entire country. The fire was carried
to the home of Mr.. Angus Without
thinking. the fire fighters began throw
ing the water which was within few
feet of the house, onto the flames. The
oil on the water only tended to feed
the fire, and the fight had to be given

a small part of the household effects
were gotten out, and the members of
the household only escaped with the
