sweeping in the direction of my home I started for home as soon as I could Arriv ing at Gladys a polling place fourteen miles from my I found that the fire Had started there home people smoking had set fire to some hay stacks close to the polling place The fire ran due East reaching Queensum forty miles distant in a little over two hours left Gladys driving along side of the fire all the way home after doubting whether I would be able to get there before the fire It was burning sideways to the wind which was very near at times The fire would eat as you might say on the shoulder towards the North when the wind would catch it and it would run along front of the leaning and bounding from four to eight feet high almost at lightning speed When I got home about oclock the back fire was coming into the bottom about two miles from my house The side fire was only about a mile distant and it looked as if nothing in the world could save our place The three boys living at home were out saying their stacks of hay about tons alt of which tbey succeeded in saving As soon as I could I started out thinking I would meet them about three miles to the West where the river makes a bend to the North where they would be fighting the fire so to carry it past our place and thus ave the grass inside bend I found no one there and home again when I ar rived just as the boys were tiring the grass around the house save it and the back fire coming up the bot tom within yards of the house As soon as we had put oat the fire around the house two of the boys started for the bend up the river to save what grass they The boy and myself put out the fire across the bottom and then started to fight the back fire to meet the boys coming from the West We fought it for over a mile and I was quite played out when just at day light we had new vigor started id us by hearing the others coming down wind The firpt to join us was one of the girls driving a team She had been out all night carrying water for them to wet sacks with they fought the fire and tea for them to drink Well we saved about acres of all our buildings and hay ex cept gome ten loads We lost no cattle but some of our
