[WGN 15-54-01]

September 5, 2003 - Sad news again. Just learned that the Delta Covered Bridge in Keokuk County, Iowa was arsoned on Wednesday night about 8:30 p.m. Ironically or perhaps intentionally, the bridge was arsoned exactly to the day that the Cedar Bridge was arsoned in Madison County a year earlier.

For more info go to: http://www.theiowachannel.com/. You can view some photos of the burned bridge there.

Sincerely,
Tomas E. Walczak

[The 76-foot Delta covered bridge was built in 1869 using a Burr truss to cross the North Skunk River at Delta, Ia. - Ed.]
