Title A name given to the resource Hall & Eckert Lumber Yard fire 1908 Description An account of the resource One of the most stubborn fires ever tackled by the local department occurred on the morning of Friday, April 17, 1905, when incendiaries touched off a blaze at the Hall & Eckert lumber yard, bounded by the railroad, East Judd and Madison streets. At about 3 o'clock that morning fire was discovered coming from the lumber piles by Volney S. Brown and William Gorham, who were the first on the ground, noticing a stranger leaving the yards a short time before. The department struggled with this stubborn blaze all day before subduing it about evening. Gus Vogel and Fred Kimberly, nightwatches, were also soon on the ground and maintained vigilance with other officers until the entire establishment been destroyed, along with the residence occupied by John E. Cunningham, contractor, who happened to carry $800 insurance on his tools and equipment, but there was said to have been no insurance on the lumber yard stock.

All, or nearly all, of the buildings have been demolished. [Woodstock Sentinel April 23, 1908] Although the photographer is unknown, the style is that of Gus Persson, including the crispness of the print. In an undated clipping from the Woodstock Independent, Jim Keefe identified the large white house as the Ellsworth House and the taller building to the left of it as the Ellsworth Machine Shop. Both buildings were on Church St., identified as E. Washington in the March 6,1902 Woodstock Sentinel article. The Ellsworth home was the scene of the murder of B. F. Ellsworth, his wife Alice Ellsworth, and their "roomer" Amos Anderson on Feb. 26, 1902. The son, Earl Ellsworth reported the murder, claiming that his father shot the roomer and his mother. Eventually, the son admitted to shooting his father and Amos Anderson and was sentenced to life in prison with one day of solitary confinement each year.
