In 1995, they moved from their downtown location to a new building on SR-73 on the north side of town. Following are some clippings and history about the family. Thanks to Barbara Johnson Mee and Courtney Streber Hoak for some of the information.<br />
<br />
In 1930 Gleason & Jane Turner Streber lived with Jane's parents in Liberty Township, Highland County. The 1930 Census also states that they both worked in a grocery store, Gleason as manager and Jane as a Sales Lady <i>[1]</i>. Gleason was born in 1903, Jane in 1905.<br />
<br />
The Streber family moved to the New Vienna area when Gleason became manager of a Kroger's market in New Vienna. In 1929 Kroger's decided to focus on larger markets and the store in New Vienna was no longer associated with the Kroger Company. According to the clipping scanned below, Gleason became an independent proprietor in 1932, associated with "Super Valu" distributor. He was the owner/operator of the store in New Vienna from 1931-1967 when he retired <i>[2] </i>and Bob took over the management of the store.<br />
<br />
Gleason died of a heart attack in October 1974. Jane, a long time Sunday School teacher at the Methodist Church, died in 1976. Bob, Jane and Gleason's oldest son, managed the store after the retirement of his father in 1967.<br />
<br />
When Robert Edwin "Bob" Streber was born on December 8, 1930, in Hillsboro, Ohio, his father, Gleason, was 27 and his mother, Mildred "Jane", was 25. He married Joellen Rulon on September 6, 1948, in Greenup County, Kentucky. He died on April 2, 2002, in New Vienna, Ohio, at the age of 71, and was buried there. Both Bob and Joellen were 1948 graduates of New Vienna High School. They were the parents of Robyn, Steven, Jeffrey, Gregory & Gretchen. Joellen died in 1981 and Bob in 2002. They have an impressive monument/memorial at the IOOF Cemetery in New Vienna <i>[3]</i>.<br />

<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">From one chapter to another</span></b></div>
<b>by Daniel Nixon</b>, <span style="font-size: x-small;">City Editor</span><br />
<br />
NEW VIENNA –– The floor needs repair but the foundation is firm as Streber's Market prepares for some major changes.<br />
<br />
For starters, second generation store owner Robert Streber marked the last sale in the old store recently as his two sons, Greg and Steve, put the finishing touches on the family's new 6,500-square-foot store on the north edge of town off SR-73.<br />
<br />
Soon they will be opening their newly built combination convenience and grocery store.<br />
<br />
On Saturday, the family closed permanently its downtown village grocery, in business there for over 60 years, as Streber, 64, looks to begin –– well, not exactly retirement. "Semi-retirement," he said.<br />
<br />
The store, formerly a Kroger's, had been managed by Streber's father, Gleason, for Kroger who had sent him to New Vienna. Kroger closed it in the late 1920s as being in too small a town.<br />
<br />
A few years later Xenia-based food distributor Eavey, later becoming Super Valu, approached Gleason about reopening the store, said Streber. His father thought Eavey meant for him to just manage the store for them, said Streber. No, they wanted him to be an independent proprietor.<br />
<br />
That was in 1932, as the country slipped deeper into the Great Depression.<br />
<br />
He didn't even have enough money for the cash register on opening day." said Streber. The Eavey representative pulled $25 from his pocket as a loan for the till. "It was really started on a shoestring," said Streber.<br />
<br />
Other than a brief period farming, Streber's involvement with the store has been constant since 1950. <br />
<br />
His late wife, Joellen, once chided him, "who are you married to, me or the store," said Streber grinning. "I guess I was married to both."<br />
<br />
Memories go back father: Falling asleep on the bread shelves at 2 years old with his mother, Jane. "My first job was passing out handbills door-to-door when I was 5 for 25 cents a week," he said.<br />
<br />
Streber's may sell food, but its stock-in-trade over the years has been people.<br />
<br />
A lot of, lot of, lot of memories," said Streber, standing at the back of the long, narrow store as the last customers mad their way to the cash register.<br />
<br />
The thing I enjoy the most is talking to the older people. They can tell you a lot of things that happened in the town," he said.<br />
<br />
Though government regulations and changing times have made it more difficult to hire good, young help for the store, offering that first job has been another source of satisfaction over the years, he said.<br />
