Kay, George Boyd - 1858

FIRE.-- A fire occurred on Christmas morning, about 12 ½ o’clock, at the residence of Geo B. Kay, dec’d., in Hopewell Tp., in this County. The family had retired, as usual, about ten o'clock on the night of the fire, and when discovered the kitchen was in flames.—

The family had scarcely time to make their escape. The floor fell in less than five minutes after the fire was discovered. All the household furniture, and all their clothing consumed. The family, consisting of twelve persons, and a neighbor's son, some of them young children and females, escaped with only their night clothes. They had to walk barefooted a quarter of a mile to the next neighbor's house. The loss is supposed to be about $4,000.
