partment being present the courtcsics
OF the floor We're extended them and
Chief w. j. Weymouth and DR.. Frank
Shield addressed the body concerning
the absence OF the engineer at the fire
last Monday when the Hampton Femme
College was destroyed by fire. Mr..
Weymouth said that he wished to ask
that some steps be taken requiring the
inglneer and driver to have some one in
their place before they left the city
He said the department felt very mu III
mortified over losing the college build
ing for had the engineer been on hand
he was confident the building could
have been saved and the department
which has always been successful in its
fires would have had another victory
added to its already long list. DR..
Shield took the same View of the stua-
ton as did Chief Weymouth and he in
sisted upon the council taking some
steps at once.
Aftcer listening to these gentlemen
MI Cumming offered resolution that
the chair appoint committee to meet
L committee from the Fire Department
for the expressed purpose of probing
the matter and they are to make 4 report

changes as the two committees deem
cNpettient and for the best interest Of
the department. The motion was unan-
imously carried. President Hope named
the Fire Committee as the proper one to
take UP this question
