Selma Dollar Times August 7, 1873
On the night of the 25th inst., Harris Hannah, Esq., had his premises laid waste 
by fire. The fire originated in the dry boards on the roof of the dwelling, which 
was falling in before it was discovered. The family, all but Mrs. H. and the 
smallest of the children were at preaching some two miles from home, but Mrs. 
Hannah, awakening, like a true heroine, set to work to save what she could from 
the consuming flames, but the fire had got such a start that she only had time to 
remove her sewing machine and a few of the bed clothing. The wheat bin, which set 
near the house, and which contained the whole of the wheat crop, caught on fire 
and was burned. Ashland Times.
