THE
PITTSBURG DISPATCH,1 - SATURDAY OCTOBER 19; 1889.
"I will go and lend a hand at those pomps,"
Jacob Carey said.
-It's not tbe slightest use,' Mr. Armstrong
replied. "You might as well try to blow out
tint Are with your breath as to cut it out by
throwing a few pails of water on it Let us see
that everyone is out first; that's the main mat
ter." They joined a group of men and women, who
were standing looking at tbe flames; they
were the two women, tbe groom and gardener,
and four or fire men who had already come up
from the village.
The gardener was sneaking.
"It's no use to work at the pumps: there are
only four or five' pails. If it was only at one
end we might prevent its spreading, but it's got
bold all over."
"I can't make it out," the groom said. "One
of tbe horses was sick, ana I was down there
giving him hot fomentations with the other
Froom. I bad been there perhaps an hour when
saw a light coming out of tbe drawing room
window, and I ran up shouting; and then I saw
there was a light in the dining room and library
too. Then I ran round to the back of the
bonse, and the housekeeper's room was alight
liehind. I run in at the kitchen door, and up
stairs, and awoke one of the gardeners, and
gut tlicm nut. The place was so lull of
kinokc.it was as much as no could do to get
down. Then we got this long ladder,
and put it against .Mrs. Wilson's window,
and got her and tbo girl down. Then
wc went round tbo other side, and I got np and
broke a pane in Mr. Carne's window and
shouted. I could not make him bear, so I
broke another pane and unfastened tbo win
dow and lifted ir, and went in. I thought he
must have been stifled in bed, for the smoke
was a thick as possible, and 1 had to crawl to
tho bed. Well, master wasn't there. I felt
about to sco if ho was on the floor, but I could
find nothing of him; the door was open, and I
expect be must have been woke uu bv tbe
smoke, and went out to see what was tho
matter, and perhaps got choked by it. 1 know
I was nearly choked myself by the time I got
my bead out of the window again."
"Ho may have cot to the upper storey,"
Jacob Carey said. "We bad best keep a look
out round the house so as to be ready to pnt the
ladder up at once if we sec him. There is
nothing else to do, is there, Mr. Armstrong?
You are accustomed to all sorts of troubles,
and may know best what we ought to do."
"1 can't think of anything." Mr. Armstrong
replied. "Xo, if he's not in his own room it
seems hopeless to search for bim. You see the
flamrs have broken out from several windows
of the firht floor. My own idea is. from what
you say as to the fire having spread into all the
rooms on the ground floor when you discovered
it, that the poor gentleman must have set Are
to tbe house himself in half a dozen places,
and as likely as not may have been suffocated
almost at once"
"I shouldn't wonder if that was it," the smith
said. "It's not natural that the fire should
have spread all overthe lower part of the house
in such a short time. You know what we were
paying this evening. It's just the sort of trick
for a madman to play."
Tbe smith was interrupted by a sudden ex
clamation from those standing round, followed
by a shout of "There be is." A dormer window
on the roof of tbe oldest part of the houso
opened, and a figure stepned out on to a low
parapet tbat ran round the house
"AH right. &ir. all right." Jacob Carev shouted
out at the top of his voice: "we will have a
ladder for yon in no time." and he and a score
of men ran to lilt the long ladder that was
leaning against tbo side of the house.
It was soon lowere 1. brought round, and
Jilaced against tbe parapet close to where
teeinald Came was standing.
"Now then, sir," Jacob Carey shonted again,
"it's all right. You can come down safe
enough."
But Mr. Came paid no attention to tbe shout;
he was pacing tip and down along the parapet
and was tossing his arms about in a strange
manner. Suddenly he turned, seized the lad
der, and pushed it violently sidewavs along the
parapet Those below vainly tried to keep it
steady.
"Look out," the smith shouted, "leave go
and clear out. or be will have it down un you."
Tbe men holding the ladder dashed away
from the foot, ana tbe ladder fell with a crash
ujmn the ground, while a peal of wild laughter
broke out from above.
"The Squire has gone clean mad," Jacob
Carey said to Mr. Armstrong, as he joined htm;
"either the tire has driven him mad, or. what
is more likely, be went mad first and then lit
the fire. However, we must save him if we
can."
