" In the face of this greater catastrophe our own troubles were forgotten, and I turned my attention at once to the succor of the stricken village. I directed Mulligan to go across the river to Menominee to find my brothers, — ISAAC STEPHENSON 179 Robert, one of the owners and superintendent of the Lud- ington, Wells and Van Schaick Company, and Samuel M. Stephenson, one of the owners and manager of the Kirby Carpenter Company, — and ask them to send men and teams to Peshtigo. In the meantime w...e made pre- parations for the care of the injured and refugees. By nightfall we had turned the Dunlap Hotel in Marinette into a hospital in which forty-three patients who had been burned were installed. On Tuesday morning I drove over to Menominee, while the country was still overhung with a pall of smoke from the smoldering forest, to send out appeals for aid. We were isolated from the rest of the world because of the destruction of the telegraph lines and had not even heard of the great fire which had swept Chicago and laid it in ruins at the same hour that we were battling with the flames.
