QUEER TESTIMONY


Taken at q Little Trial at the Fire Board
Last Night.
Matthew Bligh, stoker of Engine No. 1,
succeeded in testifying himself into a ten
days fine at the meeting Of the Board of
Fire Commissioners last night. Stoker
Bligh was charged with neglect of duty.
This neglect was because when box 124
was pulled on February 10, the stoker
counted it 1874. The first number was for
a fire on the Hill and the latter for one on
Green street.
1t was Bllgh's duty to count the strokes
at the engine house. He claimed last
night that the gong did not strike cor
rectly and pleaded not guilty to the charge
against him.
Telegraph Inspector Speicher testified
positively that the alarm could not have
been given wrong at engine house No. 1,
and he was sure the gong was all right
and SO were the wires.
Chief Farrier c~orroborated Mr.. Speicher
and said the ong at headquarters worked
properly on this occasion.
For the defence Fireman Marker of No.
1 Engine said that he was present when
the alarm was given and he counted I3-4.
He was asked by the Chief if two morn
lngs later he told him he did not hear the
gong. and he replied:-"No, sir.n
Didn't you tell me you did not count
the strokes, because it was none OF your
business?p
A number of other questions were
asked Masker, all meeting with the same
answer, and finally the Chief enquired in
disgust:-"Haye you seen me at all since
the fire?''
mo, sir" was the calm reply, and the
Chief was knocked II completely. He
could only murmur:-"That's pretty

he answered, adding that in response to
the call he went to box 1874, and when he
returned to the engine house he reported
his engine ready for duty.

they boosted that they intended to have
a say regarding the disposition of the

work with a vim that enabled them to
capture one game with an advantage OF
eighty -seven pins and led them to almost
pocket the other. The Jerseymen con-
trived to break ever by pulling this game
out of the fire through a magnificent
spurt on the last frame that put them
fourteen pins in the van. Here are the
