Papa's Watering Hole Burns

According to a story in The Bahama Journal, Ernest Hemingway's preferred bar in Bimini, The Compleat Angler, and the adjacent hotel that served as the author's home from 1935 to '37, were destroyed in a fire a couple weeks ago.

Also lost was a collection of Hemingway memorabilia archived in the bar's museum.
