with interlinngS of oilcloth and thick
flannel. Into this was placed the flint
and finder box for kinding fire. and
the bag was then securely fastened
with double flaps and tied to keep its
contents dry. 1t was the special duty
of the second mate to look after the
fire BAG and in case of shipwreck to at
tack it at once to his person by means
of stout straps provided for the pur
pose. Thus if officers and crew were
cast away on some deserted shore in
the desolate arctic circle the means of
obtaining fire to warm themselves by
and to heat food and drink would not
be wanting as long as the precious fire
bag was safe.

present day still carry Il fire bag slowed