"Look there. Carey, if we lifted the ladder
and put it up between that chimney and the
window next to it. he can't slide it either one
way or another, as he did before; and be cer
tainly could not throw it backward, if we plant
the foot well away from the house,"
"That's right enough," the smith agreed,
"bnt if he won't come down, be won't."
"We must go up and make him. Carer. If
yon and I and a couple of strong men go up to
gether, we ought to be able to master him. Of
course, we must take up rope with us, and bind
him and then lower him down the ladder."
"We might do that.'" the smith saii "but
supposing tbe ladder catches fire ?"
"The fire won't touch it at that point, Carey
You see it will go up just between the rows of
windows."
"So it will; anyhow we might take up a Ion"
rope, if they have got one, so as to lower our
selves down if the ladder does catch fire."
He spoke to one of the grooms. "Have you
got plenty of ronef"
Plenty." the" man said. "I will rutci. n .
couple of lone coils from tbe stables. Here,
one of you, come along with me."
"Now we will get the ladder up," Mr. Arm
strong said.
With the aid of a dozen men for the whole
village was now upon the spot tbe ladder was
again lifted, and dropped so that the upper end
fell between a chimney and dormer window.
Reginald Carne again attempted to cast it
down, but a number of men hung on to the
lower Dart of the ladder, and tin iraBnnqMa
lilt it far enongn to get it out of the niche Into
which it had fallen. Then he turned round
and shook his fist at the crowd. Something
flashed in the light or the flames, and half a
dozen voices exclaimed "He has got a'knife."
At this moment the clergyman and doctor ar
rived logemer on me scene,
"What's to be done, doctor?" Jirnli i -,-
asked.
"I don't mind going up. with some others to
back me, to have a tussle with him on the roof;
but ne would knife us one by one as we got up
to the parapet and, though I don't think as I
am a coward, I don't careaboutcbucking away
my life, which is of use to my wife and chil
dren, to save that of a madman whose life ain't
of no use to hisself or anyone else."
"No, I don't see why you should, Carey," the
doctor said: 'the best plan will be to keep away
from the ladder for the present Perhaps when
he thinks you are not going to make the at
tempt he will move awav, and then we can get
upthere before he sees us. I will go first lie
cause he knows me. and my influence may
quiet him, but we had better arm ourselves
with sticks so as to knock that knife out of his
hand."
Reginald Came stood guarding the ladder
for a few minutes. By this time the whole of
the first floor was in a blaze, the flames rushing
out with fury from every window. Seeing that
he did not move, the doctor said at last-
"Well, we must risk it Give me a stick.
Carey, and we will make a try, anyhow.
"You can't go now." Mr. Armstrong said,
suddenly, "look, the ladder Is alight"
This was indeed tbe case. Thn fturw, i,.-
not absolutely touched it but the heat was so
peat tbat it had been slowly charring, and a
light flame had now suddenly appeared, and m
a uiuucui iu uci ieet oi tne 12
flames.
"It is of no use," the doctor said, dropping
the stick that Jacob Carey had jnst cut for bun
In tho shrubbery; "we can do nothing for him
now."
There was scarcely a word spoken among the
little crowd of spectators on the lawn. Every
moment was adding to their numbej as Mr.
Volkcs, the magistrate, and several other gen-
ms.". ... uii . UVI9CUAUA, iuu men ran up
from all the farm houses and cottages within a
circle of a counle of miles. All sorts of sugges
tions were made, bnt only to be rejected.
"It is one thing to save a man who wants to
be saved." the doctor said, "but quite another
thing to save one who is determined not to be
saved." This was in answer to a proposal to
fasten a stone on to a light line and throw It up
on to tbe roof. "The man is evidently as mad
as a March hare."
There could be no doubt of tbat Reginald
Came, seeing tbat his assailants, as he consid
ered them, could not get at him, was making
gestures of triumph and derision at them. Now
from the second-floor windows the flames began
to snurt out the glass clattering down on the
gravel below.
"Ob, father, what a pitiful sight P
Mr. Armstrong turned. "What on earth
brings you here. Maryl Run away, child. This
is a dreadful business, and it will be haunting
you."
