Perry County Democrat (New Bloomfield,
Pa.)
February 14, 1883
The Milltown, Spring township, school house narrowly escaped destruction by fire
on Monday morning of last week. When Miss Showalter, the teacher, opened
the door she found the room full of smoke, the floor burned through, the stove
tumbled over and the chimney down. The fire was soon extinguished.
It is thought that some persons had been in the room during the night who had no
business there.
