started moving. The engine lies over
an hour at st. Johns, just by the water
tank, and during this time, while Mr..
Evans was at home at lunch, little
Fred walked down TO the engine,
mounted the seat and opened the throt-
tie wide. The machine was full of coal
and water and ready for the road. Sew

man to meet the engine. He caught
the handrail and swung up, but In so

steam, and the engine slowed down
