REPORT. 


Chief  Engineer's  Office, 

City  Hall,  January  1,  1873. 

To  His  Honor  the  Mayor,  and  City  Council  :  — 

Gentlemen  :  — I  have  the  honor  to  present  the  Thirteenth  Annual 
Report  of  the  Steam  Fire  Department  of  this  city,  it  being  the 
Thirty-fifth  Annual  Report  since  the  organization  of  the  depart- 
ment. 

Under  their  several  heads,  forming  a  part  of  this  report,  I 
present  a  detailed  statement  of  its  organization,  the  cost  of  main- 
taining the  same,  a  list  of  all  fires  occurring  in  our  city  during  the 
past  municipal  year,  also  the  number  of  hydrants  and  reservoirs 
where  water  can  be  obtained  in  case  of  fire,  with  the  location  of  the 
latter,  their  capacity,  etc.  The  loss  and  insurance  on  fires  are  presented 
in  detail,  with  the  exception  of  the  great  fire  of  Nov.  9th  and  10th, 
which  I  find  impossible  to  present  in  this  report.  I  trust  the  rec- 
ommendations which  I  deem  it  my  duty  to  submit,  will  commend 
themselves  to  the  judgment  of  your  honorable  body. 

The  department  as  now  organized  is  as  follows :  — 

At  the  commencement  of  each  municipal  year  there  is  appointed 
by  His  Honor  the  Mayor,  and  President  of  the  Common  Council, 
a  Joint  Standing  Committee  on  the  Fire  Department,  composed 
of  three  members  of  the  Board  of  Aldermen,  and  five  from  the 
Common  Council.  This  Committee  have  charge  of  the  financial 
interests  of  the  department,  having  authority  by  the  ordinances  of 
the  city  to  spend  such  sums  of  money  for  its  maintenance  as  the 
wants  of  the  department  seem  to  require  from  time  to  time,  when 
such  expenditure  does  not  exceed  the  sum  of  five  hundred  dollars. 
All  expenditures  over  that  sum  must  be  authorized  by  a  concurrent 
vote  of  the  City  Council. 


4  City  Document,  —  No.  58. 

The  Board  of  Engineers  are  elected  by  the  concurrent  vote  of 
the  City  Council,  in  the  month  of  February  or  March,  and  hold 
their  office  for  one  year,  or  until  their  successors  are  chosen. 
This  Board,  when  organized,  have  full  control  of  both  officers  and 
members,  as  well  as  all  of  the  houses,  horses,  and  apparatus,  and 
are  also  made  responsible  for  the  good  conduct  of  the  men  ;  and 
by  the  ordinance  of  the  cit}?,  section  4,  they  are  authorized  to 
make  such  rules  and  regulations  for  the  extinguishment  of  fires,  as 
they  in  their  judgment  may  from  time  to  time  determine,  such 
rules  being  subject  to  the  approval  of  the  Joint  Standing  Com- 
mittee on  Fire  Department.  There  is  also  elected  in  the  month  of 
April,  a  Secretary  of  the  Board  of  Engineers,  said  officer  being 
recommended  by  the  Board  of  Engineers,  who  holds  his  office  for 
the  term  of  one  j^ear.  The  rank  and  file  of  the  department  is  as 
follows  :  Four  hundred  and  fifty-nine  members,  who  are  recom- 
mended by  the  Board  of  Engineers,  appointed  by  His  Honor  the 
Mayor,  confirmed  by  the  Board  of  Aldermen,  and  who  hold  their 
position  as  firemen  during  good  behavior.  They  are  divided  into 
42  companies,  as  follows:  21  Steam  Engine  Companies,  11  Horse 
Hose  Companies,  7  Hook  and  Ladder  Companies,  and  3  Extin- 
guisher Corps. 

Each  engine  company  in  the  City  Proper, East  and  South  Boston, 
and  Dorchester  District  (with  the  exception  of  those  companies 
hereinafter  named),  has  an  engineman,  fireman  and  driver  (who 
are  permanently  employed),  and  eight  hosemen,  who  do  duty  only 
at  fires  ;  one  of  the  last  number  is  designated  as  foreman  of  the 
hose.  Engine  Company  No.  6  of  the  City  Proper,  Engine  Com- 
panies Nos.  16  and  17,  of  Ward  16,  with  Engine  Companies  Nos. 
12,  13,  and  14,  located  in  the  "  Roxbury  District,"  are  composed 
of  an  engineman,  fireman  and  two  drivers, — one  to  drive  the 
engine  and  the  other  the  hose  carriage,  —  who  are  permanently 
employed  ;  and  eight  hosemen  who  do  duty  only  at  fires.  The  hose 
carriages  in  this  district  are  drawn  to  fires  separately  from  the 
engines,  instead  of  being  attached  as  in  the  other  portions  of  the 
city. 

Each  hose  company  has  a  driver  (who  is  permanently  employed) 
and  eight  hosemen,  who  do  duty  only  at  fires,  and  one  of  this  num- 
ber is  designated  as  foreman  of  the  hose.

CONDITION    OF   THE    DEPARTMENT. 

At  the  close  of  the  municipal  year  the  twenty-one  Steam  Fire 
Engines  in  commission  were  in  thorough  repair  and  perfect  work- 
ing order,  with  the  exception  of  Melville  Engine  No.  6,  which 
is  at  the  Amoskeag  Works  being  thoroughly  overhauled.  The 
five  auxiliary  engines  are  also  in  thorough  repair  and  good  work- 
ing condition.  The  several  Hose  Carriages  connected  with  this 
department  are  also  in  thorough  repair,  with  the  exception  of  those 
used  by  Engines  Nos.  12,  13  and  14,  which  will  have  to  be  replaced 
during  the  present  municipal  year.  The  Ladder  Carriages  are 
also  in  good  repair.  The  several  pieces  of  apparatus  connected 
with  this  department,  such  as  Extinguisher  Wagons  and  Coal 
Wagons,  are  in  good  condition. 

I  was  enabled  to  maintain  the  maximum  strength  of  the  Steam 
force  by  telegraphing  on  Sunday  the  10th  day  of  November,  to  the 
agent  of  the  Amoskeag  Works,  Manchester,  N.  H.,  to  send  by 
express  duplicates  of  such  parts  of  the  machinery  as  were  liable 
to  give  out,  with  a  corps  of  workmen  from  their  works  to  aid  and 
assist  in  placing  the  apparatus  in  the  best  possible  condition  and 
ready  for  any  demand  that  should  be  made  upon  it.  Owing  to  the 
large  destruction  of  hosf1,  telegrams  were  sent  to  New  York,  which 


Fire  Department.  9 

were  duly  answered,  and  in  three  days  a  full  complement  of  new 
hose  was  purchased  and  delivered,  and  this  department  rendered 
as  strong  and  effective  as  it  was  previous  to  the  fire. 

A  majority  of  the  horses  have  recovered  from  the  epidemic,  and 
the  places  of  those  still  unable  to  work  are  temporarily  supplied  by 
hire. 

NEW  APPARATUS. 

Four  Steam  Fire  Engines  have  been  purchased,  —  three  from 
the  works  of  Messrs.  Hunneman  &  Co.  and  one  from  the  Amos- 
keag  Works,  Manchester,  N.  H.  These  engines  were  built  under 
the  immediate  supervision  of  Messrs.  Cole,  Engineinan  of  No.  12, 
Traver  of  Engine  No.  6  and  Ray  of  Engine  No.  1,  who  were 
appointed  by  the  Chief  as  Inspectors  of  Steam-Fire  Engines. 

They  were  placed,  upon  their  completion,  immediately  in  the 
service  of  the  city,  and  have  proved  themselves  to  be  engines  of 
superior  powers,  reflecting  the  highest  honor  and  credit  upon  the 
builders. 

