The Mayetta Herald Jackson County Thursday October 22, 1914 Fire! Saturday night, Clyde MILLER went to the oil house at the rear of the Ona GRINNELL garage, to draw some gasoline for a customer and while doing so very nearly set the garage on fire. Clark COLEMEN, for whom he was getting the gasoline, was holding the lantern, at what they thought was a safe distance, so they could see to draw the gasoline. A syphon was being used to fill the can. On lifting it from the can some gasoline was splashed on the lantern and on Clark's shoes and trousers. His pants immediately were all ablaze and spread to the gasoline tanks and in a flash the whole inside of the shed was ablaze. Clark threw the lantern into a vacant lot. Clyde picked up the blazing oil can ands carried it out of the building buring the palm of his hand on the can. They then tried to extinguish the blaze on themselves and were only successful after taking the oil soak shoes from Clark's feet. The boys died not seem to realize they were in a dangerous place and commenced fighting the fire. Clyde threw a bucket of water on the fire and as the gasoline was not very thick on the floor it scattered the blaze to it could be whipped out. Flames were still shooting from the uncapped top of the 50-gallon barrell of gasoline. Clyde smothered them holding a handful of waste over the opening. Clyde kicked the can of oil over in the lot so it would not explode and the flames reached above the surrounding buildings. Nothing could then be done until the oil was burned. It was the thoughtfulness of the boy to stick to the fire after it had been accidentally started, that saved all of that part of town from being destroyed as the explosion of five barrells of gasoline would have been terrific. Much praise can be given the boys for sticking to so perilous a task.
