This was a three-alarm fire on July 28, 1958 that started on the second floor of 38 N. Court Street. At that time, there was a business there called, “Old Barn.”

Seven firemen were sent to the hospital after being overcome by the fumes and smoke. Businesses that were heat and smoke damaged were: Tatum’s Seafood Market, owned by Gus Tatum; Tom’s Ready to Wear, owned by T. J. Clark; American Hat Company, owned by Zack N. Azar; and the Montgomery Cash Store, owned by Nathan Kartus.
