Description.

Alpena, Mich.-Out of the burned
district are now coming some of the
stories Of suffering and dangers en-
dured by those who survived the
flames. Miss Cassie Rowland had
twenty-six little children in her
school near Millersburg Friday after
moon. At the afternoon recess the
air was smoky Half an hour later
the woods about the little school
house were blazing fiercely. The chill
Idren started for their homes, but
were compelled to go to a neighbor-
ing house for shelter. Miss Rowland
says she could hardly face the wind
during the walk of a quarter of
mile to her own home. After she
reached it, the heat grew so intense
that the women were compelled to
seek shelter in the cellar, while the
men fought to save the house.
Then" says Miss Rowland, REF
ugees who had escaped with their
lives by lying in the plowed field with
their faces buried in the sand began
70 arrive. They kept coming all
through the night, all more or less
burned in their fight through the
woods. A boy named Dust, one of the
family of children which on Saturday
was reported burned, brought in the
charred remains of his little sister in
his pocket handkerchief. His father
and mother had already arrived at
our house. Their grief was terrible.
Then another of their children
little girl, arrived carrying a baby.
The child's dress was completely
burned off and her little body was a
mass of blisters.
But one fresh report of loss of life
came into Alpena on Sunday Henry
Hines, his wife and two children are
believed to have been cremated on
their farm near Cathro. Between
Metz and Rogers City seven more
bodies have been found, making to-
tai of twenty-six lives that are known
to have been lost in Presque Isle and
A1pena counties since Thursday night.
