HARTINGTON — During the electrical and rain storm Tuesday night, the old brewery building in St. Helena was struck by lightning and burned to the ground.
The fire lit up the heavens for miles around and could be plainly seen in Wynot seven miles away. The burning of this building removes one of the old landmarks of Cedar County.
This original brewery was built by a man by the name of Lamm some distance from where this building stood.
As near as this newspaper is able to determine, this building was erected by Anton Tielke over 30 years ago and later came into the possession of Joe Wrede, who operated it as a brewery until about two years ago.
