quick hitch, last evening. An alarm was
given about I, and in five seconds short of
three minutes the members of the Main
Street Hose Co. had laid 1000 feet of hose
and had a stream of water running
through it. The run was made to Front
street. and had 1t not been for the fact
that a Decent team was in the way, the
department would probably have made
the run in less than 2h minutes. There
has been a little talk among certain few
that the department is slow in getting
out. Last nights trial proved the fallacy
of the talk.
