who gazed upon it. 1t was intensified by the
dizzy height from which the victims were

timber and other inflammable material.
Deeds of heroism were done by the firemen
who perished and those who live to grieve
over their lost comrades. The Columbian
Guardsmen were not lacking in
bravery and devotion to duty
in the hour of danger, and even
in the face of death. There 10 mourning z