<br />
"It allows them to earn some money when they're young, teaches them responsibility." How many have worked there? "Oh, I couldn't name them, "he said.<br />
<br />
The two things the store has been blessed with, he said, have been loyal customers and good help. <br />
<br />
"I guess the first thing you thank is the good Lord, my folks for starting it and my wife for sticking by while we developed."<br />

Streber's Market and Gas Station, located on Route 73 N. has its roots in New Vienna dating back 84 years ago. Gleason Streber, the man who started it all, was born in 1903, the son of Robert and Margaret Vanzant Streber. Gleason married Jane Turner Streber on Aug. 12, 1929. They had 4 children; Robert, Carey (Bo), John and Walter. In his early years Gleason worked for the Kroger's Co. and in 1931 opened his own grocery store in NV.<br />
<br />
Thanks go to Courtney Streber Hoak, great granddaughter of Gleason Streber, for sharing the 1st photo and some information with me! In the photo Gleason and some of his staff are pictured outside of the original store which was located in the very center of NV. Courtney related to me that the photo was probably taken in 1934 according to the movie poster displayed in the window depicting a movie being shown in that year. Names written on the back of the photo were, L to R: Gleason Streber, Ed Turner, Martha Bernard, Jane Streber, and Archie Rawlinson.<br />
<br />
Gleason, Jane and their family were the Strebers I knew when I lived in NV. What came as a surprise to me was that when the photo was taken, Martha Bernard, the lady who eventually opened a Beauty Shop in NV worked at the grocery back then. I had never heard that fact before seeing her in the photo and named on the back of the picture. (You learn something new everyday as is said). Martha eventually moved her Beauty Shop to her home located on Route 28 W.<br />
<br />
In the 1960's Gleason retired to his farm located on Bernard Road and the Streber family continues to operate Streber's Market to this day.<br />

<br />
The 2nd photo, taken Oct. 2015, is of the space located in the very heart of NV where the original grocery was located. The building now sets empty, but my goodness, the memories it contains!<br />
The 3rd photo is of the present day grocery and gas station which is located in the center of a field where the farm I once lived on was located. Back then I would never imagined the farm being gone or that Streber's Market would someday be located there.......Time changes everything!!!<br />
Please add any additional information you may have about Streber's Market. Thank you.<br />

In 1963 New Vienna schools consolidated with Simon Kenton. In 1964 the school name was changed to New Kenton. In 1965 Sabina schools consolidated with New Kenton as described in the article and transcription that follow.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wilmington News-Journal, 4 May 1965, p.1-2</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">On Request, County Board Joins Sabina, New Kenton</span></b></div>
<div>
<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Upon request of Sabina and New Kenton local boards, the Clinton County Board of Education merged the two school districts at a special meeting Monday night.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">The requests were in the form of resolutions asking that the county board consolidate the two districts. Sabina's resolution was signed by four of the five local board members Monday and New Kenton's resolution, made April 30, was the result of a unanimous vote of the five local members.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><b>The resolution of consolidation by the county board was moved by Stanley Bernard, seconded by Carl West, and unanimously approved by the board.</b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">The action followed n agreement by the two local boards in a discussion session March 12 at which it was decided that if a merger of the two districts takes place, such union should be formed by request of the two boards, asking that the county board consolidate the territories.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">The consolidated district would include 1825 pupils, with 531 in high school. This compares to a total of 1677 for Blanchester (443 in high school) and 1481 for Clinton-Massie (440 in high school). The combined Sabina-New Kenton area has a valuation of $21.7 million for tax purposes. The area has 133 square miles.