Then a power line decided to part sections, und it did at the corner of Main and Fifth streets and incidentally. one loose end hit a tree and caused it to smoulder until doused by the rain. The swaying power line caus- ed several flashes. The line was repaired in quick order by Homer Nerdling and Herman Porter.