Two  Hook  and  Ladder  Carriages  have  also  been  purchased, 
one  of  which  has  been  placed  in  the  service  of  the  city,  in  Hook 
and  Ladder  House  No.  4,  and  the  other  will  be  located  in  the  Dor- 
chester District  in  Hook  and  Ladder  House  No.  6.  These  were 
also  from  the  works  of  Messrs.  Hunneman  &  Co.  There  were  also 
contracted  for,  two  Horse-Hose  Carriages,  —  the  "Webster"  No. 
11  and  the  "Gaston "No.  12,  —  one  for  East  Boston,  and  the 
other  for  South  Boston  Point.  There  have  also  been  purchased  and 
placed  in  commission  two  Extinguisher  Wagons  and  two  Coal 
Wagons,  —  one  Extinguisher  Wagon  for  East  Boston  and  one  for 
the  City  Proper,  —  the  Coal  Wagons  for  the  Dorchester  District. 
There  have  also  been  purchased  fifty  Fire  Extinguishers  of  the  Bab- 
cock  pattern.  This  was  necessary  to  replace  those  destroyed  at  the 
fire  of  Nov.  9th.  There  also  has  been  contracted  for,  an  Iron  Fire- 
Boat,  of  the  following  dimensions,  which  was  placed  in  the  service 
January  1st,  1873.  The  fire-boat  is  about  fifty-five  tons 
measurement,  and  measures  seventy-five  feet  in  length,  fifteen  feet 
beam  and  seven  feet  in  depth.  Her  hull  is  built  of  iron,  the  keel, 
stem  and  stern  posts  being  of  hammered  metal,  and  the  frames, 
which  are  of  reverse  angle  iron,  spread  twenty-one  inches  between 


10  City  Document.  —  No.  58. 

centres,  are  stiffened  by  vertical  floor  plates.  Three  keelsons 
extend  the  entire  length  of  the  boat.  The  forecastle  below  deck 
is  fitted  with  berths,  table,  seats  and  lockers  for  the  accommodation 
of  the  men.  The  house  on  deck  has  a  cabin,  engine,  boiler,  cook 
and  hose  rooms,  all  of  which  are  finished  in  a  substantial  and  work- 
manlike manner.  The  pilot-house  is  on  top  of  the  main  house  over 
the  hose-room,  and  is  fitted  with  seats  and  mahogany  steering- 
wheel  ;  a  hand-rail  extends  around  the  house  to  prevent  accident, 
and  the  top  is  covered  with  tin  to  ensure  safety  from  fire.  The 
main  engine  is  vertical,  direct  acting,  high  pressure,  with  link 
motion  and  independent  cut-off  valve.  Its  diameter-  of  cylinder  is 
seventeen  inches  and  seventeen-inch  stroke.  The  propeller  is  six 
feet  in  diameter,  with  five  inches  wrought-iron  shaft ;  two  force 
pumps  driven  from  the  main  shaft,  and  one  steam  pump  for  feed- 
ing the  boiler,  and  a  steam  siphon  pump  for  the  bilge.  The 
boiler  is  an  upright  tubular,  with  cylindrical  fire-box,  twenty-four 
feet  grate  surface.  The  whole  power  of  the  fire-engine  machinery 
is  equal  in  capacity  to  four  first-class  fire  engines,  and  with  all  in 
action  will  play  eight  streams  at  one  time.  This  machinery  was 
built  by  the  Amoskeag  Manufacturing  Company,  and  of  the  same 
design  as  their  steam  fire  engines.  The  boat,  main  engine, 
machinery  and  boiler  were  built  by  the  Atlantic  Works,  East  Bos- 
ton. The  experience  of  the  past  years  has  shown  conclusively 
that  this  boat  will  prove  a  valuable  and  effective  auxiliary  to  our 
Fire  Department,  commanding  as  it  does  a  larger  field  of  operation 
than  any  four  steam  fire  engines  in  commission.  For  the  cost  of 
new  apparatus,  as  purchased  during  the  past  year,  see  table  of 
expenditures. 

ADDITIONAL    APPABATUS. 

I  would  recommend  the  purchase  of  three  additional  Steam  Fire 
Engines,  of  the  size  and  capacity  of  Engine  No.  4,  —  one  to  be 
located  in  Ward  4,  near  the  Custom  House,  one  in  Ward  6,  and 
the  other  in  Ward  14.  I  would  also  recommend  the  purchase  of  a 
Hook  and  Ladder  Carriage  to  be  located  in  Ward  4,  also  two  of 
the  Babcock  self-acting  fire  engines,  one  to  be  located  in  Bulfinch 
street  and  the  other  at  the  south  section  of  our  city  ;  also  a  Horse 
Hose  Carriage  to  be  located  in  Longwood.

FIRE-ESCAPES. 

In  considering  the  wants  of  this  department,  in  order  to  promote 
its  greater  efficiency,  I  have  deemed  it  desirable  that  there  should 
be  constructed  a  combination  ladder  and  fire-escape.  This  should 
be  so  arranged  that  it  could  be  raised  to  an  elevation  of  eighty 
feet  or  more,  in  two  minutes'  time.  When  in  position,  every  floor 
of  a  six-story  building  should  be  accessible  from  the  ladder  at  one 
and  the  same  time.  The  escape  should  be  so  arranged  that  the 
sick,  aged,  or  crippled  could  be  rescued  from  either  story,  and 
their  transit  to  the'  street  rendered  safe  and  easy. 

The  demand  for  such  an  escape  is  so  evident,  that  I  am  confi- 
dent it  will  commend  itself  to  the  City  Council;  and  should  in- 
ducement be  offered,  I  have  no  doubt  the  inventive  genius  of  our 
people  would  soon  construct  such  an  one  as  would  commend  itself 
to  our  judgment. 

In  addition,  I  deem  it  my  duty  to  recommend  to  the  City  Coun- 
cil that  an  ordinance,  be  passed,  compelling  the  owners  of  hotels, 
manufacturing  establishments,  and  workshops  where  men  or  wom- 
en are  employed  in  the  upper  stories,  to  maintain  permanent  fire- 
escapes  from  their  several  buildings  ;  said  escapes  to  be  approved 
by  the  Inspector  of  Buildings. 

RECEIPTS    AND    EXPENDITURES. 

The  expenses  of  the  past  year  have  been  as  follows  :  For  sala- 
ries of  the  members,  as  per  vote  of  the  City  Council,  $221,076,06. 
For  the  purchase  of  new  apparatus,  horses,  and  harnesses, 
$23,765.48.  For  new  Fire-boat,  $19,893.95.  For  the  expense  of 
the  Committee  on  Fire  Department,  $3,359.92.  For  the  parade  Of 
the  department  upon  the  anniversary  of  the  settlement  of  Boston, 
$3,344.62.  For  appropriation  made  by  the  City  Council  for  the 
relief  of  injured  firemen,  $800.00.  For  the  purchase  of  hose,  and 
repairing,  $59,038.04.  For  the  use  of  water  for  the  extinguishment 
of  fires,  charged  to  the  appropriation  of  this  department,  as  per 
vote  of  the  City  Council,  $75,062.00.  For  repairs  on  hydrants 
and  reservoirs,  $767.08.  For  expenses  of  the  Coliseum,  $2,551.30. 
For  the  furnishing  of  supplies,  such  as  fuel,  gas,  hay,  grain,  oils, 
etc.,  $109,727.65. 


12  City  Document. — No.  58. 

The  receipts  of  the  department  the  past  year,  for  the  sale  of 
manure,  condemned  hose,  old  material,  and  horses  that  became 
unfit  for  service,  amount  to  $1,914.&6,  which  has  been  paid  into 
the  City  Treasury. 

