       1887-Box 51 at Cameron and Herr Streets was turned in ten
       minutes to one in the morning.   A frame stable owned and
       operated by George Reading on Cumberland St. near 11th(Cameron)
       was fully involved and a total loss.  One horse, harness and a
       quantity of feed were destroyed with a loss of $200.  The
       unpaved streets were very muddy do to spring rains slowing the
       apparatus response considerably.  The Citizen Engine No. 3 was
       the only company able to render any appreciable service.
