M. Spivey, the owner, had reported Tuesday that the house at 129 Dean St. was missing, but he said he hadn't checked up on it since early 1962. Neighbors said part of the house was destroyed by fire in March of 1962. One neighbor said that after the fire he saw people he didn't know carrying planks away, supposedly for firewood.
Another neighbor reported seeing a man last winter carry off a bathtub. Because the house wasn't stolen, at least all in one lump, police figure there was no use to hunt for every plank, nail and bathtub.
