The following paragraphs are
from the State Forestry News Letter:
The visit of District Forest War
den Nelson Morse to the lower
Eastern Shore brings to print the
story of the Cecil County Warden
who, having imbibed too much home
made cider, attended fire and got
the seat of his pants on fire. During
his wild dash for the nearest creek,
he spread several spot fires in his
wake. incidentally he has since
resigned as warden.
The largest fire in Cecil County
during the year occurred near Bacon
Hill on April 2O-21 and burned near
ly 1000 acres. 1t was started by on e
group of laurel pickers attempting to
destroy the laurel for another group.
Prompt response by Smokechaser
Craig and other wardens resulted in
the finding of coats, boxes, and a
good watch. No names could be
learned or persons apprehended.
