Re: Charles Horak McArthur Visited by a Most Disastrous Fire Monday: An other disastrous fire which was discovered near the same place of the fire three years ago that wiped out the Hamilton block was discovered at about 11:40 Monday night in the outbuildings back of the Sharp Brothers Grocery Store and Meat Market, and the flames rapidly spread to the store building of the Sharp Brothers and the Hamilton and Smith building thru to the barn of D.C. Gill and the Horak building and the dwellings of Mrs. McCarley and also the dwelling on the Horak lot on the alley. All these buildings were destroyed except the Hamilton and Smith building, the walls of which are standing, but considerably damaged by the intense heat of the fire through which it passed. The occupants of the Horak building, The McArthur Telephone Exchange sustained a total loss of the Switch Board and all equipment, Dr, Paffenbarger Dental Office furniture and equipment, but saved his books and papers> Burris THOMPSON Barber sustained a total loss of his equipment, Mr. Horak saved a part of his furniture and other articles from his Tailor shop, residence and restaurant. In the Hamilton and Smith Store a part of the goods and equipment and fixtures were saved but considerable damage was done in moving them out and quite a loss was sustained by goods carried away from the piles in the street. County Superintendent of Schools M. S. Cox saved all his books, records and papers from his office on the second floor.

The articles that I have been submitting were copied a couple of years ago. In an earlier message I noted that microfilms of the papers can be obtained from the Ohio Historical Society through interlibrary loan. There is a small fee but it's a great way to get additional information (around $3). As I recall, the articles that I have been submitting were all on one roll of film and it covers just a few years. As I noted, I only copied parts of some of the pages. There is a lot more local news that I didn't copy. However, I thought it might help someone if I share what I do have. I have quite a few more that I am going to try to get submitted but they only cover a limited time frame and would be difficult for me to search for certain names. Someday, I hope to tear myself away from this computer and borrow some more films, or perhaps Ancestry.com will put the McArthur paper on their site and then we can just use their search engine. For now, I'll just keep sending what I have. ! Hope you find someone you know.

Hello- I'm doing research on my GGreat Grandmother Rosela "Amanda" Lee, who was born about 1857 in Ohio. I've located the census info below, and am very interested in the two LEE families listed. Even though the ages are a bit off, I think they are the same family. Would anyone have any other info on this family ?

Dear Beattie: You apparently have time to check out the McArthur papers. Do you have any papers for 1907-09. I am trying to find out what happened to my grandmother Lena Wilson McCafferty who married my grandfather Oct. 27, 1906. He was James Duffy McCafferty. My father was born May 18, 1907, and for some unexplained reason after his sister Marguerite was born Lena took my dad and his sister to the home of her Mom and dad. When she did this I do not know. But in the 1910 Census my dad and his sister and Lena Wilson were reported to be living with her Mom and dad, David and Mary Wilson. My dad and Marguerite were reported as Grand son and grand daughter. I wonder if the papers carried the date that my dad and his sister were born. Further if there is anything in the in the newspaper telling from court papers about these matters. My dad died without ever knowing what happened to his mother. James Duffy McCafferty my grandfather never responded to me or my first wife when asked. He ended up raising both children, though dad talked about being shuttled from relative to relative. Dad, James Arthur McCafferty, left for Columbus, Ohio to join his father probably in 1921 according to stories my father told me. If you have a search fee, let me know. Thanks for any consideration you can give me. Regards, Jim McCafferty, Fort Washington, MD 20744

DOC TIMMONS' HOME Every Lad and every Lassie, as well as the adults in our town know and welcome uncle "Doc" Timmons the one-armed man who for years in their season has supplied them with the best of water-melons and musk-melons from his own cultivation. We visited his home in Richland last week, and now we want to tell you something of the nice man and his family who brings to your door this succulent product of the melon-vine. Way down in Richland is his nice farm house, and productive lands, although Mr. Timmons has but one arm, having lost the other from an accidental gun shot wound in early years, yet, he does a lot of farm work although in the afternoon of life. When we reached his home the family had just finished supper,-- (now here is the ear marks of true hospitality) after the friendship greeting, the first words spoken were "have you been to supper?" We had not, but did not wish to put the family to extra bother, but in kindness they seated us to a splendid supper, and in a cordia! l way made us feel that the "welcome" was from the heart, and not feigned or for manner's sake. We must ask privlege to say that no table in the land is graced with nicer bread than Mrs. Timmons set before us, and the supper brought to our memory the lines "There's no place like home." Mr. Timmons home is presided over by his good wife, a lady of intelligence, and a good daughter. A son has recently come home from overseas, and this advent doubtless relieved the good mother of a burden of care and uneasiness which was hard to bear. We went to the parlor which contains a fine organ, and rendered--"Sonona", "Dance of the song birds," when the "Doc" said "one more" and we gave up the seat with "Speed the Plow." Now, dear friends you will better know uncle "Doc" when he brings you a nice melon, and with us be glad to know he has a nice family, and admirable home way down in Richland "Where the corn and mellons grow, and the birds keep singing all the day." Route 2 Cor. VINTON COUNTY FEDERATION OF CHRISTIAN CHURCHES A federation of the Christian churches of Vinton county has been formed for the purpose of employing an Evangelist who will give his whole attention to this one county instead of trying to cover a district of much larger area as heretofore. By this concentration of effort it is certain that much more satisfactory results will be obtained in this highly important work, and the people are taking hold of the idea with zeal and energy. With this end in view, which it is confidently believed will prove to be a great uplifting force, the following organization has been formed: Miles E. DAWSON, Secretary. Executive Committee: T. CASSELL, of Union, Frank ANDERSON, Ray; Frank CLARK, Eagle Chapel: W. H. TUCKER, Allensville; Mrs. J. W. DARBY, McArthur; Mrs. Harley TUCKER, Allensville. The last two are W.C.T.U. members."
