Five fire companies responded to 414 S. Main St. shortly after 1 p.m. Tuesday as smoke poured from the two story structure. Though the fire was quickly brought under control, the home — known locally as the Harvey P. Pruitt House, built in 1914 — suffered significant damage. Residents Julie and Henry Koenig were not home at the time of the fire.
“They don’t know yet if the house is salvageable,” said Linda Walls, Julie Koenig’s sister.
Walls said the family was devastated to lose two of their three cats in the fire. They’re also worried about the fate of the many family heirlooms in the home, which they’ve lived in for nearly 30 years, that were likely damaged in the fire.

No insurance?
Any real fire department would have made a big difference. While the Berlin farmen fight thier lawsuits, and Gee Williams, two thirds of the response was from other Departments further away. That's a fact. Great job Trimble's, it's all about you.

It's Farmin as in da Ghetto 'bury Farmin, not Farmen, but close.
5:48- farmen? If you're trying to use street slang, or redneck pronunciation, at least get it right! Fact? All your opinions are facts? You appear to not know the meaning of the word!
9:21 you seem to be offended. You mad?
