The LeVan's Mishaps With Fire

Plymouth Mail , May 4, 1888 An abbreviated clipping of the Newburg happenings from May, 1888 shows not only the elk horn findings but the fire hazards known by the LeVan family. Note the difference in the spelling that the road by that name. Anyway, an infant of E. P. LeVan was burned on the hands after playing too close to a bonfire and falling in. Which is clearly the fault of the E. P. Levans! Also, another LeVan named J. A. was injured while fighting fire. The eternal flame was most assuredly part of their misfortune that week.
