The White Rabbit Antique Mall in downtown Pinckneyville has been destroyed in a Thursday night fire.
The fire quickly moved through the building and broke through the roof of the building across the street from the fire department.
The 30 below wind chill values brought additional challenges in dealing with freezing water in fighting the fire.
At first, there was concern about the fire spreading to other buildings, but firemen kept the fire confined to the one structure.
DuQuoin, Nashville, and Tamaroa Fire Departments provided mutual aid.
