From the Logansport Daily Journal page 3 dated Aug. 27, 1882:

All the preliminaries for the extension of the Logansport branch of the Vandalia railway to Lake Michigan have been satisfactorily adjusted, and upon compliiance with a few easy conditions the contact will be closed, and the work will be commenced and pushed to completion.

Readers of the Journal are familiar with the route of this line to Marmont (Maxinkuckee), and will have no difficulty in following it to South Bend and the lake...
With these advantages before them, our citizens are asked to consider one of the conditions above named, which condition is that the right of way shall be furnished free to the new line thorugh our county. The estimated cost of this right of way is from $7,000 to $10,000 and it is proposed to raise the amount by subscription. A consideraable portion of this subscription has already been secured, and a committee appointed for that purpose will make an effort to raise the remainder during the present week...

Fire Damage Heavy As Lightning Hits Home On South Shore Drive
Heavy fire damage res ulted last Friday night when lightning struck the one-story stone and frame home of Mrs. Lelia Powell Ganber at 394 South Shore Drive.

Fire Chief Dave Burns said his men answered the alarm at about 11:15 p.m. Friday, and were at the scene for about two hours. He said the interior of the home was virtually gutted, and there was additional heavy damage to furnishings and antiques. Mrs. Garber, a dramatics interpreter, also lost valuable program material and books.

Mrs. Garber said she was watching television when a crash of thunder and lightning came, and the lights went out. Almost immediately, she said flames appeared at the ceiling, indicating the attic was a fire. She rushed next door to the H. L. Rector home and sounded the alarm.

The damage, which was partially covered by insurance, included severe damage to the ceilings and attic , and demolished windows and screens. - THURSDAY, July 22, 1965