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">The study initiated at the request of the two local boards March 12 outlined transportation proposals: Using Lees Creek village as approximate center (Reesville, kindergarten through sixth grade; New Vienna, kindergarten through ninth grade; Sabina, kindergarten through ninth grade). Many of the village youngsters of Sabina and New Vienna can continue to walk to school. From Sabina, approximately 145 to 150 pupils in grades 10-11-12 would be transported to the high school center over a short distance of seven miles in 15 minutes. The study estimates that buildings would be sufficient for projected enrollment over the next three to four years.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Contracts of all currently employed teachers (78 in the two districts) would be binding on the newly created board of education. "All teachers are assured of a position in accordance with their field of certification," the report compiled March 12 said.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">It is suggested that athletics include two junior high and freshmen teams, one of each at Sabina and New Vienna. Basketball could be played at New Vienna gymnasium and football – which would allow the consolidated district to enter an athletic league – could be played at Sabina, using existing lighting facilities.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">The proposed consolidation would lose 1.1 mills of tax rate because of adjustments required by law when districts are reorganized, and the district would probably have to vote this millage to regain present income.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">The Sabina board, faced with problems of financing repairs, the need to employ a new administrator, and plans to upgrade school curriculum to meet minimum standards, has spent several months of study, including meetings with the county board, New Kenton board and Miami Trace board of education, as well as a public meeting for Sabina patrons where the board outlined some of its findings.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Since these sessions, both the Fayette County Board of Education and Miami Trace Board of Education have taken a stand that heavy enrollment at Miami Trace high school would make it inadvisable to consider addition of Sabina School District. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">The consolidation of Sabina and New Kenton becomes effective June 2, unless a petition is filed with the Clinton County Board of elections carrying valid signatures that represent a number equal to 35 per cent of the qualified electors of the proposed district who voted in the last general election. By unofficial estimate between 900 and 1,000 valid signatures would be required.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">If such a petition is received and found to be valid by the county board of elections, the county board of education then certifies the question to a vote, probably at the November general election.</span></div>

The parishioners voted to have the building demolished in order to preserve the memory of the building in a sacred and good condition. The Archdiocese, owner of the property, then sold the lot at the corner of Nordyke Road and Second Ave. The Catholic Telegraph, in which this article appeared, is the monthly newspaper of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati.

ST. MARTIN DEANERY –– On Sept. 14, the Feast of the Exaltation of the Cross, Archbishop Daniel E. Pilarczyk celebrated the closing Mass at St. Michael Church, New Vienna. During his homily he said:<br />
<br />
"As we worship together to mark the closing of this parish that has been so dear to so many, God invites us to remember that sorrow and suffering are never the last words. God always has something better in store for us.<br />
<br />
When the church invites us to celebrate the triumph of the cross of Christ she also invites us to look forward to the triumph of all the crosses of those who follow him."Catherine Uible Morganhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02229128004745240802noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2956822733456620707.post-13575555368935835222014-09-17T14:47:00.000-07:002014-09-17T14:47:10.733-07:00St. Michael Catholic Church - HistoryPhotocopy courtesy of Margaret Rachford Dean from an unknown source, c1994, thought to have been written by the priest at that time, Father Ron Cooper.