For  a  detailed  statement  of  the  expenditures  of  this  department, 
see  table  of  expenditures. 

WATER  FOR  FIRE  PURPOSES. 

The  increase  of  our  city  in  area  and  population,  and  also  in  the 
magnitude  and  height  of  its  public  buildings,  extensive  warehouses, 
and  private  residences,  has  correspondingly  increased  our  liability 
to  conflagrations.  This  should  not  be  so,  but  the  fact  is  not  to  be 
denied,  as  it  is  fully  proved  by  the  annual  increase  in  the  number 
of  fires  occurring,  and  value  of  property  consumed.  As  water  is 
the  only  element  at  present  used  in  the  extinguishment  of  fire,  it 
would  seem  that  wisdom  and  prudence  should  have  provided  an 
abundant  supply  for  this  purpose.  But,  for  some  cause,  this  press- 
ing want  for  the  protection  of  our  city  has  been  set  aside.  Upon 
the  introduction  of  Cochituate  water,  our  citizens  indulged  largely 
in  the  belief  that  a  considerable  portion  of  the  Fire  Department 
could  be  dispensed  with.  So  prevalent  was  this  opinion  at  that 
time,  that  the  City  Council  disbanded  a  large  number  of  Engine 
Companies,  and  relied  upon  the  flow  of  water  from  hydrants  for 
the  extinguishment  of  fires.  At  the  time  of  the  introduction  of 
Cochituate,  the  number  of  water-takers  was  comparatively  small, 
water-closets  were  the  exception  rather  than  the  rule,  the  water- 
pipes,  being  new,  were  free  from  sediment,  and  yet,  in  many  sec- 
tions of  the  city,  the  pipes  proved  too  small  to  meet  the  demand  in 
'  cases  of  emergency.  For  this  reason  the  hand-engines  were  again 
resorted  to  for  the  protection  of  the  city.  This  difficulty  of  a 
short  supply  of  water  has  been  constantly  growing  worse,  both 
from  the  increase  in  the  number  of  water-takers,  and  from  the 
deposit  of  sediment  in  the  pipes,  decreasing  their  capacity.  From 
the  increased  height  of  buildings,  and  other  causes,  it  was  felt  that 
better  appliances  were  needed,  and  steam  fire-engines  were  early 
introduced.  Their  capacity  for  throwing  water  was  much  greater 
than  that  of  the  engines  previously  in  use,  yet  no  steps  were  taken 


Fire  Depaetment.  13 

by  those  in  authority  to  give  them  an  adequate  supply.  The  dis- 
tributing pipes  and  hydrants  in  the  city  proper  are  the  same  as 
originally  introduced  (except  in  a  few  instances),  and  their 
capacity  is  much  reduced  by  sediment  being  constantly  deposited. 
As  chief  of  this  department,  I  deemed  it  my  duty  to  lay  the  facts 
before  the  City  Council,  in  my  annual  reports  for  1867,  1868,  and 
1869,  in  the  following  words  :  — 

"  HYDRANTS. 

"  During  the  past  three  years,  at  large  fires,  much  difficulty  has 
been  experienced  for  the  want  of  an  adequate  supply  of  water  for 
our  steam  fire  engines ;  the  immediate  cause  of  this  failure  is 
this,  namely  :  — 

"  That  the  hydrants,  in  every  instance,  are  placed  upon  branch 
pipes,  the  diameter  of  which  varies  from  three  to  four  inches, 
while  the  mains  themselves,  in  almost  every  instance,  are  but  four 
inches  in  diameter,  that  supply  them. 

"  In  case  of  fire,  the  hydrant  upon  these  branch  pipes  will  afford 
a  supply  to  only  one  steamer  ;  all  others  on  the  line  are  useless  ; 
the  steamer  being  at  work,  makes  a  vacuum  in  the  pipe  by  drawing 
the  water  to  the  hydrant  first  tapped. 

"  The  result  of  this  difficulty  is,  that  much  time  is  consumed  in 
shifting  the  apparatus  to  lines  of  pipe  in  other  streets,  by  reason 
of  which,  long  continuous  lines  of  hose  have  to  be  used  to  con- 
vey the  water  to  the  scene  of  conflagration  ;  and,  by  this  operation, 
the  amount  of  friction  to  overcome  is  very  great,  requiring  often- 
times a  water  pressure  from  180  to  200  pounds  to  the  square  inch, 
to  be  effectual  in  our  high  buildings. 

"  To  overcome  this  evil,  I  would  suggest  that  upon  our  main 
thoroughfares  hydrants  be  connected  with  the  main  pipes,  of  size 
not  less  than  eight  inches  in  diameter,  with  a  proper  outlet,  which 
would  give  us  a  supply  of  water  fully  equal,  if  not  more  than  we 
now  get  from  six  of  the  ordinary  hydrants. 

"  One  of  these  hydrants  would  afford  a  supply  for  three  of  our 
engines,  with  one-third  the  amount  of  hose  now  used  to  reach  the 
fire.  The  pressure  upon  the  hose  would  be  reduced  thirty  per 
cent.,  and  the  bursting  correspondingly  decreased."

WATER. 

There  are  two  thousand  six  hundred  and  six  hydrants,  and 
ninety-six  reservoirs,  where  water  can  be  obtained  in  case  of  fire, 
which  are  charged  to  the  Appropriation  for  Fire  Department  by 
the  Water  Board,  at  the  rate  of  $18.00  a  piece,  making  a  total  of 
$48,636.00  for  the  use  of  water  for  the  extinguishment  of  fires. 
There  is  also  charged  to  this  department,  by  the  Water  Works, 
for  furnishing  and  keeping  in  repair  the  hydrants  and  reservoirs, 
the  sum  of  $32,256.00,  making  a  total  of  $80,892.00. 

HOSE. 

There  is  in  the  department  66,205  feet  at  the  close  of  the  muni- 
cipal year,  classed  as  follows  :  — 

14,537  feet  of  leather  —  of  excellent  quality. 

7,998    "     "       "      —  "  inferior

66,205 


There  were  destroyed  at  the  fire  of  Nov.  9th,  10th  and  11th  in 
this  city,  20,900  feet  of  hose.  There  had  been  condemned  pre- 
viously to  the  great  fire  3,723  feet  of  hose  of  all  kinds,  making  a 
total  of  24,623  feet. 

To  meet  this  deficiency  and  supply  the  Hose  Co.  at  East  Boston, 
the  new  Fire  Boat,  the  Institution  at  Deer  Island,  and  to  replace 
that  destroyed  belonging  to  the  several  cities  and  towns  who  an- 
swered our  summons  for  help  (amounting  to  8,000  feet),  there 
have  been  purchased  and  added  to  the  account  of  this  department 
46,000  feet  of  hose.  The  following  is  the  standard  adopted  by  this 
department  for  leather  hose  :  — 

STANDARD    FOR   HOSE. 

Pure  oak,  city  tanned,  Baltimore,  or  Philadelphia  leather  and 
warranted  such,  known  as    "  overweight,"  the  average  weight  of 


Fire  Department.  15 

which  is  not  less  than  twenty-two  pounds  to  the  side," and  none  to 
be  used  which  shall  weigh  less  than  twenty  pounds. 

Copper  rivets,  —  double  riveted,  twenty-two  rivets  to  the  run- 
ning foot,  of  size  known  as  No.  8  wire.  Splices  to  be  made  with 
thirteen  rivets,  of  size  known  as  No.  7  wire. 

