Two blocks of buildings com
prising the business section of
I Flat, in the Iditarod district,
were wiped out by fire April
6. The fire started in a resi
: dence and spread rapidly to
adjoining buildings, the facili
ties for combatting the flames
being such that it was imposs
ible to check the blaze. In a
short time two whole blocks,
constituting the main part of
the town were in flames,
j The destruction included the
S camp’s two grocery stores, the
sole restaurant, laundry and
pool room. The stores carried

As a result of the rescue of the
groceries, the camp will have
plenty of food until the open
ing of navigation.
