Originally published in The Star News, December 30, 1943

One of Medford’s worst residence fire loses in recent years occurred early Christmas morning, causing a loss estimated at from nine to ten thousand dollars.

The residence of Mrs. Mark O’Malley was damaged beyond repair and most of the contents went up in smoke.

Conrad Helminiak, department manager at Bootzin’s store, who lived in the upstairs apartment, estimated his loss at $3200. He had 1000 insurance.

Mrs. O’Malley had insurance of $4000, which is possibly two-thirds of her loss on building and contents.
