Page 14 The Battalion Tuesday, March 24, Community rebuilds after arson damage BELLEVILLE, Pa. (AP) - An Amish community hit by arsonist a week ago began putting itself back together Monday with an old-fashioned barn-raising. About 150 Amish showed up to help. Laborers worked in teams to build an L-shaped barn at the home of Samuel M. Yoder, one of six people who lost barns, cattle and horses during a two-hour ar son spree the morning of March 15. Women prepared meals in Yo der's house, which wasn't dam aged by the fire. "There's so much labor that wants to be donated that we can't use it all in one day," said Ivan Peachey of the Mennonite Disas ter Services, which is coordinat ing the reconstruction of all six barns. A relief fund holds nearly $180,000. Area merchants donated food and gasoline-powered saws. Trees were felled last week and area sawmills cut pieces to size. Several of Monday's workers, clad in black clothes and straw hats, traveled from Lancaster, Pennsylvania's best known Amish area. r Belleville is located about 100 miles northwest, where Amish-re lated tourism is practically nil. The workers met at 6:30 a.m. By midday, wooden grids cov ered half the barn. Two hours later, the corrugat ed tin roof sheltered most wo: ers from an occasional ^ squall. The site was surrounded: pickup trucks, forklifts and honi drawn buggies. No one has been arrestedi the arson spree, which, in; tion to destroying the six! damaged a seventh and a sck house. The fires killed 172 head; livestock. State police said Monday! no motive has been established.
