Quick Work

Firemen Fight Blaze in
Partition of Millett
Home.
Three Engines Called Out

Prompt response on the part OF
the Fire department, when its
members answered an alarm to
the home of Mrs. Rachel Millett,
80 E. Lorraine avenue, yesterday
morning, probably saved that bull
ding from being badly damaged
by fire which had started in the
basement, and burned up through
the partitions to the roof.
When firemen arrived at the
scene, the building was in cloud
of smoke. Men who searched
through the various rooms failed
to locate the fire. Before it was
found, weather boards on the out
side of the building had to be torn
off in several plances. Chemical,
forced between the partitions,
soon put the blaze out. ~
Damage was estimated by Chief
w. J. Hudson to be about 5000,
said to be covered by insurance.
The Milletts had moved into the
house but a few weeks before, and
had just got their furniture plac-
ed. The fire is believed to have
been started from fire in the
heater, where trash was being
burned.
All three pieces of apparatus
answered the alarm. A hose was
laid, but it was found that it was
not necessary to use it.
