LR William “Frencny” Denomey, 59, |longtime resident of the Douglas Island shore a mile north of the | bridge, lost his home and all his possessions today in a fire which destroyed his log cabin while he was in Juneau. A fire left in the kitchen stove have ignited the large cabin, which had a shingle roof. The fire was first reported by Mrs. Lynn Gieger, who lives on the Juneau side of the Channel opposite Denomey's place. She notified Mrs, Harry Watson who telephoned to Juneau for help. Four Row Across Meanwhile Victor Tronson rowed across to the Island with th oys, Sherwood Jones, Jim Kal and David Kahn. Because of the heat they were unable to enter the cabin, but determined by looking through a window that no one was in the house. They then saved some halibut gear, tools, a slicker and pair of rubber boots from an ad- joining shed. Deputy William Markle walked to the burning cabin from the Douglas bridge. Arriving at 11:30, he found the fire roaring through the dry structure. As the tide was out at the time, it was difficult to bring | water to fight the fire and the place was soon completely burned. Owner In Town Denomey who was in Juneau shop- ping and outfitting to go trollng, reached his place at about 1:30 this afternoon. He said he had $104 in cash in the house. The $100, which was in currency, he gave up for lost, but he remained at the site of the fire, hoping to recover the four sil- ver dollars, As trees adjoining the house were ignited by the flames, the Forest Service was notified. .
