ST. ANSGAR MAN BURNS TO DEATH IN TRAILER FIRE
St. Ansgar – Charley Everson, 75, burned to death in a fire in his trailer house in the north part of town about 11 p.m. Sunday.
The fire department was called to fire near the John Deere implement shop and it was a seething mass of flames when the firemen arrived. They succeeded in putting out the fire before the hose was destroyed but the heat was still so intense they could not get in for some minutes later.
When they got inside the charred remains of the aged man were found. Officers thought he was overcome by gas and was unable to escape before the flames reached him.
Mr. Everson lived alone. He is survived by two daughters and two sons.
