Great Conflagration in Spit alfields

(THIS DAY).

At an early hour in the morning the inhabitants of the
industriousand densely-populated neighbourhood of Spital-
fields were thrown into a painful state of excitement, in
consequence of the outbreak of a fire, which was nearly
attended with fatal results to two firemen. The premises
in which the misfortune commenced belonged to Mr. Eau-
grave, a looking-glass frame-maker, carrying on business
at 15, Fashion-street, Spitalfields. The discovery was
made by a police-constable of the H division, by seeing an
unusual glare of light in one of the upper rooms.
The constable at once sounded an alarm, and the
inmates, consisting of two men and two boys, who
were sleeping on the ground floor, managed to escape before
the flames reached the lower part of the premises. Con-
ductors S. V ood and W. Joles promptly attended with the
Royal Society's escapes; and Turner, the parish engineer,
and the engineer of Christ Church parish followed, and
also several engines of the London Brigade and two
powerful land steamers by Shand, Mason, and Co., under
the direction of Mr. Gatehouse, the chief officer of the A
district, and the Hon. Colonel Armytage. Fortunately
the mains of the East London Company yielded a good
supply of water, and the firemen, taking advantage of the
same, had the steam and manual power engines set to work,
but by that time the roof had fallen in, and the third,
second, and first floors were in a thorough state of ignition,
owing to the flames descending from room to room with
such rapidity. The firemen, however, nothing daunted,
carried the hose of their engines up the ladders, in order to
discharge the water into the principal seat of the confla-
gration, and, whilst so engaged, the rounds of one of the
ladder broke, and two firemen who had been standing
thereon with the heavy hose charged with water were
precipitated from the second floor to the ground. Strange
to say, neither of them received any other injury than a
severe shaking. The fire was ultimately extinguished,
but not until the premises, with the exception of a small
part of the sleeping apartments, were destroyed. Tho
total loss is very considerable. The origin of the fire is
unknown, bnt it is understood that the sufferer . was
insured.
