w. j. Lancelot,
Dear Folks:--One awful Sunday
has just passed--one that will never
be forgotten by thousands Of Min
nesotans. About 8 a. m. yesterday
Phil was called to the office to as
sist taking reports on the fire stu
alton up north and message after
message poured in until we are
waiting to hear definitely whether
everybody was saved at Cloquet.
1t was wiped off the map about 6
O'Clock Saturday evening, all left
is the paper mill, new tooth-pick
factory and Johnson Wentworth
Lumber mill. Relief train carried
400 people to Duluth, not includ-
ing autos that had gone ahead 1t
was brot in with 60 mile wind. 1t
is now 8 a. m. and | have been at
the phone constantly. Elfes's sent
us message that they were safe in
Duluth with only what they had on
their backs to their name. He edi-
ted the "Pine Knot" there. Mr..
Spoor sent a message that they
were safe in Superior with only
what they had on their backs to
their name. He said Harold, (PhiPs
brother had just moved the day
before the fire to Duluth. Ma Bow
man and Blanche, so far, have been
unaccounted for. A girl from Mimi
eapolis, but married and living in
Cloquet, just called me and said
she had just arrived from Superior,
where she was taken Saturday night
on a relief train. Before she went
to the depot she phoned Ma Bow
man to come and get on the train
but her daughter said We've been
around forest fires in Virginia so
much we are not afraid and we'll
wait" That is the last anyone
seems to know about them. She
went right to the train then and
when she got on the train the up
per northern lumber yards We're
burning with q 60 mile wind blow
ing right over the town. She did
not know whether they were on the
last train out or not. If so, they
were trapped. We cannot learn
about anyone else we know. The
Bowmans sold their place last week
and she was due here tomorrow for
a visit with us. Being in the east
end they couldn't see the fire COM
ing until it was right on to them.
The paper this morning states 1000
dead and if it doesn't nearly double
that we will be surprised.
The girl second door from us
just arrived from Duluth and she
said she hoped never to see any
thing like it again. Women and
children with just a few clothes on,
babies with no wraps on lit was
awfully cold) sick people just out of
bed, women with eyelashes burned
off and some with no hair, shirts
burned off men, and things no one
could ever believe.
Well. | must close now. Will
write more particulars later.

solemn. He invariably rehearsed the
ordination service the night before.
His continuous exhortation to the re-
ligious communities and the clergy of
his diocese were but the outward
manifestations of the zeal for the In
ner life with which he was consumed.
Looking back over his career we
must admit that in view of immediate
results many of his rainbows proved
to be not the harbingers of sunshine
but the forerunners of storms. Col
onies suffered blight, movements died
out, dreamed-of harmonies in Church
and state turned into discord, large
areas here and there refused to receive
the light of his beneficent genius.
But his influence in the long run has
powerfully leavened the world for the
better and although his sun has set
it's light will for ages illumine the
horizon.
At citizen and churchman in his
day and generation he had no SUI
perior; as a public man with his pene-
trating intellect, forceful character
and catholic benevolence he had no
equal Had human nature a voice
