Tearing up an Old Relic.

The fire department is engaged in
pulling to pieces the old hook and
ladder which has been out of service
for many years. 1t was cumber
some hand affair, but was a hand
some piece of apparatus in its day.
The pole and other wooden parts were
finely finished and the heavy carving
gives some idea of the appearance of
the old truck. when it was the pride of
the volunteer department of many
years ago.
For several years the old outfit has
been standing in a vacant lot on Juli-
ana street, and it was decided to pull
it to pieces and sell the old iron and
brass in it for junk, and possibly util-
ize some of the springs in it if they
are in good condition.
All the ladders on the truck except
the heavy main ladder have been long
ago carried off or destroyed, but some
of the old pixies, and old fashioned
leather buckets are still hanging to it.