Said  hose,  when  finished  with  three  loops  and  rings,  to  weigh 
not  less  than  sixty-four  pounds  to  each  fifty  feet  exclusive  of  the 
couplings,  and  warranted  to  stand  a  pressure  of  not  less  than 
(200)  two  hundred  pounds  to  the  square  inch. 

Couplings  to  be  of  the  same  thread  as  now  in  use  by  this  city ; 
the  tail-bands  and  tail-pieces  to  be  two  inches  in  width  aud 
length  respectively,  and  to  be  secured  by  thi-ee  rivets. 

In  this  connection  I  desire  to  return  my  sincere  thanks  to  Messrs. 
Boyd  &  Sons,  of  27  Merchants  Row,  to  Messrs.  Winship  &  Co., 
and  also  to  Messrs.  Cheever  &  Co.,.  and  the  Boston  Belting  Co., 
as  represented  by  Messrs.  Hunt  &  Twitchell,  also  to  Messrs. 
Clapp  &  Co.,  for  the  prompt  manner  in  which  they  answered  my 
request  in  the  repairing  of  hose,  working  night  and  day  without 
additional  charge  to  the  city. 

HORSES. 

There  had  been  much  sickness  among  the  horses  in  this  depart- 
ment during  the  year,  previous  to  the  appearance  of  the  epidemic 
so  generally  prevalent ;  yet  up  to  that  time  no  death  had  occurred 
among  them.  On  the  twenty-eighth  of  October,  the  disease  known 
as  the  epizootic,  or  influenza  catarrh,  attacked  them,  and  so  rapid 
was  its  spread,  that  on  the  fourth  of  November  the  entire  force  was 
prostrated.  The  services  of  Dr.  Very  were  secured,  the  horses 
placed  under  his  charge,  and  every  attention  given  that  would  tend 
to  effect  a  speedy  and  permanent  cure.  The  instructions  of  the 
doctor  were  strictly  complied  with  in  the  treatment  of  the  animals, 
by  their  several  drivers  who  had  them  in  charge.  The*  disease 
assumed  several  forms  ;  in  some,  the  typhoid  type,  in  some  pneu- 
monia, in  others  kidney  troubles  and  dropsy.  At  this  time  nearly 
all  the  horses  in  this  region  were  so  badly  affected  that  but  few 
were  to  be  seen  upon  our  streets.     Business  was  almost  suspended 


16  City  Document.  — No.  58. 

for  lack  of  transportation,  and  such  conveyance  as  necessity  abso- 
lutely demanded  had  to  be  done  by  men.  The  horses  in  this 
department  were  seriously  affected,  their  feet  and  legs  being  cold 
and  badly  swelled,  and  so  weak  that  it  was  with  difficult}'  they 
could  be  backed  out  of  their  stalls.  Upon  the  appearance  of  this 
sudden  and  sweeping  calamity,  the  Board  of  Engineers,  after  care- 
ful deliberation,  voted  that  the  force  of  the  department  be  doubled, 
and  that  steps  be  taken  immediately  to  supply  the  force,  so  that  no 
unreasonable  delay  should  occur  in  the  transportation  of  the 
apparatus  in  case  of  fire.  In  addition  to  the  doubling  of  the  force, 
it  was  voted,  should  the  exigency  arise,  to  levy  upon  and  press 
into  the  service  of  the  city,  in  their  several  fire-districts,  any  horses 
that  were  available.  This  vote  was  approved  by  the  Committee  on 
Fire  Department,  and  the  proceedings  were  published  in  the  daily 
papers.  As  many  letters  were  received  commending  such  action, 
and  no  objections  were  made,  we  have  good  reason  to  believe  that 
this  course  was  approved  bj'  our  citizens  generally.  The  course 
adopted  by  the  Board  of  Engineers  was  generally  followed  in  other 
cities,  not  only  throughout  New  England,  but  also  in  the  Middle 
and  Western  States.  The  direct  loss  to  this  department  by  death, 
on  account  of  the  epizootic,  was  four,  as  follows  :  Engine  No.  3 
one,  Engine  No.  4  one,  Engine  No.  17  one,  and  Hook  and  Ladder 
No.  3  one. 

Twelve  horses  are  still  suffering  from  the  effects  of  the  disease, 
and  will  have  to  be  exchanged  at  an  early  day. 

By  the  upsetting  of  Hose  Carriage  No.  5,  while  responding  to  an 
alarm  from  Box  82,  on  the  15th  of  August,  the  horse  was  thrown 
violently  against  the  edgestone,  breaking  a  leg,  which  necessitated 
his  being  killed  upon  the  spot.  This  was  a  noble  and  high-spirited 
animal,  the  pet  of  Mr.  Lovell,  his  driver,  and  a  great  favorite  with 
the  whole  company.  I  trust  the  Committee  on  Fire  Department  will 
take  early  measures  to  strengthen  this  force  by  an  early  exchange 
of  such  horses  as  are  unfitted  by  age  or  disability  for  such  as  are 
able  to  do  the  work  of  the  department.

ANNUAL     PARADE. 

The  two  hundred  and  forty-second  anniversary  of  the  settlement 
of  Boston  was  celebrated  by  the  annual  parade  and  inspection  of 
the  Fire  Department,  under  the  direction  of  the  'Joint  Standing 
Committee,  and  was  a  credit  to  the  department  and  satisfactory 
to  the  City  Government  and  to  our  citizens.  These  parades  are 
made  at  an  expense  of  about  $3,500  to  the  city,  and  are  looked 
forward  to  by  the  firemen  with  pride  and  satisfaction.  From  the 
nature  of  the  organization,  the  members  of  the  Fire  Department 
are  prevented  from  participating  in  the  enjoyments  of  our  legal 
holidays,  liable  to  -be  called  upon  as  they  are  at  any  moment. 
They  readily  comply  with  the  request  of  the  Chief  and  Committee 
to  remain  in  or  about  their  several  houses  upon  the  Fourth  of  July, 
and  other  public  holidays,  without  additional  compensation. 

While  our  City  Government  appropriates  from  $20,000  to 
$25, COO    annually  for  the  enjoyment  of  the  citizens   upon  these 


Fire  Department.  19 

holidays,  the  members  of  the  Fire  Department  are  thus  in  a  great 
measure  deprived  from  participating-  in  this  enjoyment. 

It  is  true,  and  cannot  be  denied,  that  a  large  portion  of  our  citi- 
zens derive  more  pleasure  from  witnessing  the  annual  parades  of 
the  Fire  Department,  than  from  any  other  display  provided  by  the 
city,  even  though  at  four  times  the  cost,  and  I  trust  the  City  Coun- 
cil will  see  the  wisdom  of  gratifying  so  large  and  useful  a  class  of 
our  fellow-citizens  as  compose  the  members  of  the  Boston  Fire 
Department,  by  continuing  and  encouraging  the  annual  parades. 

FIRES. 

The  past  year  has  indeed  been  an  eventful  one  in  the  history  of 
our  city,  having  exceeded  all  previous  years  in  number  as  well  as 
extent  of  conflagrations.  There  have  been  six  hundred  and  forty

the  total  loss  by  fires  the  past  year  (not  including  the  great  fire), 
$1,516,549,  as  will  be  seen  by  the  monthly  tabular  statement. 

THE    FIRE    OF    THE    9tH    OF    NOVEMBER. 

On  Saturday,  November  9th,  at  twenty-four  minutes  past  seven, 
an  alarm  of  fire  was  sounded  from  Box  52.  This  was  followed  in 
rapid  succession  by  four  additional  alarms,  calling  the  entire 
working  force  of  the  department  to  the  scene.  The  department 
rallied  with  a  promptuess  hardly  to  be  expected  under  the  circum- 
stances, the  horses  being  disabled  by  the  epidemic  which  prevailed 
so  extensively  at  that  time. 

