was. The large lumber mill. she office
and railroad freight station across the
street. BELONGING to the Baltimore.
Chesapeake & Atlantic Railway Co,
were swept away as feather before a
flame. and the fire was slowly but
surely eating it's wav through the
piles of pine toward the very heart of
the business of Salisbury.
AS the first faint streaks of day shot
across the eastern sky the wind in
creased and the hearts of the firemen
| sunk within them. They had done
their hest. and vet failure stared them
in the face. It was lust at this noint
chat the Pocomoke fire department.
with apparatus and % men, arrived on
a speciai train. furnished by the New
| York. PHILADELPHIA a. Norfolk railroad.
Their coming was received with shouts
Of gladness, Within a few minutes they
were at work on the flames. The Sails
bury firemen. as well as the citizens
GENERALLY. took heart once more and
fine battle was renewed with vieor and
success.
