Mr.. Frank Blanc and engineer
John Saucier have gone to the
Jennings well fire with a scheme
for extinguishing it. Mr.. Saucier
has been engaged in boring and
managing wells for Il number of
years and may be called an expert
of high order, he is also mechan-
ical engineer of long and varied
experience, and after explaining
his scheme to put out the oil fire it
seems quite feasible, and we trust
he may have an opportunity to put
it to the test. Mr.. Blanc, who
accompanied him, has also had
experience in the well business and
will make a valuable assistant.
We wish them good luck.
Since above was written Mr..
Saucier has returned from the
burning we'll which he graphically
describes. He was unable to put
his device at work, owing to the
fact that the Heywoods had closed
a contract to have the fire put ont
by steam, and until that method
failed he could not entertain any
other. In the event of the failure
of the steam method, Mr.. Saucier
will be sent for.
