were powerless to stop the rush. but
what they failed to do was accom-

shooting from the windows Of the
building, held back the throng.
The students. who ranged in years
from seven to thirteen, were in
charge of 16 sisters. When the fire

from one OF the throng. II was taken
up by hundred others. and panic

children fell under the feet Of those
behind them. and soon the vestibuie

entrance. The sixteen sisters escaped
