Wilson King on sightings in the lumber woods

And after the fire was out, I never seen it before and never seen it since but I’m after hearing the old people talking about it, the winner lights, out on the ocean you’ll see them.  “winner” lights they call them.  And after that, when we had the fire almost conquered, you get out in the night and you look out and somewhere you’d see a fire blazing up.

And you go to dout the fire there’s be no fire there and you look somewhere else and it’s be like somebody walking along with a flashlight. And perhaps you’d get somewhere then where it would look like big birch or something or another burning right to the top and you’d know there was no birch there. I never seen it before or since. T’was ”winner” lights they called them.
