The chief danger lay in the proxâ€" imity. of Mr 8. Orchard‘s stable and theschool building it self, and it was gererally acknowledged that but for the snow of the previous night both iflings would have been in serions . The Brigade hbad the engine out in short order but delay occured in placing it. It seems to us a tink is necessary in that part of the town, as well as a pumping station at the river so that no uncertainty may prevail as to the best place to go. It should be everlastingly borne in mind also that at a fire a chief is chief : that he has the say|and the right of way over everybody and everything, that the best way to assist them in most cases is to keep out of the way. 8t AxoreEw‘s NiouT.â€"The youngsters o‘ the Presbyterian Kirk here intend haein a graund Scottish concert on Nov. 30 neist, (St Andrew‘s nicht) i‘ the Toon Ha‘, Durham.

Iam writing on some of the town paper that we rustled. So vou will see the name of the place on it.

Of course | they always have a few snipers behind to keep us back as much as pnssihle.i but the Tommies were pretty well up to the front that day and they gave us ; good service. While we would be goâ€"| ing from one kop to another theywere ; watching for anyone who might show up, which was quite often. First one| of A Squadron boys was shot through ; the leg, After leaving him we were| galloping alongwhen one out of C. 8| (troop) was shot in the cheek and came | out at the back of his neck. Whether his mates didn‘t know hbe was shot or afraid to stop in the rifle fire I dont know, but he was lying there when 1| came along so I go3 off my horse and got him off to the side of the road under l cover of the kep aud hel;‘wd to dress | his wound with my fiell bandage. -Iti wasn‘t long till there was a doctor| there, then I got his horse. One of his‘ mates had come back by this time and ; I left to catch up to the rest of my troop. I think he will pull through all , "We are still chasing the beggars yet but they seem to go about as fast as we can. _ We are having. most lovely weather, only a little hot through the _day time for comfort, _ We have been chasing the enemy livelier than usual since last Saturday till yesterday when I guess they thought they would need a rest or they wouldâ€" n‘t stand it long. On Sunday the boys had big hopes of catching some of them. The shelling was lively from both sides. but we made them move their guns and we followed them up and got within a couple of miles of the transport, but they wouldn‘t let us charge them as our Lattery was not up to cover us from behind. _ It was hard to see us so close and still not call them ours, There was about 2 miles of transport so we had to retire back to camp without any game only a few dead boers and horses. Next moroamg we struck out again, I thought sure we would catch their transport, but they had their big guns too well placed for us to move very fast i and it is a most ridiculous country for: hills and rocks and sometimes going: over them as hard as the horses can gallop. _ Well when we got up to where | we l¢.i off the night before some of’ them were hunting around. Of course | we were halted behind the hill for:; awhile Werun against a cask of the: boers‘ provisions which consisted of rice, | mealies, sugar granulated and other | luxuries. They bad been in and loaded ; up a few waggons while passing but had ! to leave 10 or 15 waggon loads. Of course the most of the bovs and myself had, rice pudding and sugar for lunch that night. This was about 2 p. m. and it | was well hid among some bushes. : DURHAM, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1900. Writing to his mother from Spitzkop P. 0., District Lydenburg, on Sep. 15th Trooper G, W.
