Your house is on fire！’” Nick remembered it was about 9 a．m.that the firefighters put out the fire.

Beverly Penny and her husband，Clark，along with their younger daughters，were sleeping in the living room，next to the kitchen，when they heard Nick beating on the walls.She opened the bedroom door and black smoke came in.She managed to get her kids out.Her dog tried to hide under the bed，but Penny caught it by the leg and threw it out of the door.However，chickens in one of the rooms weren't so lucky.

Firefighters got the call about 7：05 a．m.“When we arrived with our fire trucks，there were heavy flames outside on the house，” Jerry said.He called Nick a hero，saying that without his quick response (反应) the result could have been much worse.The firefighters were fast.”Nick said.“They arrived here within about three minutes.”

“They did a great job，and I can't thank them enough.” Penny said，then looked at what remained in the house and shook her head as tears rolled down in her eyes.“Everything I have is gone.Luckily nobody was hurt in the fire.” She said the fire could have been caused by an electrical problem.“We've been having problems with mice，so that could have had something to do with it，”she added.
