Kuykendall Home
Destroyed By Fire
The home of Mfrs. R. E. Kuy
kendall, located at the Southern

jpletely destroyed by fire about 3
o’clock this afternoon. The house
was vacant at the time of the fire,

could locate a suitable water sup
ply that it could not be brought
under control. There was no in
surance coverage, according to a
member of the Kuykendall family.
