All the space unoccupied by houses and lumber was, on that eventful morning, crowded with trunks, bedsteads, mattrasses, pianos, chairs, tables, bundles of clothing, feather-beds, people, horses, wagons, and almost everything that goes to make up a large city ; besides there were numerous bar- rels of whiskey which had been rolled down from the hell shops further up by the dissolute wretches.
Day was just breaking when the conflagration had reached the 154 HISTORY OF THE GREAT FIRES edge of the... sands. The gale continued to drive with fury, and the sand and smoke combined to pelt the very eyes out of the wretched thousands crowded on that desolate place. Soon the smoke became so dense that the sands were dark as at midnight. The strongest constitution could not look that wind in the teeth and remain alive. The people fled down to the very water, while the flames burst through the dense smoke and leaped after them. The fiery brands fell amid the furniture and bed clothing, soon setting the entire shore in a blaze.
