Tho settlement and the "big woods" beyond wer saved.
Sol Cnrdln reached tho settlement on the following day, and heard the story of tho fire. In response to an offer from Will, he replied: "No, my boy, you needn't pay for ihe dam by working or anything else. I'm In debt to you for saving my timber above tho settlement, instead." Then ho added, in a qulot way characteristic of him, "It seems a pity if wit like vonrs doesn't cnt Its full

When old Ike Frazier cried out, "It's no use hero any more, boys!" Will was tho Inst one to duck his head and run for the road up tho creek to tho settlement. Half a dozen men wero detailed to go to the houses and help the women carry the furniture and other household goods out in tho fields to the watering troughs; the rest hastened to the brook and scattered along It and threw water on tho brush at tho
