Hebron
While we sympathize with those
who lost so heavily in the recent fire
in Shepherdsville and regret to lose
the old landmarks, still we agree
with the writer who said “nothing
helps an old town so much as a first
class fire” and when a new Main
Street arises Phoenix-like from the
ashes of the old, why, all will realize
the fire as a blessing in disguise.