<b>A HISTORICAL SKETCH</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>ST. MICHAEL CHURCH</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>NEW VIENNA, OHIO</b></div>
<br />
The Village of New Vienna was laid out in 1827 by Mr. Thomas Hussey. It is located in Clinton County beginning at the western boundary of Highland County.<br />
<br />
The first Catholic pioneer in Clinton County settled near Cuba in 1807. The first Mass was not said in the county until 1852. This event took place in Wilmington, 10 miles north of New Vienna. Father Thomas Blake said the first Mass in the home of Jerry Coakley on Sugartree Street.<br />
<br />
Patrick Toohey was probably the first Catholic, who with his family settled in New Vienna in the winter of 1854. The first Mass in the village was celebrated in Mr. Toohey's house in the spring of 1855 by visiting priests from Fayetteville, no doubt Father Thomas Daily and Father John B. O'Donoghue. They continued to say Mass in his house until better accommodations were secured.<br />
<br />
During this era there was a bitter prejudice against Catholics; however, those early Catholic settlers remained steadfast in their faith. Today there is marked improvement in the feeling toward Catholics.<br />
<br />
After Hillsboro, 12 miles to the south, had a resident pastor in 1854, New Vienna was attended by the pastor of St. Mary's Church there. In 1874 the Catholics began taking steps to build a church and for that purpose purchased the property where the old school house used to stand (present site of St. Michael) for $500.00. It was in 1874 that St. Michael Church was established. During the two following years Mass was celebrated in this house.<br />
<br />
In the summer of 1876, Father John B. O'Donoghue, pastor of St. Mary's Church, Hillsboro, began construction of the present church building which is where the old school house stood. In the same year the cornerstone was laid and the church dedicated by Archbishop John B. Purcell of Cincinnati. The cost of the building was about $1,000.00 At this time there were about ten Catholic families in New Vienna.<br />
<br />
In 1899 Father Bernard Feeney was appointed the first resident pastor of St. Benignus Parish in Greenfield, Ohio, and St. Michael Church was assigned to him as a Mission. The pastors of St. Mary's in Hillsboro had taken care of the Catholics in New Vienna for 45 years. However, Father Feeney remained for only a few months, and Father A.F. Sourd was appointed pastor of St. Benignus. In addition to St. Michael, New Vienna, he also took care of St. Joseph Church, Frankfort <i>[Ross County]</i>; and St. Mary Church, Waverly.<br />
<br />
In 1905 Mrs. Ada Pemberton established Sunday School classes and instructed the children from New Vienna. During the pastorate of Father John M. Sailer, a statue of St. Michael was purchased, and electric lights were installed. Catechism was taught at 7:30 a.m. on the fourth Sunday of each month, and a High Mass and Sermon followed at 8:30. There was also a Mass offered on the second Tuesday of each moth at 8:00 a.m. the Higgins family donated beautiful ciborium in memory of the parents James and Mary Higgins, in 1906. Mr. Higgins carved the beautiful frames still being used in our Stations of the Cross.<br />
<br />
The Christmas Mass was dropped in 1831, and the Tuesday Mass followed in 1935. From this time on, Mass was offered on the last Sunday of the month only, except during the pastorate of Father John Anthony and Father Leo Herlihy. Father Edward Lawler resumed the monthly Sunday Masses and began the offering of an evening Mass on holy days, except Christmas.<br />
<br />
The Church was papered in 1929, and a new carpet placed in the sanctuary; in the same year a new roof was put on the church. In 1946 the church was completely renovated, inside and outside, during the pastorate of Father Edwin Dittman. Brother Bertrand Bailey, O.P., who lived with Archbishop McNicholas and was brought to Cincinnati in 1925, built a vestibule onto the church and erected a celtic cross over the church. He also painted the church and installed new electrical fixtures which are still being used. The floors were refinished, a canopy erected over the altar, and red drapes placed behind the altar. Archbishop McNicholas donated the crucifix that hung over the altar (it is now in the priests's sacristy). Father Dittman replaced the old pot-belly stove which stood in the middle of the church with an oil heater located in the rear of the church near where the confessional now stands. He also had the grounds landscaped and placed shrubbery around in front of the church. Miss Margaret Higgins was most generous in her help to Father Dittman. In 1947 the statues of the Blessed Virgin and St. Joseph were purchased, as well as the new tabernacle which now rests on the altar.<br />
