    3. Bloomington (Monroe County, Indiana) Evening World, October 17, 1916, p. 1. FIRE DESTROYS DR HOLLAND HOME Fire at 2:30 this afternoon completely gutted the large two story brick residence of Dr. Frank Holland, north College Avenue, causing a loss roughly estimated at more than $6,000. Only a few of the household goods were saved. Mrs. Holland and children were down stairs when one of the neighbors called Mrs. Holland and told her the roof of the house was in flames. The upper part of the building burned like tinder and in but a short time was a mass of flames. It is not known what the origin was unless it was from a defective flue or a live spark. A number of things were quickly carried out but smoke soon drove all from the building. The loss is well covered by insurance. Dr. Holland is with the hospital corps at Llano Grande, Texas.
