Another Outbreak on Howard Hill
Close Call at Hammond's Grove.

The firemen were called to lower
Sewall street again early Monday aft
ernoon by the breaking out of the fire
on the Betsey Howard hill, and while
1t burned over quite a little amount
of territory it was kept well in hand
and was finally extingushed at about
8 o'clock.
A call for assistance was also re-
ceived at Cushnoc hose house on ac-
count of a fire at Hammond's grove,
Cobbosseecontee, but no men were
available at the time and it was learn
ed soon afterward that the fire had
been eXtinguished. 1t was, however,
pretty close call. The fire caught
by the roadside back of the J. V. Lane
cottage, evidently from match which
had been thrown down by someone
who had lighted a cigar. and quickly
made its way to a stable owned by w.
II. Reid. one end of the stable caught
fire and the blaze also got under the
building. and it was only by the de-
termined efforts of the cottagers and
few others with two chemical ex-
tnguishers and brooms that the fire
was stopped. It was a close call for
the grove.
