This house was also oc- copied by H J Bass. Then it was seen that the neigh boring prize hoaEe3 situated close by were doomed. The firemen worked manfully, but the water pressure wasn't sufficient to do very effective work. The best that could be done was done under the circumstances. That better work was not done should be ascribed to the dry weather, rather than to the firemen them eelvea. E ery thmg was as dry N as tinder and burned fiercely, and there waa hardly any checking it. The flames were so hot nearly all the time that a person could hardly stay near the fire. r " Hogshead af:er hogshead of to bacco waa rolled out of the ...prize "houses ia the neigh torhood, and a gcod deal was carried to places out of reach of the fire in baskets and in yarious other ways.
