Kintzele, John (Fire scare - 13 MAY 1917)

While starting his big Overland car on his farm north of here (Granton, Clark Co., Wis.) for the first time this season last Sunday morning, John Kintzele did not discover a short circuit or disconnected live wire in his batteries, and leaving the car her went to the shed for gasoline, when upon his return a few minutes later he found the car in flames. A fire extinguisher hastily applied readily subdued the flames before the gasoline tank exploded or the car was burned beyond repair.
