Three Harvard Men 
Fight Forest Fire. 
The action of three well-known 
young Boston society men, students 
at Harvard, undoubtedly averted what 
might otherwise have proven a de- 
structive forest fire in the vicinity of 
Wyman’s hill, Manchester, last Sun- 
day, when much valuable property 
would have fallen prey to the rav- 
ages of the flames, carried on by the 
high wind that was blowing. 
M. Phillips Mason, a son of Morti- 
mer B. Mason, one of Manchester’s 
wealthiest summer residents, and two 
friends, a Mr. Beals, anda Mr. Pierce, 
were down from Boston spending 
Sunday at Col. William D. Sohier’s 
camp at Chebacco lake. They went 
out in the afternoon for a tramp, and 
on the road which leads through the 
woods toward Manchester they dis- 
covered a fire quickly eating its way. 
It had already burned about 100 feet 
along the road. 
With clubs and heavy pine branches 
they set to work in an endeavor to put 
out the fire, but it had gained too 
much headway, and when they real- 
ized they could not cope with the 
flames they headed toward Manches- - 
ter, walking the entire way. They 
went to engine house and from there 
to the home of Fire Warden Meldrum, 
who set out for the fire at once. He 
took with him Chief Peabody, Fire 
Warden McKinnon and half a dozen 
boys, besides the three young men 
who had discovered the fire. 
When they arrived at the fire fully — 
ten acres had been burned over; but 
after working more than an hour, the 
three young Boston men being no less 
ardent workers than the others, the 
headway of the flames was stopped. 
It was dangerously near the High- 
land avenue and Jersey lane property 
before it was put out. Great credit is 
due the youug men who discovered 
the fire and gave the alarm.
