use tno intersecting point of the
branches of the river, as a spot from
which to measure distances—it being
somewhat central.)
. The increasing glare left me, (living on
the South side,' about one mile from the
scene of the pnint'of the Ore,) to
joiirthw already - hastening - crowds, and
turn towards it. Arriving,' it became
apparent the fire (MO find taken tho
firemen by surprise, -and selected a
locality, thickly studded with low frame
buildings,'hi which to begin the work of
a. city's -destruction.
A general alarm soon brought the en
tire force of the fire department-, as per•
fectly organized as any in the land, and
composed of men whose noble conduct
during this day and preceding night of
fierce trial, is worthy of the most 'lavish
praise. A. strong south-easterly wind
was blowing, and—soon fanned into ex
istence an irresistible sea of flame,, whirl
ing high into the air, wave after wave of
dense black smoke, spangling the heavens
'with myriads of sparks, and hurling for
miles, already lighted torches fall 'upon
defenceless buildings rendered ready for
destruction by the absence of rain for
two months, during which time they,
were parched into the very perfection of
tinder. Fighting nobly before . the de
vouring flames, t 4 firemen were-driven
in its victorious pathway from street to
street, and soon were called for in ad
vance of their.positicin, to do battle with
fresh outbreaks, thus compelling them
to take .np a new lino of defence,
abandoning intermediate buildings to
insure against personal destruction.
'Thus the contest raged on file West side
while-the roaring flames continued to
gain in power and fury, enveloping
dwelling houses, lumber yards, planing
mills and churches in their annihilating.
grasp. Swiftly they worked to the east
ward from Taylor street two blocksholow
the point of their first appearahce, and
destroyed all the mills, warehouses and
lumber yards lining the west 'bank of
the South B'l'anch, while their rapidly
destructive march continued in a South
easterly direction, towards the meeting
point of the branches Of the river It
was now considered' by every body, a
hopeless task,to attempt to check -their
further progress, and sole aViance was
placed upon their stoppage, by the de;
Arnctioii , a everything inflatamable, to
a point where the conflagration of the
night previous had laid waste a space
twenty acres iii 'extent, directly across
the pathway of its more savage ally. But
before this point was reached, flying
sparks, or hellish incendiaries had fired a
tow of tenement houses on the South
side, between _Mains and Van Buren
streets, on Wells street, eight blocks
from' the confluence of the river's
branches, two blocks from the South
Branch and beyond the north lino of
Saturday night's fire, the hbstacle before
named Was thus leaped over. Soon .the
buildings from Adams street to the main
branch of the river were all ablaze and
the fiend of destruction, reaching out its
fiery tongue, lapped into its strong jaws,
the depositories of chemical's,
liquors, along South Water street
on the bank of and running parallel to
the main river. Meanwhile a second
lodgment had been :iffeeted on the
South side. At a point about one mile
along the South Branch, stood the plan
ing mill - of Hayward, Swift fi, CO., of
which firm Mr. Cook was formerly a
partner, and at tins spot the flames span
ning the branch, continued their work
of demolition. Whilst this crossing was
being effected, the North side was
brought within the kery . ople by a sea of
sparks ore, flooding it, and in so many
difliirent localities igniting buildings,
that, it would not to — improper to say
that the crossing of Hic main branch of
the river was simultaneous along its
whole line. ; The bridges were finicldy
ablaze, and the flames spreading onward
were guided along their course by the
viaducts and docks upon the North bank
of the main branch Once fairly under
way, such a raging ocean of flame 'can
bettgr be imagined thaii .descrihed? but
it will aid the mind le comprehending
'the extent of the dostrUction to say that
'a sketch of county, 13 ; squa - ro miles in ex
tent, was denuded of its buildingS with
the solitary exception of one frame dwel
ling house, situated in such a manner as .
to suggest a latter day Miracle in its
Salvation. With ',this 'exception, not "it
house ronains upon this stretch of land,
and - as one stands upon its. southei'n
boundary and looks' over it, such a scene
of desolation is presented as no human
per can describb. Here the miter works
woro destroyed; long before other por
tions of the same side, (and also many
hours befol'e the termination of the fire
on - the South Side,) although standing on
the extreme northern edge of this burnt
district, along' the ]altoi shore. The wind
had carried thy flames ii that direction

North side had.been destroyed, now all

mooted. Still the fire, swept eastward
and southward on this side, directly in
the face of a strong gitle . ,blowing directly
North. It advanced South, along State'
street, taking hi its course the finest
architectural,ornaments of the 'city. Its
progress,' by- blowing .up a dozen of
structures, was finally firested at Harri

In the North, 1/Ivisicin, scenes of apal-
ling terrnr , were witnessed. The residents
of that section, not anticipating the
spread of the Ilames to their locality,
had mostly retired to rest; and those
whose misgivings had kept them on the
watch, were surprised by .the rapidity
with which the avalanche of lire broke
upon them. The very air seemed in a
state of combustion, and hurriedly leav
ing their dwellings, the people started
on foot, or in such conveyances as they
had time to collect, leaving everything
behind them, for Lincoln Park and the
Lake Shore pleasure drive.. Even here
the flames ran quickly tirou4h . the
parehed underbrush, and destroyed such
goods as had been stored in confidence
of safety. - Col. 'Roberts had barely
time to get his wife into a buggy, and
taking his place in the shafts, carried
her to the Park, where meeting with
unexpected aid they escaped to a place
of stffety, thankful for the preservation
of life.
