Later on meetings were called at one-half hour after sunrise, and later still they were to meet at whatever hour It was voted to meet.

Each person absent from a meeting was fined four shillings, and for being absent from a Are was fined three dollars. The first report of the captain or foreman, which was shown on April 5, 1810, was as follows: 1 fire engine a little leaky. 1 leather leader wants oil. 24 buckets in eood order. 1 tin lantern In good order.

2 axes in good order. 8 Are hooks in good order. 2 ladders in bad order. Engine house wants repairs. The limits of the Are district wers defined by an act for the extinguishing of fires in the village of Jamaica, in Queens County, passed April 2, 1810: "Be It enacted by the people of the State of New York, represented in the Senate and Assembly, that the limits of the Are company of the village of Jamaica shall extend along the main street or highway In said town from the house of Charles McNeil to the house of Daniel M.

The last named Are Is reierred to by the old-timers as the occasion of murder, suicide and arson, and In their reminiscences of the department the old veterans refer to It with awe.

John Kepler kept a saloon on Brenton avenue and South street. Ha was desperately in love with a married woman, a neighbor, the wife of John Fletschhaus, man well advanced In years. One day Kepler murdered the old man and threw his body into a nearby stream. Mrs. Fleischhaus was said to have had guilty knowledge of the deed.

Kepler lived with her until he learned that she had told several people about the murder. Made furious bv his knowledge, Kepler struck her on the head with an ax. killing her instantly. While she lay dead on the Aoor of the kitchen in his home. Kepler set Are to his place to cover up the crime.

Then he hanged himself In his wagon shed. He was dead when the Jamaica Fire Department came up on the run to extinguish the flames. A Spectacular Blaze in 1857. The most spectacular Are was that which destroyed the Dutch Reformed Church, on the night of November 19. 1857.

The church had a steeple that was about 90 feet In height. The flames crept up inside the steeple until the whole was like one blazing torch. The fire blazed up above the spire to a tremendous height, and could be plainly seen from th.) City Hall In Brooklyn. So near did It seem to the Brooklynites that the bell in the City Hall was rung, calling out the fire department. It was some time before they could be convinced that the Are was In Jamaica.

A singular thing which happened at that Ore was that all the bo6e of the Jamaica department had been cut by some unknown person, and the Bremen were helpless.

In all, counting In ths Columbia and Jamaica South departments, some 420 volunteers are to be mustered out, and some of them are asking, "What about the future? Will we get a place on the city's paid force?" Many of the volunteers, however, do not care for a position on the new force.

The salary would be no temptation to them whatever. They are prosperous business men, some of them making ten times the amount of a fireman's salary. They have cheerfully given their salaries. Others who are getting good salaries as city employes In other departments and whose- certificates as exempts will be as valuable to them after they are mustered out In getting new positions on the city's payroll or retaining old as are their present, certificates as active firemen, are Indifferent. Still others, who had an oblique view to escaping Jury duty when they Joined the volunteer department, say that they will be as well protected by their exempt certificate as If they were on duty as active members of the Are force.

The lucky few who are to go on the city's payrolls are commiserating the lot of their less fortunate fellows, but their sympathy Is somewhat tempered In view of the prospective $1,400 per annum.

'(fcC DOWN Ths Jamaica Fire Department, after an xlatence of 110 years, will, In a very few days on July 6, to be exact be a thing of the past. Its complete passing Into the fire department of the city of New York la regretted by many of the veteran volunteer firemen, who honor Its traditions and are proud to have been connected with an Institution that played so prominent a part in the affairs of the old village of Jamaica. The younger, active members of the department, who regret no lees the passing of the old volunteer system, will in future years look back with pride on the time when they served In a are department that had such an honorable record.

