Central room upstairs. However,
in short order the flames were
arrested.
The operators on duty at the
time were Mrs James Thread
gill, chief operator, and misses
Essie Clark and Frances Gaddy.
Miss Belle Gibson had just been
relieved, and she and Miss Mary
Fields, bookkeeper, were in the
outer office talking. They noticed
the room filling with smoke, but
at first thought it was Efrom the
Hotel kitchen. In a few seconds
it perceptibly increased. The
two girls decided something
must be wrong, so they ran
downstairs and into the hotel to
ask Mr.. Moore (who was install
ing the hotel phone SYSTEM to
come and sect anything was the
matter But in the brief interval
it took them to go and return,
the fire had gained strong head
way and the upstairs had COM
pletely filled with smoke, so
much so that Misses Clark and
Gaddy;had gotten out by way of
the stairs, with Mrs. Threadgill
staying moment longer in order
TO phone Manager Morris at
Hamlet that the building was on
fire. When she, too, turned to
leave she found the way cut off
by smoke. By this time Moore
and Hunsworth had pushed
through the smoke into the room,
and raising the window the
three made their escape this way
and down. a ladder that persons
outside had raised.
The building is owned by Mrs.
W. B. Stansill, whose loss is fully
covered by insurance. The chief
damage was by water to the
large switchboard of the Sou.
Bell. Within half an hour after
the fire the company had "cut
IN" a long distance line to a
phone nailed to a post outside
the building so that the town
could have at least one long dis
lance connection. Material was
ordered by Morris and Clark
from Charlotte, and small stoves
placed in the room in order to
dry out the switchboard. A
steaGy temperature was main
tanned for "a hours, and by Sun.
day night the phone service was
resumed. The public. is appreci-
ative of the promptness with
which the Sou. Bell officials went
to work in this restoration; and
