The destruction by fire of the First NJ
Z. church, says the Little Rock Gazette,
supplemented by the injury of two
brave fremen, one of whom has gone
to his reward, is public calamity, and
is deeply deplored The sympathy of
all goes out to those who suffer on ac-
count of the loss. The heroic firemen
who risked their lives in their
efforts To save the property de-
served a better fate. They were
injured at the post of duty in a
calling in which none but the brave,
fearless and self-sacrifcing ever under
take to follow. by the acts of these
two men demonstrated their fitness to
respond to any call of duty however
frought with danger the consequences
might be. Every heart in Little Rock
beats with sympathy for the home
made desolate by the tragic death of
the brave fire-fghter.
