Funeral services were held Saturday afternoon at the Rohrer funeral home in New Paris for Mrs. Gladys Treese, 51, who was fatally burned in the fire which razed the I.G.A. Food store in Goshen, early Thanksgiving morning and damaged other adjoining business places. Fire loss was estimated at $50,000. The Tresses, residing in an apartment at 128 ½ North Main street, discovered the fire, believed to have started in the heating plant of the Goshen Bowling alley, located over Rimpler’s tavern, at 130 North Main street. Mr. and Mrs. Treese were injured as they started down the steps from their apartment to the street, the woman carrying a dog and an armful of clothing.