"I bave seen more shocking things, father,"
she said qnietly. "Whv did you not bring me
up with you at first? I ran upstairs to get my
hat and shawl, and when I came back you were
gone. Of course, I came up at once, just as
everyone else in the village has done, only I
would not come ana bother you when I thought
you were going to do something. But there's
nothing to be done now but wait This must
surely be the end of the Curse of Carne's Hold,
father?"
"It ought to be, my dear. Yes. let us earn
estly hope that it all terminates here for your
sake and everyone else's. Mervyn will be mas
ter of Carne's Hold now."
"Not of Carne's Hold, thank GodP the girl
said with a shudder. "There will be nothing
u vyames jioia to-morrow out a neap of
runis. The place will be destroyed before he
becomes its master. It all ends together, tho
Hold and tbe direct line of the Cames."
"Let us turn and walk away. Mary. This is
too dreadful."
"I can't" and Mary shook her head. "I wish
I could, father, but it has a sort of horrible
fascination. Look at all these upturned faces;
it is the same with them all. You can see
that there is not one who would not go If he
could."
Tbo doctor again went forward toward the
house.
"Came, my dear fellow," be shouted, 'jump
off at the end of the house Into tbe shrubs ou
the beds there; it's your only chance."
Again the mocking lacgn was heard above
the roar of the Are. The flames were break
ing out through the roof now in Several
places.
"It will not be long before the roof falls
through," Mr. Armstrong said. "Come away.
Mary. I will not let you stay here any longer."
Putting his arms round his daugliter,he led her
away. Sue had not gone ten steps wbere there
was a tremendous crash. She looked back; tbe
roof was gone and a volcano of flame and
sparks was rising from the shell of the house.
Against these the figure of the madman stood
out black and clear. Then a sudden puff of
wind whirled the flames round him. He stag
gered, made a half step backward and fell,
while a cry went up from the crowd.
"It's all over, dear," Mr. Armstrong said, re
leasing his hold of his daughter; and then with
Jacob Carey and three or four other men, he
ran forward to the house, lifted the body of
Reginald Carne up and carried it beyond dan
ger of a falling wall.
Dr. Arrowsmith and the clergyman and sev
eral of tee neighbors at once hurried to the
spot
"He is not dead," Jacob Carey said, as they
came up; "he groaned when we lifted him; be
fell on to one of the little flower beds between
tbe windows."
"No, his heart is beating." the doctor said, as
he knelt beside him and felt his pulse," hut I
fear that he mut-t bave sustained fatal Injuries."
He took out a flask tbat he had. thinking that
a cordial might be required, slipped Into his
pocket just before starting for tbe scene of the
fire, and poured a few drops of spirit between
Reginald Carnc's lips.
There was a faint groan, and a minute later
he opened his ryes. He looked round in a be
wildered way, but when his eye fell on the burn
ing house a look of satisfaction passed over his
face.
"I have done it," he said. "I hare broken the
Cnrse of Game's Hold."
The doctor stood up for a moment and said
to one of the grooms standing close by, "Get a
stable door off its hinges and bring it here; we
will carry him into the gardener's cottage."
As soon as Reginald Carne was taken away,
Mr. Armstrong and his daughter returned to
tne vuiage. a lew oi tne villagers followed
their example; but for the most of them tho
fascination of watching the flames that were
leapiug far above the shell of the house was too
great to be resisted, and it was not until the
iay aawnea ana tne names smoldered to a
deep quiet glow that tbe crowd began to dis
perse. "It has been a terrible scene," Mary said, as
they walked down tbe hill.
"A terrible scene, child, and it would have
been just as well if you had stayed at home and
slept comfortable. If I had thought tbat you
were going to be so foolish I would not have
gone myself."
"You know very well, father, you could not
have helped yourself. You could not have sat
quietly in our cottage with tho flames dancing
up above the tree tops there, if you had tried
ever so much. Well, somehow I am glad that
the Hold is destroyed; but of course I am sorry
for Mr. Carne's death, for I suppose he will
die."
"I don't think you need be sorry, Mary. Far
better to die eveu like that than to live till old
age within tbe walls of a madhouse."
"Yes; but it was not the death, it was the
horror of it"
"There was no horror in his case, my dear.