The  precaution  which  had  been  taken  by  the  Board  of  Engineers 
aided  greatly  in  meeting  this  emergency,  and  proved  the  wisdom 
of  the  measures  that  had  been  adopted.  The  fire  broke  out  in  the 
basement  of  the  granite  building  cqrner  of  Summer  and  Kingston 
streets,  owned  by  S.  Klous,  and  occupied  by  Tebbetts,  Baldwin  & 
Davis  as  a  dry  goods  house,  and  A.  K.  Young,  hoop-skirt  manu- 
ufacturer.  The  dimensions  of  this  building  were  100  bj- 50  feet, 
six  stories  in  height,  and  mounted  by  a  heavy  Mansard  roof.  The 
fire,  originating  in  the  basement,  had  burned  through  the  elevator 
to  the  upper  story  and  through  the  roof.  The  illumination  was 
seen  by  the  police  in  the  city  of  Charlestown,  one  mile  distant, 
fourteen  minutes  before  the  first  alarm  was  sounded  in  our  city. 
To  this  unaccountable  delay  in  giving  the  alarm,  I  attribute,  in 
part,  this  most  fearful  fire,  both  in  extent  and  loss,  ever  expe- 
rienced in  the  annals  of  our  city.  In  this  section  of  the  city  was 
centred  the  business  wealth  of  Boston. 


Fire  Department.  21 

These  magnificent  stores  and  massive  warehouses  were  the  pride 
of  Boston  merchants  and  architects.  The  price  of  land  had  be- 
come so  high  that  every  available  foot  was  covered  with  buildings, 
carried  to  a  great  height.  Many  of  these  buildings,  so  massive  in 
appearance,,  were  of  the  most  combustible  character,  and  covered 
by  roofs  which  were  highly  inflammable. 

In  ten  minutes  from  the  time  the  alarm  was  sounded  I  arrived 
on  the  ground,  and  found  the  condition  of  the  fire  as  follows: 
The  building  in  which  the  fire  originated  was  literally  consumed. 
The  building  on  the  same  side,  below,  on  Kingston  street,  was  well 
on  fire  ;  the  adjoining  building  on  Summer  street  was  also  on  fire 
in  the  rear;  and  the  building  on  the  opposite  side  of  Summer 
street  was  on  fire  in  the  attic  stories. 

I  found  at  work  at  this  time  the  following  companies  :  Engine 
Company  No.  4,  stationed  at  the  corner  of  Summer  and  Kingston 
streets  ;  Engine  Company  No.  7  stationed  on  South  street,  and 
Hose  Company  No.  2,  stationed  on  the  corner  of  Bedford  and 
Kingston  streets.  These  companies  were  stationed  at  the  best 
possible  points  for  effective  work,  and  were  in  charge  of  officers 
whose  experience  and  judgment  are  held  in  high  esteem,  and  who 
have  served  in  this  department  with  signal  ability  for  the  past 
quarter  of  a  century.  I  refer  to  Captains  Green,  Jacobs  and 
Regan. 

The  efforts  they  had  made  and  were  at  the  time  making,  I  fully 
approved  of.  The  alarming  proportions  of  the  fire  on  my  arrival 
assured  me  at  once  that  the  force  at  my  command  was  entirely  in- 
adequate. I  immediately  sent  to  Charlestown  and  Cambridge  for 
aid. 

The  entire  supply  of  hose  in  the  department  was  gathered  from 
the  several  houses  and  brought  to  the  fire  ground.  The  Tug  Boat 
"  Louis  Osborn"  was  immediately  pressed  into  the  service  of  the 
city  and  took  her  position  at  the  B.  H.  &  E.  R.  R.  Wharf,  foot  of 
Summer  street.  Telegraphic  despatches  were  also  sent  to  the  dif- 
ferent cities  and  towns  for  assistance,  and  these  despatches  were 
responded  to  with  remarkable  promptness. 

The  wind  varied  from  N.  W.  to  N.  with  a  velocity  from  five  to 
nine  miles  to  the  hour.  On  the  windward  side  the  indraft  of  air 
through  the  burning  streets  assumed  the  character  of  a  brisk  wind 


22  City  Dcument. — No.  58. 

attberate  of  sixteen  or  eighteen  miles  per  hour,  while  the  heat  was 
so  intense  as  to  cause  smoke,  steam,  etc.,  to  be  carried  up  in  spirals 
to  a  great  elevation.  On  the  south  side  the  induced  currents  were 
very  strong,  ranging  from  thirty  to  thirty-five  miles  per  hour, 
carrying  the  fire  bodily  to  the  windward,  which  was  the  cause  of 
the  fire  burning  so  rapidly,  apparently,  against  the  wind.  These 
high  winds  permitted  the  indraft  to  rise  at  a  considerable  angle, 
leaving  a  large  space  of  highly  rarified  air,  inducing  stronger  cur- 
rent to  flow  in,  which,  meeting  the  indraft,  gave  it  a  whirlwind 
form.  By  this  action  the  heat  above  the  buildings  was  of  the  most 
intense  character. 

The  fire  raged  with  fearful  rapidity  against  the  wind,  as  above 
described.  This  and  the  location  of  the  hydrants  made  it  impos- 
sible to  mass  any  amount  of  force  in  one  place.  The  peculiarity 
of  the  streets,  which  can  be  readily  understood  by  a  glance  at  the 
map,  where  hundreds  of  buildings  were  approachable  only  on  one 
side,  presented  difficulties  in  themselves  almost  insurmountable  ; 
but  greatest  and  most  disheartening  of  all  was,  that  our  engines, 
as  powerful  as  any  in  the  country,  could  not  from  our  hydrants 
obtain  a  supply  of  water,  and  the  work  in  many  instances  was 
futile  on  this  account.  Had  the  Government  of  past  years  listened 
to  the  request  of  the  gentlemen  who  composed  the  Board  of  Engi- 
neers, and  acted  upon  their  suggestions,  there  would  have  been,  in 
this  section  of  our  city,  water-pipes  and  hydrants  of  a  size  com- 
mensurate with  the  wants  of  our  steam  department ;  and,  in  the 
opinion  of  the  Board  of  Engineers,  had  a  line  of  the  Lowry 
hydrants  been  placed  on  Summer  and  Franklin  streets,  upon 
water-pipes  of  sufficient  size  to  supply  them,  the  engineers  of  this 
department  would  have  massed  at  these  hydrants  four  steamers  at 
each,  with  short  lines  of  hose ;  and  the  effect  would  not  have  les- 
sened the  estimate  of  the  power  of  the  engines,  but  would  have 
been  a  saving  of  millions  of  dollars  to  the  city. 

In  addition  toour  own  department,  in  response  to  my  call  for  aid, 
the  following  cities  and  towns  responded,  and  the  following  table 
will  show  the  number  of  engines,  hose  and  hook  and  ladder  carri- 
aces,  the  number  of  men,  and  the  number  of  feet  of  hose  furnished 
by  each  city  and  town. 

On  their  arrival,  positions  were  assigned  as  fast  as  it  was  pos- 


Fire  Department.  23 

sible  so  to  do.  Much  difficulty  was  experienced  on  account  of  the 
different  sized  threads,  as  well  as  the  difference  in  the  size  of  the 
couplings,  and  the  inability  to  connect  thereby  to  our  hydrants  ; 
but  changes  were  made  with  the  least  possible  dela}7  by  sending 
our  own  apparatus  to  lrvdrants,  and  placing  these  companies  at 
our  reservoirs,  where  the}'  were  enabled  to  get  a  much  better  supply 
of  water  than  it  was  possible  for  our  own  department  to  obtain 
from  our  hydrants.

GUNPOWDER. 

