FIFTY YEARS AGO: The interior of Shiloh Baptist Church on Madison Ave. in Campbell was heavily damaged by a fire that swept through the sanctuary just 45 minutes before Sunday school classes were scheduled to begin Feb. 5, 1956. Fire Chief Julius Torok estimated damage at $35,000 and said the fire apparently started in an overheated furnace. Fire pierced the roof in several places, but the four brick walls remained standing. New pews had been installed in the church the night before, the final part of an extensive remodeling project.
