Show CANYON HALL FIRE NOT SERIOUS The "Bingham News" wishes to correct an, erfouneous report which has been published locally as to the fire which occurred at Canyon hall on the morning of June the 30th, at 3 a. m. the Volunteer Fire Departments quickly responded to the call and once more ably demonstrated to the people of Bingham their efficient ef-ficient fire fighting proclivities, in preventing the spread of the flames to ladjacent buildings, Fire Insurance Underwriters visited the scene of the fire on Monday and estimate the damage dam-age of the Canyon hall to be $4,000 which is fully covered by insurance. The owners of the building, Chief Deputy Sheriff Ade Heaston, and Harry Steele will commence re-building as soon as bids can be secured from local contractors. The floor, .i but slightly damaged, care will be taken however to see the springs of the floor and the foundations are put in the best shape possible, so that the Canyon Can-yon hall may still retain the name of having one of the best dance floors in the State. The Garage, situate on the ground floor, was badly damaged by fire as were the eleven cars stored stor-ed there. Some of the cars were partially insured, and were owned own-ed by A. L. Heaston, A. C. Cole, A. Williams, L. Buckle, II. W. Carter, Lenn Davis, Ray Ollis, James McMillan, George Wright Rulon Russon and a new Ford, which had only been brought out from Salt Lake about seven hours before the fire occurred, which was owned by G. Sharp. |