He felt nothing but a wild joy in tbe mischief
he had done. I do not suppose tbat he had a
shadow of fear of death. He exulted both in
the destruction of his house and in oar
inability to get at him. I reallv do not think
that he is to be pitied, altbough it was a terrible
sight to see bim. No doubt he was carrying
out a long-cherished idea. A thing of this sort
aoes not aeveiop an at once, ne may for years
have been bronding over this unhappy taint of
insanity in his blood, and have persuaded him
self tbat with tbe destruction of tbe house,
what the people here foolishly call the Curse of
the Carnes ould be at an end."
"But surely yon don't believe anything about
the Curse, father?"
"Not much, Mary; the Curse was not upon
tbe house, but in tbe insanity that the Spanish
ancestors of tbe Cames introduced into tbe
family. Still. I don't know, although you may
think me weak-minded, that I could assert con
scientiously that I do not believe tbat there is
anything in the Curse itself. One has heard of
tuch things, and certainly the history of the
Cames would almost seem to justify the belief.
Ronald and his two sisters are, it seems, tbe
last of those who have the Carne's blood in
their veins, and anyhow Miss Carne's murder
and Ronald's misfortunes do not seem to have
anything whatever to do with the question of
insanity. At any rate, dear, I, like vou, am
glad that the Hold is destroyed. I must
own that I should not have liked
the thought of your evi r becoming its mistress,
and indeed I bave more than once thought that
before I banded you over to Ronald, whenver
that event might take place, I should insist on
bis making me a promise tbat should he sur
vive his cousin and come Into the Carnes'
estates he would never take you to live there.
Well, this will be a new incident for vou to
write to him about. You ought to feel thank
ful for that; for you would otherwise have
found it very difficult to fill your letters till you
hear from him what course he isgoing to adopt
regarding this business of Ruin Powlett and
Forrester."
Mary smiled quietly to herself under cover of
the darkness, for indeed she found by no means
the difficulty her father supposed in filling her
letters. "It is nearly 4 o'clock," she said, as
she entered the house and struck-a light "It
is hardly worth while coiner to bed. father."
"All right my dear, you can please yourself.
Now it is all over I acknowledge 1 feel both
cold and sleepy, and you will see nothing more
of me until between 10 and 11 o'clock in the
morning."
"Ob. if you go to bed of course I shall not
stop up by myself," Mary said; "but I am con
vinced that I shall not close an eye."
"And I am equally convinced, Mary, that in
a little over half an hour you will be sound
asleep," and in the morning Mary acknowl
edged that his anticipation had been verified.
( To be concluded.

OTABLE TO HOLD 01.
A Weil-Known Liveryman Who Had
to Leave at Last.
AN INTERESTING EPISODE.
"To leave my work was a very serious
matter with me, but I was obliged to do so.
In fact I was actually driven to it."
Tbe speaker was Mr. John Getts, of No.
157 Liberty street, and is in the employ of
Mr. Thomas Archibald, the well-known
liveryman, whose extensive stables are
located at 119 Third avenue. Mr. Getts
is one of the oldest men in his line of busi
ness in the city,- and is widely known among
the business men of this city. The history
of his experience, which- is given below,
will be of great interest, not only to his
friends, but to the public in general.
"I presume it was about two years ago
that r first noticed that anything was wrong.
Continued exposure to all kinds of weather,
standing out in the rain at night, bad often
given me colds, butI paid no particular at
tention to them. Gradually, however, I no
ticed my head was stopped up. First one
nostril would clog up and then the other.
There would be a dull pain in my fore
head. My eyes would get dim and
watery. There wonld be sounds like ring
ing or roaring in my ears. (Gradually this
trouble extended until my throat and chest
were affected. There was a continual drop
ping back of matter from my head into my
throat I would be continually hawking
and hemming to clear it of the micus and
phlegm. It became raw and inflamed. At
one time my throat was so sore tbat I cculd
not partake of any solid food. I subsisted
entirely on liquid nourishment, such as beef
tea and broths, for over two weeks. My
eyes grew worse, and my sight was so poor
that I was obliged to wear eyeglasses. Sharp
pains would take me in the chest, running
through to the shoulder blades.
Mr. John Getts, 157 Liberty street.
"I could see that I was getting weaker
and thinner every day. I worked as long
as I could, but my strength gave out entire
ly at last, and I had to give up. An ugly
hacking cough got hold of me. My nights
were the worst I could not sleep. The matter
that would drop down from my head to my
throat, almost choked me. I coughed and
coughed, and could get no rest at all.