The rapid growth of Jamaica and the erection of large, costly buildings have made It Imperative that more adequate fire protection be secured. The apparatus with which the volunteers have done to much effective work In the past has outlived its usefulness In a great measure and must be replaced by more modern appliances for the fighting of fires, and men must be always ready in the fire houses, both night and day, to go out at a moment's notice. History of Volunteer Department an Interesting One. The history of the Jamaica Fire De- Jiartment is indeed an interesting one. the old village of Jamaica, 110 years ago.

there were not over fifty houses. Once In a while a fire occurred, and soon the people realized that fire apparatus must be provided for ths proper protection of the village.

Stephen H. Henderson, who was an active member of the Jamaica Fire Department from 1862 until 1906, and now is janitor of the Veteran Volunteer Firemen's Association Building, on North Washington street, often tells the young members about amusing Inoidents In the department when he was a younger man. One of these stories, which bears retelling, is "on" Atlantlo Hook and Ladder Company No. 1. That company, In 1864, was composed mostly of middle aged and elderly men.

They were often teased because of the fact that they always were the last to reach a Are and the first to leave It. One day, while responding to an alarm, they determined to reach the sceoe of the blaze In record time. As they were rounding the southwest corner of Washington, spasmodically pulling at the ropes and panting loudly, a fellow- member, George Snary, a shoemaker, wbeae shop was on the corner, and who had not turned out with the boys, ran out into the street In his leather apron, stood resolutely in front of the on-coming At-lantics, and In a loud voice shouted "stop!" Instantly tho fire laddies came to a halt and looked Inquiringly at the big shoemaker. "I want you to stop," he explained, "because you are at least four minutes ahead of time." About 1862 the old men on the Atlantic Hook and Ladder Company were supplanted by younger ones. They were the "swells" of the time, and on parade days wore high has and swallowtail coats.

They were an Imposing sight, it Is said. Another amusing Incident related by Mr. Henderson Is one which occurred In 1891. The Atlantic Hook and Ladder Company was called out to a Are. At Union Hall a Btranger shouted to the firemen that they were going in the wrong direction, and that the Are was to the northwest.

The Aremen turned around, as directed, and ran up Flushing avenue. Finally when they reached more open country they found that the blaze ahead of them was nothing more than the FLUSHING VIEW AT FLUSHING i Choice Lots. $300 Up. Highest Altitudes. 15 Minutes When Tunnels Are Completed.

P.Wheeler Realty Selling Agents trustees of the said fife company, and that the trustees, when elected, shall have power to elect a fire warden, and that the number of firemen for the management of the fire engine may be Increased to the number of eighteen men." Jamaica Village Incorporated in 1814 The affairs of the fire company went along smoothly for a number of years. In 1814 the village was Incorporated, and it assumed the management of the firemen, but did hot make any alteration in their affairs until May 14, 1849, when the engine company was disbanded and reorganized. The company of the original engine carried along with It a hook and ladder apparatus, and some of the members of the fire company kept themselves together in the hook and ladder portion of It and were not disbanded with the engine company, thereby making a contnnuous service from April 1, 1797, until the present time. It seems that there was no uniform adopted until May 31, 1849, when the red shirt, red worsted cap with black front and figure 1 on same, came Into use.

Old Town's First Fire House. It Is said that the engine company and the hook and ladder company were first located in the southwest corner of the Presbyterlsn Church yard, the engine house being fronted on the Btreat and the hook and ladder company apparatus In the rear of the engine house. In 1855, the trustees of the village built a house on Union avenue, for Protection Engine and Atlantle Hook and Ladder companies, which was added to for a house for Eagle Hose Company, organized In 1865. Eagle Hose was in existence for many years and finally disbanded because of some irregularities. Shortly after its dlsband-ment, Degrauw Hose Company was organized, September 7, 1871, and continued In service until about 1S8S, when it also was disbanded.

Neptune Engine Company No. 2 wob organized April 9, 1849. This engine company was composed of some of Jamaica's best citizens and the members were at times called the "Silk Stockings." The engine was brought to Jamaica new, In 1868, and on September 20, 1865, went to Flushing to compete In a water throwing contest. The Neptunes were the winners, bringing back with them a fine silver trumpet, now In possession of the Jamaica Veteran Volunteer Firemen's As SHELTER ISLAND.
