Bad Luck Continues

Wheeler Wilh
Dame Fortune must have for
gotten to smile on Richard
Wheeler
tor
the past several
months.
At that time, his wife and
family left Caldwell to make
their future home in New Mexico
due to health reasons.
Wheeler, a bookkeeper at the
Moscrip Mining Corp., Belle Val
ley, finally sold his home in
Caldwell to. Junior Dimmerling
and most of his household goods
at a sacrifice.
Word has now been received
by friends in Caldwell that
enroute to New Mexico to join
his family temporarily, he lost
most of his remaining household
goods in a fire. It is believed the
trailer load of furniture caught
fire from a tossed cigarette.
The blaze also damaged the
two rear tires on his automobile.