Night sweats came on and weakened me
terribly. When I would get up in the morn
ing I would feel weak, sick and miserable.
I would do nothing for a while but cough
and raise, and I would be so weak that I
could hardly dress myself.
"I had no appetite. I would feel hungry,
but when I sat down to the table I could
not touch a mouthful oi food. If I did eat
anything, my stomach was so weak it could
scarcely retain any solid food. I would
have a -cold chilly feeling, which would
immediately be succeeded by a high fever.
My heart would beat hard and fast. Then
it would beat slow and irregular, and there
would be a sensation, of faintness and
dizziness. I tried all kinds of medicine and
various physicians, but obtained no relief.
"While I was in this condition, when one
day I read of a party who bad been treated and
cured by Drs. Copeland fe Blair. I called on
them and found their charges were very reason
able, and within my means. They didn't
promise anything, but I felt sure tbey under
stood my case, and placed myself under their
care. In a short time I noticed an improve
ment The cough, night sweats and pains in
my chest disappeared. My head and throat
became clear and well. My eyes got strong,
and I could do without my glasses. My appe
tite improved, and I could sleep well. Soon I
was able to go to work again. I gained rapidly
in weight, and continued to Improve in my
general health. I am working regularly now,
and feel perfectly well and strong again. I owe
my recovery to Drs. Copeland & Blair, and feel
that it is not only complete, but permanent as
Mr. Getts lives, as stated, at 157 Liberty
street and is employed at Thomas Archibald's,
119 Third avenue, and this interview can be
easily verified.
Additional Evidence by Mail.
A short time ago Mr. John "Wright, of
unicago junction, u., placed mmself under
treatment by mail with Drs. Copeland &
Blair. In writing about his trouble he
said:
"Two years ago I was ill with lung fever,
and never fully recovered from it I could
not sleep at night. The mucus would drop
back into my throat, and' I would wake up
iceuug as uiuugu j. was cuu&ing. Xiarge
scabs wonld come from my nostrils when
ever I used my handkerchief. They would
often be streaked with blood. My eyes
were affected, and were continually running
a watery substance. I was unable to attend
to my duties, feeling weak ani tired all the
time. I had a hacking cough and ringing
noises in my ears. Gradually I noticed I
was becoming deaf. I would have dizzy
spells, and my memory failed me. I had
pains in my chest and had no appetite.
"A short time after 1 commenced treating
with Drs.Copeland & Blair I noticed an im
provement The dropping in my throat
stopped, my cough and tho painsin my chestleft
me. lean now sleep and eat well. The result has
Deen a ureal surprise to me, as i nau given up
all hope of ever getting well again.''
About tho middle of last May Miss Lottie J.
Forkor, of 299 Arch street, Meadville, Pa.,
E laced herself under treatment by mail with
rs. Copeland &. Blair. In stating her case by
letter just previous to tbe dato above men
tioned she complained of terrible headaches,
followed by spells of vomiting, which would
compel her to lie in bed lor 21 hours, after
which she would be completely worn out
Sharp pain in tbe breast, extending through to
tbe shoulder blades, and followed by others in
her stomach and side.
On June 9 she wrote: "Your medicine Is doing
me good, I do not feel so tired, and my head
has only ached twice, and that was caused by a
fresh cold I caught"
On July 2 her letter stated that she was feel
ing very welt
August 25 she wrote: "I feel quite like a dif
ferent woman from the. one I was when I com
menced your treatment" ,
Some time ago Mr. M. C. Wilson, of Canons
burg. Pa., placed himself under treatment, by
mail, with Drs. Copeland Blair. In stating
bis case by letter early in July, he complained
of a full, heavy feeling in his head over thn
eyes, a bad taste in the mouth, coughing and
raising phlegm, dimness of sight sharp pains
in tho chest with a tight pinched feeling and
soreness In tbe lungs, ani
condition of the limbs.

July 25 he wrote: "I am improving steadily;
feel ever so much better than I have in years."
August 16 he wrote: "I feel like a different

your treatment and I am quite willing that a
short statement of what your treatment has
done for me should be made in the papers."
