RIRXS IX WHTTEHORSE
Word was brought over on the
last train from Whltehorse ot quite
i a disastrous lire which occurred
there early Monday morning.
About three o'clock an alarm was
| turn< d in by one ot the R. C M. P.
| when it was discovered that the
large barn owned by Tony Cyr, thej
I wood dealer, was on fire. The barn
| was situated near the cemetery.
The Whttehorse firemen responded
to the call and as fast as possible
laid a line of hose from the power
plant to the fire, tut by that ttmr i
the fire had made such headway that
there was not much to save.
A very valuable team of horses
was suffocated and incinerated and
l large amount of feed burned ur
as well as a number of harnesses
I and other equipment.
Wilbur Storey and "Mickey" Mul
viMill of the Skagway Yolunteer Tire
, Department were the second to re
pond to the big sirene whistle, and
>oth of them did all they could in
muling hose carts and laying hose
These boys say that the Whitehorse
ire department, urder the efficient
leadership of George Ryd°r, are
good fire fighters and had they a
chance in the way of time, could
have saved the bara.
The hose line as run out, was
about sixteen hundred feet long,
taking three hose reels to mak* it,
and. of course, that consumes a
good deal of time, especially when
the men are all waked from sound
sleep.
Mr. Cyr's loss wlfl be keenly felt
and he has the sympathy of a host
of friends.