The  use  of  gunpowder  as  an  auxiliary  in  the  extinguishment 
of  fires  has  been  a  question  of  great  interest.  Information  upon 
this  matter  has  been  sought  for  in  every  city  in  the  country 
where  it  has  been  used.  In  every  instance,  the  answer  to  our 
inquiry  has  been,  "  With  us,  it  proved  disastrous."  Why  it  thus 
proved  so  was  clearly  set  forth  in  the  several  letters  recr'ved. 
The  graphic  representations  given  by  the  press  of  the  exploits  of 
General  Sheridan,  in  saving  from  complete  destruction  the  city  of 
Chicago,  by  the  demolition  of  buildings  b}r  powder,  led  me  to  seek 
a  personal  interview  with  him,  in  order  to  obtain  all  information 
that  would  enable  me,  in  case  of  emergency,  to  act  with  positive 
knowledge,  gained  by  the  experience  of  its  use  in  Chicago. 

To  my  inquiries,  the  general  replied  that  he  was  sorry  the 
country  had  been  so  misinformed  ;  that  the  statements  published 
were  but  sensational  reports  without  foundation ;  that  he  was 
entirely  opposed  to  the  use  of  gunpowder  as  a  means  to  prevent 
the  spreading  of  fire,  and  that  this  opinion  was  confirmed  by  his 
observation  of  its  use  by  parties  in  Chicago  ;  that  he  was  satisfied 
that  one  steam  fire  engine  was  of  more  advantage  than  all  the  gun- 
powder there  used.  The  parties  who  did  use  it  in  Chicago,  claimed 
to  have  accomplished. a  great  work,  and  that  they  could  have  done 
a  great  deal  more,  had  the  privilege  been  given  by  the  proper 
authorities  in  the  earlier  stages  of  the  fire.  These  claims  failed  of 
endorsement  by  those  best  competent  to  judge.  The  only  monu- 
ment of  their  exploits  left  was  a  block  of  five  three-story  dwell- 
ings, which  had  been  blown  up  at  the  windward  of  the  fire,  and 
which,  from  absence  of  gas,  did  not  ignite  on  account  of  the 
explosion. 

With  these  facts  before  them,  the  Board  of  Engineers  carefully 
investigated  the  character  and  location  of  buildings  in  the  sections 
of  our  city  liable  to  a  serious  fire,  and  were  unanimous  in  the 
opinion  that  gunpowder  could  not  be  used  advantageously,  where 
our  streets  were  narrow,  and  lined  with  high  buildings  filled  with 
merchandise. 

In  order  to  accomplish  the  end  desired,  namely,  to  drop  the 
building  or  buildings,  there  must  be  a  cavity  to  drop  them  into  ; 
this  could  be  only  had   by  removing   the  goods  from  each  story 


Fire  Department.  27 

above  the  basement.     An  attempt  to  blow  up  a  building  without  first 
performing  this  work  would  simply  blow  the  front  and  rear  wall 
into  the  street,  and  drop  the  floors  upon  the  merchandise,  thereby 
preparing  it  for  a  ready  bonfire.     Again,  the  gas  should  be  shut  off 
from  that  section  of  the  city  where  it  was  deemed  desirable  to 
use  powder.      Failing   to   shut  off  the  gas,  the  gas-pipes  in  the 
several  stories  of  the  building  exploded  would  be  broken,  and  a 
full  flow  of  gas  from  the  street  mains  would  permeate  every  part  of 
the  debris,  so  that  the  least  spark  or  flicker   of  flame  from  the 
explosion,  or  from  falling  cinders,  would  ignite  the  entire  mass. 
An  explosion  sufficient  to  throw  the  wall  of  any  of  our  warehouses, 
would  break  eveiy  pane  of  glass  within  one  hundred  feet  of  the 
building  exploded,  and  make  an   open  conduit  for  this  increased 
body  of  flame  to  ignite,  and   set  on  fire  all  buildings  within  the 
distance  named.     In  addition  to  this,  the  streets  are  blocked  and 
made  impassable,  the  firemen,  for  the  time  being,  are  forced  back 
as  a  precautionary  measure,  and  the  time  consumed  in  the  prepa- 
ration, and  waiting  for  the  explosion,  is  of  too  much  value  to  be 
estimated.     Such,  gentlemen,  were  the  opinions  formed  and  enter- 
tained by  the  Board  of  Engineers,  as  to  the  use  of  gunpowder. 
While  entertaining  these  views,  I  realized  this  fact :  that  neither 
myself  nor  my  associates  had  had  any  personal  experience  ;  that 
our  opinions  were  formed  upon  the  experience  of  others,  and,  while 
commended  to  our  own  judgments,  yet,  in  this  matter,  exceptions 
were  taken  to  our  judgment  by  some   of  our  most  influential  and 
respectable  citizens  ;  and  I  determined  to  make  a  trial  of  gun- 
powder, to  arrest,  if  possible,  the  onward  march  of  the  flames. 
At  11  o'clock  I  gave  the  order  to  a  messenger,  to  notify  Captains 
Green    and   Smith   to   report   to   me    at   once.     In    as   short    a 
time  as  possible  for  them  to  comply,  these  gentlemen  reported. 
I   issued  the   necessary   orders  to   them,  in  reference  to   bring- 
ing a  supply  of  powder.     They  started  to  execute  my  order  at 
once,  and  in  due  time  reported  to  me,  with  the  powder.     Having 
no  authority  to  use  gunpowder,  in  any  emergency,  unless  by  the 
consent  of  two  of  my  associate  engineers,  I  summoned  them  to 
report  to  me   at  my  head-quarters  for  the  time  being,  on  Federal 
street.     I  stated,  upon  their   assembling,  that  the  demand  of  our 
citizens  was  that  we  should  use  gunpowder  as  an  auxiliary  aid  in 


28  City  Document.  —  No.  58. 

the  staying  of  this  fire.     They  deprecated  its  use,  but  felt  that  the 
demand   must  be  complied  with,  to  satisfy  the  citizens  of  Boston. 
I   stated  to  them  that  I  had  ordered  the   powder,  but  the  statutes 
and  ordinances  of  the  city  had  placed  the  authority  in  their  hands, 
whether  it  should  be  used  or   not ;   when,  on  motion  of  Captain 
Smith,  the  following  vote  was  passed  :  "  That  the  chief  be  author- 
ized to  use  gunpowder,  if,  in  his  judgment,  it  will  in  an}'  way  tend 
to  save  the  city  from  destruction."     His  Honor  the  Mayor  was 
present  at  this  time,  with  Alderman  Jenks,  and  Alderman  Woolle}^, 
Chairman  of  the   Committee   on  Fire  Department,  to  whom   the 
dangers,  liability,  and  responsibility  of  the' use  of  gunpowder  were 
fully  set  forth.  His  Honor  the  Mayor  was  then  asked,  whether, 
in  the   carrying  out  of  this  vote  to  use  powder,  the  government 
would  sustain  the  action  ;    he  replied  :  "  The  government  will  sus- 
tain you  in  all   reasonable  measures  for  the  suppression  of  this 
fire  ;    but  I  charge  you  in  its  use  to  exercise  due  care  for  the 
saving  of  life."    I  then  entered  upon  the  work,  and  called  Captains 
Green  and  Smith  to  aid  and  assist  in  selecting  and  mining  build- 
ings.     The  building   was    selected    and   mined.      This   building 
possessed  advantages  for  the  work,  from  the  fact  that  a  part  of  the 
upper  story  was  vacant.     A  battery  of  water  was  brought  up  and 
secured  ready  to  operate.     At  this  juncture  one  of  our  city  police 
notified  me  that  His  Honor  the  Mayor  desired  my  presence  at  the 
City  Hall.  It  was  with  extreme  reluctance  at  this  time  that  I  obeyed 
the  summons,  but  feeling  that  the  chief  executive  officer  of  our  city 
had  a  right  to  command  my  presence,  I  obeyed.     On  arriving  at 
the  City  Hall,  I  found  the  front  door  closed.     I  had   ordered  this 
door  open,  for  the  purpose  of  receiving  goods  of  a  valuable  char- 
acter, which  I  had  ordered  to  this  building.     I  insisted  upon  hav- 
ing the  door  opened,  and  then  reported   to  His  Honor  the  Mayor. 
Upon  presenting  myself  at  the  Mayor's  office,  I  asked  what  was 
wanted  ;  when  I  was  answered  by  Mr.  Burt,  who  said,  "We  want 
the  Common  opened,  and  we  wish  to  organize  men  for  the  purpose 
of  removing  goods  and  blowing  up  buildings."     I  answered  that  I 
was  ready  to  receive  any  assistance   in  the  direction  named  ;  that 
I  had   already  commenced  operations  ;   that  buildings  were  being 
blown   up,  that  powder  was   upon  the  ground,  and  more  was  in 
transit.     I  then  asked  who  were  the    men  that  wished  to  aid  and 


