TfTlHE FIREMEN OF FREEPORT. The firemen have my sincere thanks for the excellent work they did at the fire at my building on .Main Street Sun¬ day night. After witnessing what they did and the manner in which they entered the smoke-lilled building and combated the fire, I want to say that nothing is too good for our Freeport firemen. I am sure New York firemen could not have done better with such a stubborn blaze.
