Fire Threatens Pitney
House
.![]()
It was an event that affected many Junction City residents who have been donating their materials and labor to restore the old home bequethed to the Historical Society by Mary Pitney's estate. Only last week, they had moved Junction City's newly-discovered first prison to a location behind the house. The prison is safe, and was untouched by the fire. According to Junction City fire chief Dave Harlacher, the damage will be minimal, and result mostly in replacing some inner walls and structural beams in the roof. Water damage was kept to a minimum as several firemen carried out furniture from the upstairs. |
