burning in the large barn. on the prem-'

.there was little for the firemen to do
towards saving the building or its con-

towards keeping the house so well wet
down with water that 'the flames would
not reach it. The heat was so intense
that it was a diil’icult matter, and even
;the wooden pump that stood between
