4 Card to the Public.
Thru SHREvEPoRr FIRE COMPANY having disbanded
We theundersigned committee, have been appointed
Dpesent to the public the reasons which have in
duoed US to do so.
We have not met with that encouragement and
oa0lenance from amaority of the citizens of Shreye
port which are entitled to receive, in volunteering
serVces protect our city from the ravages of fire
Thelnsurance company never assisted us, although
using every eXerton to secure them from loss
and give permanency and stability to that moned
institution. Without good Fire Company there is
security against fire, and the insurance offices are
left to the mercy of that devourng element
esignally failed in obtaininga charter from the
legislature of State, without one reason for deny
lg Us that right
We could not obtain from the city authorities al
GlgiHeAouse, or even suitable place for keeping
heengne and hose.
No place for holding our meetings was indicated
and We were compelled to assemble at the court
house, or to rely upon the courtesy Of friend whC
permitted US to meet in his Office
We have been refused water from neighboring els
terms during fire, and the authorities have declined
placing cisters at places where most needed
There has not been over three property holders II
NE company since It's rganisation-why should WI
Apend our own money in protecting the property o
e citizens! II those who are most deeply interested
treat this matter with Indifference no other course il
~ with US but to disband.
We have worked at fires as well as few mel
rald be expected TO do Our company was formed
dpersons the majority of whom were inexperienced
yGve had the material for an excellent company.
We have spent an0re money than we have received
The surplus money will be used by Us as we Sc
proper hereafter
For the reasons already given in this card, we re
Nmt the city authorities the engine and new hos
good order
We trust that the efforts of others in future MAJ
meet with moreencouragement, and be crowned wit
greater success
