 "The horror of my situation caused me to feel sick for a moment, but l realized that if there was anything to be done 1t must Do done at once, so l crawled along the rust covered Aues to the end of the boiler. In doing this l accidentally knocked over my candle aud put 1t out. With Q cry of anguish reached for 1t, but it had fallen among the flues and was out of my reach.

 After an agony of suspense heard the water shut off with gurge that to me sounded ike the voice of some demon bent upon devourlng me. l Ot, tempted to jump up, but struck my head severe blow upon the top of the boiler and cut a gash In my scalp, but I hardly felt It, so alarmed was l at the thought of the next step the negroes would take-the fire!
 Had l been fortunate enough to have possessed revolver or even pocket knife .I'wOuId have ended 1t all there. But I was unable to do thing except yell and beat the sides of the boiler with all my might and main. I was forced 10 sit and know that under me the negroes were building the Are that would slowly roast me to death.
 "I cannot describe my feelings or agony during the following moments. l imagined I could feel the heat under me already. The atmosphere was suf- locating and cold beads of perspIra ton stood out upon my forehead and trickled down my spine. To me every minute was an hour.

They soon got out of order, and the foreman sent all the way to Pine Blun to get a bollermaSer, There were none available then except those in the railway shops there. AS pret- ty good sum was offered, laid or from my regular work and decided to make a few extra dollars. This try came near being the end of me.
 When I reached the SawmiIl found the boilers In a bad fix. The dues were choked and needed roaming bad Iy. In addition they were caEed on the inside. and as there was not enough help present I decided to go into the boiler myself and chisel or some Of the caEed matter while the negroes were roaming out the fues.
 This worked all right on the first boiler. and I soon had it in good shape. l then went 10 the second boiler and told the negroes as soon as they had finished roaming out the second boiler to replace the manhole on the first. All 1t up with water and fire up for test.

Tue thing that stood out grim and gaunt before me was the fire in the furnace that would slowly roast me to death.
 "In a moment of desperation seized my hammer and dealt myself a severe blow upon the head to try and stun myself in order that the last pangs might not be SO terrible. The blow only burst the skin and caused me ad- dltlonm pain. Hotter and hotter grew the dues. Strange and weird figures appeared before my vision.
