The Soperton Guano Plant was destroyed by an arsonist, beginning at 12:30 a.m. Monday. The fired drifted toward Main Street, and Treutlen Upholstery was unharmed. Clayton Stephens said "Losing a landmark is a lot like losing a friend. It just takes away from you that can never be replaced." Within a few minutes of finding the fire, word came that the Fowler warehouse on the creek side of East Louisiana Avenue was on fire, too. The larger cotton warehouse (Soperton Concrete's tower 2010) was destroyed by fire earlier in 1985.
The Treutlen-Wheeler landfill got a $50,000 grant.
