tic just before the fire started in
the mattress.
THIS WEEK Hickman was re-
ported to have told police that
Coleman, after being wounded, had
confessed that he set the fire.
Hickman said:
''He admitted it when he thought
l was going to kill him"
For Hickman. that confession
confirmed the terrible suspicion
that had filled him in the half year
since the fire, six months spent
in mourning for his lost young
ones.
During that time three court
hearings had been held on COM
plants that the building violated
fire, health, and building ordi-
nances. Such complaints had been
made since 1920, without notice
able effect.
"That's what made Mr.. Hick-
man so fulled up" Wilson ex-
planned ''They wouldn't let him
talk in court. He couldn't even
talk up about the kids"
THE HICKMANS moved out
after the fire, but four families
still live in the rat-infested,
charred wreckage of the building,
because they can find no place
to move to. There is no water
in the building, no gas, no cleo
tricity.
Pulling one of her grandchildren
to her side. Mrs. Wilson declared:
Il want some other place to
live. Even if they fixed it all
over. I don't want to live here
after those kids who used to
listen to my radio used
TO play right here suffo-
Gated to death in this building
by fire. don't want to live
here!"
More quietly, her hus b n d
pleaded for aid for Hickman:
'We want to help him. He
loved his kids. 1t was mighty
hard on him, losing them that way.
We want to help him :"
