her residence near the plant by fire last Thursday night. The fire was discovered about 10 o’clock and owing to the fact that the fire started on the inside it had made such headway before the discovery that the firemen were only able to partially save the building. The house was not occupied at the time of the fire, Mrs. Lytton having moved nearly all her household effects some time before.

The building was a small one-room house entailing a loss of about $350. The origin of the fire is unknown, But Miss Lytton things it was incendiary.
