Reflections: Aprils of the past By Evelyn Long - Contributing Columnist Reading through some of the old newspapers I have in my possession I want to share some of the more interesting stories. For instance, in the April 18, 1901 edition of the Morrow County Independent, there is a front page story head lined “Two Fires in One Day.” The first was from a small blaze in the roof of the Sipe building on east Main street. Please note, the spelling in those days- the only word capitalized was the name of the street, “Main,” while east and street were not. The first alarm was from a small blaze in the roof of the Sipe building caused by a spark from a chimney. However, the second fire was “just at noon, and called people to a blaze that was more disastrous.” The barn on the old school house lot was completely destroyed and a horse, oil wagon, two sets of harness and seven chickens were burned.
