Lone Rocker from Front Porch Saved When Fesperman Home Was Destroyed by Fire, Oct. 6, 1926

Home of C. M. Fesperman at Badin Destroyed by Fire

Badin, Oct. 6—The home of Mr. and Mrs. C. M. Fesperman on Falls Road was destroyed by fire Saturday morning at 2:30 o’clock. Mr. and Mrs. Fesperman were in Salisbury, leaving in the afternoon to take their little daughter to an eye specialist. The home was ready to fall in when discovered by one of the neighbors across the street.

All the household goods were burned with the exception of a rocker that was on the porch. The origin of the fire is unknown, as there had been no fire in the house since dinner. The household goods were partially covered by insurance.