<br />
During the pastorate of Father Edward Lawler a sign was erected toward the front of the church grounds giving the time of the Mass (he changed the time to 11:30 on the last Sunday of the month and 8:00 p.m. on holy days). In 1957 he had the outside of the Church painted and the roof was also repaired. The following year rubber cushions were installed on the kneelers and at the Communion rail. The Fourth Degree Knights of Columbus from Hamilton donated the chalice we now use in honor of Msgr. McNary, former pastor of Holy Trinity Church, Middletown.<br />
<br />
Except for the catechism classes conducted by Mrs. Ada Pemberton from 1905 to 1907, parents instructed their children. In 1941 the children in New Vienna went to Hillsboro where they were instructed by the Ursuline Nuns from Brown County. In 1943 they went to St. Columbkille, Wilmington, where they were taken care of until the fall of 1962. For the first time in the 107 years of Catholicity in New Vienna, and the 86 years since the Church of St. Michael was erected, weekly catechism classes were conducted by two Sisters from Our Lady of Victory Missionary Sisters living at St. Colman Convent, Washington Court House. During the month of June the Sisters conducted a daily summer school of religion five days a week.<br />
<br />
Beginning with the first Sunday in June, 1962, Mass was offered each Sunday at 9:00 a.m. and continues on this schedule. The holy day evening Mass remains at 8:00 p.m. and on the First Friday of each month. Mass is offered on Christmas, and thanks to Mr. Anthony Peters we have a beautiful Crib. Services are held during Lent consisting of the Rosary and Way of the Cross. During Holy Week the Holy Thursday and Holy Saturday ceremonies are carried out; on Good Friday the Way of the Cross and sermon take place. First Communion and May Crowning take place on Mother's Day.<br />
<br />
During the fall of 1962 and through the spring of 1963, the whole interior of the church was remodeled. The ceiling was lowered about 14 inches with acoustic tile blocks, wood panels (light above and dark below) covered the walls, and rubber tile was put on the floor. Father Joseph V. Urbain, Pastor of St. Columban Church, Loveland, offered us the pews, Communion rail, sanctuary carpeting, credence table, large crucifix, confessional, sacristy cabinet, pamphlet rack, and bulletin board from his old church. A generous benefactor in Greenfield donated a gas furnace and had it installed in the boys' sacristy. The oil stove was taken away and Joe Derivan no longer had to haul the oil and light up each time Mass was offered!<br />
<br />
A very charitable man from Dayton, 78-year-old Anthony J. Peters, came to live with Father Lay in Greenfield so that he could engineer the remodeling work simply 'for the love of God." Tony had retired from his occupation as a stripe painter of horse-drawn wagons, and later on the older model automobiles, and he was quite handy as a carpenter. He began his work of remodeling in the old church in Loveland - dismantling the pews and communion rail, the confessional and carpeting - then cutting the rail and pews to the correct size. Our men transported these to New Vienna and were most helpful in the initial installation; Tony put the finishing touches to the job! Lawrence Germann, Bob Dean, and Bill Baker painted the wood tim in Church and along the windows. Two of our women, and a Quaker acquaintance, fixed the drapes. Lou and Ed Chandler donated and poured the spacious concrete walk from the road to the Church after it had been prepared by Lawrence Germann, Harold Wallen, and Bill Baker. The shrubbery in front of the church was donated and planted by Tom Brumley. Everyone, child and adult alike, cooperated beautifully throughout we would be remiss if we didn't mention the numerous generous contributions by Mrs. Marjorie Sullivan. The only part of the renovation done by a paid contractor was performed by Mr. Robert Birkhimer, Greenfield, at a very nominal cost. Bob, his son Tom, and our own Harold Wallen put in the ceiling, the wood paneling, and the tile on the floor. They did a beautiful job! Indeed, St. Michael has obtained the blessing of God for us in New Vienna. We look forward now to adding a room for catechists and two lavatories!<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>NEW VIENNA –– </b>This village was rocked by several explosions early today that ripped the inside of three buildings causing extensive damage.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
An official at the scene said the explosions were apparently the result of gasoline spilled from a tank truck at the back of the Marathon Station, entering sewage lines.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
