Emma Lena Smith's home, which she shared with her husband, Andrew, burned down. They stayed with her daughter and son-in-law until they were able to rent a house on Garrison Ave. They moved multiple times in 1935. Their neighbors and friends provided many items to help replace what was destroyed in the fire. Andrew at this point in time was employed at the plant in town. He also did odd jobs for others in the community.
