It was then found thata log close by the carpenter’s shop was on fire, but luckily the prompt application of water quickly extinguished it, and once more everything seemed secure.

At first it seemed as if the fire would obtain the mastery, but by tearing down the pile and throwing in plenty of water it was fortunately got under before it had a chance to spread.
