The best play, 236 ‘feet 10 3-4 inches,” was made by the Enterprise of Campello, and the poorest play by the Converse, 136 feet 1-2 inch.

In this connec- tion a brief historical sketch of the 63 years' old ‘Hay Cart will be of special interest to the present day firemen of Westerly. The Hay Cart, a nine inch stroke, double deck. hand fire engine, now owned in Fawtucket, was known in Westerly as the N. F. Dixon, Jr., No. 2. It was bullt in 1849 by Jeffers of Paw- tucket for the Rough and Readys of thac place and first christened the Rhcde Island. Following the fire at the planing #ill of Charles Maxson & company, in Main street, on the site of the present R. A. Sherman's Sons com- pany plant, on the night of Oct. 30, 1868, the people of Westerly and Paw- catuck realized the necessity for better fire protecticn. There was a meeting of citizens on Nov. 2, 1868, when Sam- uel Cross T. V. Stillman clerk. Horace Babcock, James M. Pendleton, Jonathan Maxson and Calvert B. Cottrell were named as a committee to investigate the merits of steam and hand fire engines. A voluntary assessment committee, com- posed of Samuel H. Cross, Case Chap- was chosen moderator and In the firemen's muster at the Brock- | Ran Gazette prophesied that the hand en gine, “if ‘well treated, will be lonn‘n £00d machine 25 years hence The' first actual service to be ren- dered by the fire apparatus. new Westerly . was at the noon‘ fire at Maxson planing mills, and the Wester- ly Weekly oduorhl comnunt at that time was: “There can be little doum that one-half the cost of the entire fire apparatus was saved on this single oc- casion.’ From that time the now -Hay Cart |P was in fire parades and drawn to fires for use in emergency, and was the bone of contention.in many fire district meetings, as there was effort to locate the engine in Pawcatuck, and at Still- manville, but the old machine ned in" the fire house on Cookey In the early 70's there was a lively test between the steamer and the hand en- gine on a wager of a keg of beer that the hand engine could be made to squirt the highest stream, and the old tub won. - After a while the novelty worc off and there were not many men who carell .to work the brakes. In 1886, after the Hay Cart had been in service 17 years in Waesterly, and was then 37 years old, it was sold at public auction to Eugene B, Pendleton for $35. Mr, Pendletorl disposed of it to C.'B.
