No other persons were injured. Flames were so intense, it was said, that rescue was impossible. Fayetteville firemen were called to prevent the spread of the fire to other trailers. Furr’s body was taken from the ruins when the blaze was finally extinguished. The remains will be taken to Albemarle tomorrow for burial. He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles C. Furr, of Oakboro. Surviving are his wife, Mrs. Bessie Barbee Furr; his mother, six children, Mrs. Margaret Rogers, J.
