women proved themselves heroines in
a fire which practically destroyed the
boarding house of II. A. Grow.
They fought their way through the
flames in the Railways to the rooms
of the other boarders and did not stop
until all had escaped from the build
ing.
The young women, Miss Anna Ro-
senholm and Miss Amelia Berg, we're
asleep In a room on the first floor.
They were awakened by smoke. They
went into the hallway and found
flames blocking their way.
Without waiting to dress they
fought their way to the second floor,
screaming and pounding on doors.
When all had been aroused they
managed to reach the front door and
went into the street. There were
many narrow escapes.
The heroism of Walter Smith prob
ably saved two women and a man.
They were sleeping on the second
floor. He stood on a window ledge
and calmly swung them. one by one,
to a window of the house next door.