Fire  Department.  29 

assist  in  this  work  ;  and  several,  gentlemen  volunteered  their  ser- 
vices. It  ^as  suggested  that,  to  enable  them  to  pass  the  lines, 
and  to  accomplish  the  work,  they  should  have  a  written  passport 
and  authority,  which  I  granted  ;  that  being  clone,  I  retired  from 
the  hall,  to  resume  mjr  duties  upon  the  fire-ground. 

There  were  some  explosions  of  buildings  by  the  use  of  gunpow- 
der, but  they  were  far  less  in  number,  and  had  much  less  effect  in 
staying  the  spread  of  the  fire,  than  was  claimed  by  parties  who, 
by  virtue  of  sensational  reports,  similar  to  those  relating  to  Gen. 
Sheridan,  may,  by  some  persons,  be  supposed  to  have  assisted  in 
saving  the  city  from  destruction. 

The  use  of  gunpowder  in  this  district  was  contrary  to  my  judg- 
ment. The  experience  of  the  10th  of  November  fully  confirmed 
this  opinion.  If,  however,  in  the  opinion  of  the  City  Council,  gun- 
powder should  be  brought  into  requisition,  or  any  explosive  sub- 
stance, as  a  means  to  prevent  the  spreading  of  fire,  I  would  recom- 
mend to  your  honorable  body  that  the  law  be  so  changed  that  the 
authority  should  be  given  to  the  party  to  use  it  who  has  the 
responsibility  upon  him  for  its  use,  without  being  obliged  to  hold 
a  meeting  and  get  the  consent  to  its  use,  as  is  now  the  case.  I 
would  also  recommend  that  the  subject  be  submitted  to  a  commis- 
sion, who  shall  report  what,  in  their  opinion,  is  the  best  explosive 
under  the  circumstances,  that  could  be  used  for  the  demolition  of 
buildings,  and  that  certain  members  of  the  department  be  thor- 
oughly educated  in  the  use  as  well  as  the  strength  of  the  explo- 
sive recommended,  to  the  end  that  just  so  much  be  used  as  is 
requisite  to  drop  the  building  or  buildings,  as  the  exigency  should 
demand.  In  this  connection  I  would  also  recommend  that  an  alarm 
signal  be  adopted  by  the  City  Council,  which  should,  at  the  request 
of  the  Chief  Engineer,  or  Engineer  in  command,  or  His  Honor  the 
Mayor,  be  a  signal  call  for  the  several  companies  of  militia  to 
report  to  their  armories  and  to  await  further  orders.  This  request 
would  prove  to  be  invaluable  to  the  citizens  of  Boston  in  the  pro- 
tection of  goods,  and  preserving,  in  conjunction  with  our  police, 
order  and  quiet  in  such  cases  of  emergency. 

I  would  also  recommend,  if  it  is  deemed  desirable  by  your  hon- 
orable body  to  use  explosives,  that  a  magazine  be  built,  accessible 
within  five  minutes'  time,  said  magazine  to  be  of  sufficient  size  to 
contain  the  necessary  shores,  tools,  etc.,  for  immediate  use.

Fire    Department.  33

ACCIDENTS   TO    CITIZENS    CAUSED    BY    THE    FIRE    DEPARTMENT. 

Feb.  9th.  Hose  Carriage  No.  9,  in  going  to  the  fire  on  Border 
street,  East  Boston,  ran  over  a  man  on  the  corner  of  Border  and

ACCIDENTS    TO   CITIZENS. 

May  13th.  D.  W.  Appleton  who  was  locked  up  in  the  police 
station  on  Walnut  street,  Ward  16,  was  so  badly  burned  that  he 
died  from  the  effects. 

July  7th.  Mrs.  Benedicta  G-ueneo  was  fatally  burned  by  the 
explosion  of  a  kerosene  lamp  at  the  fire  No.  32  Ferry  street. 

Aug.  18th.  Mary  Ann  Fahy  was  badly  burned  by  the  explosion 
of  a  kerosene  lamp  at  the  fire  in  Centre  Place,  South  Boston. 

Nov.  8th.  Thomas  Corrigan  employed  by  the  Boston  Oakum 
Co.  on  Norfolk  avenue,  Highlands,  was  burned  to  death. 

Dec.  26th.  M.  F.  Murphy  (a  gas  fitter)  was  seriously  burned 
about  the  hands  and  face  while  attempting  to  fix  the  gas  pipe  at 
the  National  House. 

The  fate  of  our  associates  who  perished  during  the  efforts  made 
for  the  preservation  of  our  city  from  the  fire  of  Nov.  9th  and  10th, 
I  recall  with  sorrowful  emotions.  The  remembrance  inspires 
feelings  deeper  than  are  ordinarily  awakened  by  examples  of 
individual  sacrifice.  We  mourn  for  them  as  firemen,  as  fellow, 
citizens,  as  friends,  as  brothers.  We  grieve  for  their  stricken 
homes.  We  sympathize  with  those  who  loved  them.  In  their 
relation  to  the  public  as  firemen  they  displayed  a  loyalty  that  was 
ready  to  sacrifice  their  lives,  if  need  be,  in  the  faithful  performance 
of  their  duty.  Around  them  clustered  all  that  is  dear  to  the  heart 
of  man  :  the  fondest  love,  the  brightest  hopes,  the  solemn  trusts 
of  home.  But  other  homes  were  in  danger,  and  nobly  they  fought 
the  raging  elements,  proving  that  the  darkest  page  of  material 
misfortune  may  be  the  brightest  in  the  record  of  patriotic 
example. 

Calm  in  the  hour  of  peril,  firm  even  on  the  brink  of  death,  they 


34  Citt  Document.  —  No.  58. 

groped  their  way  amid  dense  smoke  and  scorching  heat,  making 
almost  superhuman  efforts  to  rescue  the  treasures  of  our  merchants' 
stores  and  -warehouses  from  destruction.  Such  self-sacrifice  and 
devotion  can  never  be  forgotten,  but  will  continue  to  live  in  the 
memories  of  a  grateful  people.  Peers  of  the  heroes  of  all  times, 
the  gratitude  that  cannot  reach  them  will  seek  in  the  desolated 
homes  those  who  have  suffered  the  greatest  bereavement.  Equally 
we  mourn  for  those  who,  hastening  from  abroad,  came  to  our  rescue, 
and  with  the  highest  magnaminity  went  side  by  side  with  us,  and 
fell  in  the  conflict.  Gratitude  for  their  heroic  devotion  presses  our 
hearts.  In  lite  they  belonged  to  other  communities,  but  the  death 
sacrifice  has  made  them  ours  forever. 

firemen's  fund. 

