A Severe Electric Shock Received By Assist
ant Fire Chief Dale OF brooklyn.
Assistant Chief Engineer James Dale OF the
Brooklyn Fire Department. who has been act
ing as Chief since Mr.. Nevlns retired. had q
perilous experience with an electric wire early
yesterday morning. He was walking through
willoughby street and was returning to Fire
Headquarters In Lawrence street from slight
IRE in the Germania building when he noticed
q small wire dangling over the sidewalk near
Jay street Some people were approaching.
and. fearing that they might come In contact
with II, he caught the wire IN his ungloved
hand and gave q tug.
Instantly he made q wild leap In the air and
fell in a heap In the middle OF tho street. He
was picked up dazed. and he l.mpad around
TO headquarters with the aid Of some OF the
spectators. In the fall he bruised his knees
and elbows
il turned out that the wire was in contact
with an electric light wire, and that he had re-
ceivsd severe shock. The electricians Of the
department think that he owes his life TO
heavy rubber boots that he wore. He thus
described his sensations;
When / grabbed the wire first II did not
hurt me. but as frightened 1t something oc-
Cured which ] cannot explain. There was Q
horrible shock that seemed to whiz all
through me. The top OF my head seemed TO
fly on, and knew nothing more until found
