From the Sullivan County Democrat DOWN THE DECADES in an issue printed Tuesday March 13 2012 page 8A:
"1922 - Postmaster Charles Bergner of Callicoon was awakened at about 4 o'clock last Wednesday morning by the reflection of flames through his bedroom window. Awake, he smelled smoke and knew his own handsome dwelling was on fire. The flames were making headway in the bathroom. Seizing a fire extinguisher that had been in the house for 15 or more years, he made a desperate attack on the fire. The extinguisher worked and by the time Mrs. Bergner and their son, William, reached the scene, Mr Bergner had the flames subdued."