New Vienna school, located five blocks from the explosions, was evacuated and a two block area around the explosion was sealed off.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The first explosion, which occurred at 8:45 a.m. at the Monarch Bar & Grill, owned by Dwayne Blackburn, totally destroyed the inside of the building. The Monarch is two buildings down from the Marathon station.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
A building owned by Lloyd Duff, on Main St. opposite the Monarch, received major damage from an explosion. The back side of the house appeared to be shaken loose.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
A home owned by Richard Curtis and rented by Mrs. Sadie Garen on West St., about a block away from the Marathon Station, also received heavy damage from an explosion.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Mrs. Garen said, "I was sitting on the couch and my son came to me and said he smelled gas. I said I did too and checked the kitchen stove, then looked out the front window, and saw fire coming out of the sewer hole." The sewer is right in front of Mrs. Garen's front door.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Mrs. Garen said she grabbed her four-year-old son and 18-month-old baby and ran out the back door. As she was leaving she said she heard her "furnace blow."</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Also she said that fire was coming out of a sewer, in back of the Curtis property, "as high as this ceiling." Mrs. Garen went to a friend's house on Main St., where she and her children spent the morning.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The State Fire Marshal's office, the New Vienna and Wilmington Fire Departments, the Sheriff's Department and the New Vienna Police Department were on the scene.</div>

<br />
NEW VIENNA, OHIO – A series of five blasts, apparently caused by explosing <i>[sic]</i> gasoline in a storm sewer, rocked this village at about 8:45 a.m. Monday, destroying a bar and grill and knocking two homes from their foundations.<br />
<br />
No one was injured in the blast, which occurred as village firemen were flushing gasoline from an overfilled tanker truck at the Mongold's Oil Co. bulk plant.<br />
<br />
State Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) officials, firemen, life squad members, and the state fire marshal's office remained at the scene late Monday trying to determine if the area was safe and what sparked the thunderous explosion.<br />
<br />
Four families were known to have been evacuated from the area and told not to return Monday, and natural gas all over the area had been temporarily shut off to guard against further explosions. <i>[latter part of sentence not true according to note on the clipping.]</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
About 75% of the natural gas service was restored to this community of 900 some 60 miles northeast of Cincinnati late Monday night, firemen reported.<br />
<br />
The elementary-junior high school building in town as also evacuated.<br />
<br />
Hardest hit was the Monarch Bar and Grill on Main Street near the bulk oil plant.<br />
<br />
An explosion in the storm sewer under the building blew out the plate glass windows and destroyed the interior of the building, although the brick structure stayed erect. No one was in the building at the time. There was no fire damage to the building, and firemen said the explosions did not appear to have caused any fire damage anywhere.<br />
<br />
A frame dwelling belonging to Della Duff across Main Street from the Monarch was knocked off its foundations, but two men who live in the house were not at home. A third home nearby on a side street was also knocked off its foundation but no one was home.<br />
<br />
Several walls in the Duff home were reported unsteady.<br />
<br />
Assistant Fire Chief William Mahanes estimated there were five explosions, almost in a continuous series, as firemen hosed down spilled gasoline from the oil plant into the storm sewer.<br />
<br />
He theorized that gas fumes might have built up in the storm sewer, and that a furnace spark might have ignited them. There was no estimate of damage.<br />
<br />
An EPA response team was testing the area for more gas fumes, and it was hoped a determination could be made before midnight as to whether the area was safe.<br />
<br />
The Mongold plant was not damaged. One observer noted that the oil plant sits atop a hill <i>[a hill?!?], </i>and all the buildings being rocks by explosions were downhill and in "valleys."<br />
<br />
Firemen indicated that flushing gasoline into the storm sewer was a standard procedure. Charles Knauff, owner of the oil company, said he had three trucks parked at the plant at the time, and that all were stationary. He had no other comment.<br />
<br />
Wilmington fire department also responded to the scene, which was roped off and evacuated.<br />
