 ar/Detail.aspx?si=57455\n\nJoin us Saturday\, May 18 in front of Friendsh
 ip Firehouse Museum at 107 South Alfred Street for a muster of antique\, 
 hand-drawn firefighting apparatus. Participating vehicles will include 19
 th-century suction fire engines and hose reel carriages. Suction engines\
 , invented in the early 19th century\, drew water from wells\, hydrants\,
  and other sources through a hose\, and provided a powerful and constant 
 stream of water. The first hoses were typically made in 50-foot lengths\,
  and only a few pieces could be carried on the fire engine itself\, so ad
 ditional vehicles were created specifically to carry extra lengths of hos
 e.    \n\nFire was a constant danger in a town of mostly wooden buildings
 \, where open flames provided heat\, light\, and cooking.  The Friendship
 \, Sun\, Relief\, Hydraulion\, and Star volunteer fire companies served t
 he community faithfully\, particularly during enormous blazes in 1827\, 1
 855\, and 1871. \n\nFriendship Firehouse Museum's historic firefighting v
 ehicles includes the Prettyman Hose Reel Carriage\, built in Alexandria i
 n 1858 by coachmaker\, and Friendship Fire Company member\, Robert Pretty
 man. It was ornately decorated and fitted with two large bells to sound t
 he alarm as the vehicle bounced through Alexandria's streets. Thanks to f
 undraising efforts led by the Friendship Veterans Fire Engine Association
 \, the Prettyman hose carriage recently underwent much needed conservatio
 n\, returning to Friendship Firehouse in 2022.  \n\nOver 15 additional ho
 se reel carriages and suction engines from throughout the region will be 
 on display outside of the Friendship Firehouse Museum on the 100 block of
  South Alfred Street. Friendship & Firefighting in Alexandria is sponsore
 d by the Friendship Veterans Fire Engine Association and the Office of Hi
