"Fire on Big Creek four miles away. People at Avery fled for their lives Sunday.
Buddie went up Friday night and was there to come out on the relief train.
Brought Jessie, Marjorie and a woman down with him.
Ralph Debitt telephoned today that Avery did not burn and they had hopes of saving the town.
The situation has been very serious-the worst in years."
