A dangerous wagon journey through a forest fire
A family of three from Frackville to Shenandoah rode in a farm wagon when a forest fire appeared on both sides of the road. The horses panicked, the wagon burned paint from the heat, and Mrs Ufner fainted as the party crossed flames. They escaped with minor burns and were unharmed. Advertisements for London Hair Color Restorer follow the narrative.
