You ain't kidding on the naming of the thread. The front of the building formerly known as York's was litterred all over Bridge Street when I was by-passed around Guyondotte the morning after the blast.
Plus, what kind of punitive damages is he going to have to pay for Elza C. Moore Hardware next door which was incenerated by the blast.

Who the hell didn't see that one coming?
It wasn't dynamite, though.
According to the paperwork, York created "a natural gas leak in his place of business." The indictment says the leak caused the building to explode.
It also states that a bunch of merchandise that wasn't in the explosion was written-up as damaged to the insurance company.

Those old TV spots that York's ran were quite memorable. "In beautiful downtown Guyandotte!"

..In debris filled downtown Guyandotte. Those that are familiar with the Logan area will appreciated that when Avmac Services had their offices in the area known as Cherry Tree we used "beautiful downtown Cherry Tree". Those familiar with the area will smell the irony here (or was that the smell coming from the strip club there?)
Titties and beer...thank God almighty for titties and beer!
