reason in the world why the 8 brit

likewise not thc slightest reason in
the world for the doing or saving Of
anything mean or uukind to :,
brother III the same cause in which
we are all striving-or should he
slriving-to do the most good for

ter the firemen though they knew there
was large quantity of explosives on

Acting Chief Sullivan saved many
lives by opening hatch and letting
a long ladder down into the hold.

shortly before midnight, the first hold
was choked up with smoke The cargo
apparently had been slowly burning for
hours.
1t required the united efforts Of many