The  gratitude  and  generosity  of  Boston's  noble  men  is  manifest, 
overwhelmed  as  they  were  with  grief  at  the  terrible  calamity  that 
had  befallen  our  city.  Hardly  had  the  limits  of  this  terrible  fire 
been  established,  when  the  department  was  made  the  recipient 
of  checks  ranging  from  one  to  ten  thousand  dollars  each,  until  the 
magnificent  sum  of  one  hundred  thousand  dollars  and  upwards  has 
been  realized,  for  the  benefit  of  firemen  who  lost  their  lives  or  who 
were  injured  at  this  fire.  Of  this  amount  over  eighty  thousand 
dollars  has  been  placed  in  the  hands  of  a  Board  of  Trustees,  of 
which  the  Hon.  Martin  Brimmer  is  President.  The  action  taken 
by  this  board,  in  looking  after  and  caring  for  the  widows  and 
orphans,  meets  my  heartiest  approval.  There  was  also  sent  to 
the  Chief  Engineer  over  twenty  thousand  dollars,  five  thousand  of 
which  was  paid,  as  requested,  to  the  Charitable  Association  of  the 
Boston  Fire  Department,  the  balance  to  be  used  for  the  benefit  of 
the  firemen  who  were  injured,  and  the  families  of  those  who  were 
killed,  according  to  the  judgment  and  discretion  of  the  Chief. 

LIFE    INSURANCE. 

An  order  from  the  City  Council  was  received,  asking  the  Board 
of  Engineers  to  consider  and  report  what  steps  were  necessary  to 
be  taken  to  insure  the  lives  of  the  members  of  the  Boston  Fire 
Department.    After  careful  deliberation  on  the  part  of  the  board  it 


Fire  Department. 


35 


was  deemed  inexpedient  to  recommend  action  to  the  City  C>uncil. 
The  lowest  estimate  of  those  obtained  from  several  Life  Insurance 
Companies  would  cost  the  city  the  sum  of  $20,000  annually,  to 
insure  the  lives  of  the  members  of  the  department  in  the  sum  of 
$1,000  each.  It  was  recommended  by  the  Board  of  Engineers,  that 
the  department  mutually  insure  themselves.  This  recommend- 
ation was  adopted,  and  an  organization  was  accordingly  com- 
pleted on  the  3d  of  February,  1872.  The  plan  adopted  was  that 
each  member  be  insured  to  an  amount  equal  to  $2.00  from  each 
member  of  the  organization. 

The  following  deaths  have  occurred  during  the  year,  and  the 
amounts  set  against  the  names  paid  to  the  widow  or  next  legal 
heir.  Joseph  W.  Sweat,  $674.00  ;  Richard  W.  Kane,  $776.00  ; 
Thomas  Young,  $782,00  ;  William  Farry,  $780.00  ;  Daniel  Cochrane, 
$780.00. 

The  report  of  the  Treasurer  of  the  Charitable  Association  of  the 
Boston  Fire  Department  for  the  year  1872,  with  a  list  of  officers 
elected  for  the  year  1873,  is  here  appended.

HOUSES. 

The  houses  of  this  department  are  under  the  charge  of  the 
Superintendent  of  Public  Buildings,  and  are  in  excellent  condition, 
with  the  exceptions  of  those  occupied  by  Hose  Company  No.  5, 
and  Hook  and  Ladder  Company  No.  4.  During  the  past  year, 
Engine  Company  No.  4,  Extinguisher  Corps  No.  1,  and  tbeTnsur- 
ance  Brigade  have  been  located,  in  connection  with  the  National 
Lancers,  in  a  building  on  Bulfmch  street,  at  a  cost  of  $54,723.54, 
and  cost  of  land  of  $55,000.  Contracts  have  also  been  signed  for 
buildings  as  follows  :  — 

Hose  House  at  South  Boston  Point  for  Hose  Company  No.  12  ; 
an  Engine  House  on  Dudley  street,  Highlands,  for  Engine  Com- 
pany  No.  12,  and  an  Engine  House  on  the  corner  of  Warren  and 
Quincy  streets,  Highlands,  for  Engine  Company  No.  22. 

PEACE    JUBILEE. 

During  the  time  of  the  concerts  at  the  Coliseum,  there  were  sta- 
tioned in  a  building  built  expressly  for  the  purpose  and  adjoining 
that  of  the  main  building,  two  of  our  steam  fire-engines,  viz. : 
Nos.  12  and  21,  which  were  kept  in  constant  readiness  night  and 
clay  for  immediate  use.  The  hose  was  coupled  to  the  engines,  and 
run  over  the  building  at  different  points  ;  steam  was  also  constantly 
kept  up  by  means  of  circulating  water-heaters.  In  the  daytime, 
during  the  concerts,  members  of  the  department  were  stationed 
upon  the  roof  with  the  lines  of  hose  from  the  engines.  There 
were  detailed  from  this  department,  daily,  nineteen  men,  who  did 
patrol  duty  in  and  about  the  building,  watching  for  fire  day  and 
night,  and  who  took  charge  of  the  sick  and  fainting  ;  the  latter 
duty  was  performed  at  the  "  Head-quarters  of  the  Fire  Department," 
which  was  generally  pretty  full  of  sick  and  fainting  ladies.  The 
Anvil  Chorus,  one  of  the  features  of  the  concerts,  was  performed 
by  one  hundred  members  of  the  department,  under  the  leadership 
of  Mr.  H.  W.  Longley,  Secretary  of  the  Board  of  Engineers. 
After  the  concerts  were  ended,  there  were  stationed  one  steam 
fire  engine,  and  five  members  of  the  department,  who  remained 
there  until  the  building  was  removed,  per  vote  of  the  City  Council, 
at  an  expense,  to  this  department,  of  $15.00  per  day,  making 
a  total  expense  to  this  department  of  $2,551.30. 


Fire  Department.  41 

CONCLUSION. 

To  the  officers  and  members  of  this  department  I  desire  to  re- 
turn my  heartfelt  gratitude  for  the  faithful  and  efficient  manner  in 
which  they  have  discharged  every  duty  assigned  them  the  past 
year ;  and  especially  do  I  thank  them  for  the  able  and  efficient 
manner  in  which  they  discharged  their  duties  on  the  ninth  and 
tenth  of  November,  and  the  subsequent  week,  working  bravely, 
skilfully,  and  heroicalty,  for  victory,  toiling  night  and  day,  permut- 
ing neither  danger  nor  exhaustion  to  shake  their  determination 
to  conquer  in  the  terrible  battle  they  were  waging,  reflect- 
ing honor  and  credit  upon  our  organization,  commanding  the  re- 
spect of  their  officers  as  well  as  our  fellow-citizens.  To  them  and 
their  noble  brothers,  who  came  to  our  aid,  is  due  the  salvation  of 
our  city,  which  entitles  all  to  the  warmest  gratitude.  Their  efforts 
stand  out  strangely  in  contrast  to  that  class  in  our  community 
whose  occupation  consists  in  grumbling,  and  whose  engineering 
capacity  is  so  largely  developed  that  these  years  of  experience  and 
faithful  service  to  the  city  is  of  no  moment  compared  with  their 
engineering  qualities  of  mushroom  growth  since  the  fire. 

I  desire  to  return  my  sincere  thanks  to  His  Honor  the  Mayor, 
and  the  members  of  the  City  Council,  for  the  aid  and  assistance 
rendered  me  in  those  trying  days,  of  the  November  fire. 

To  the  members  of  the  Police  Force,  I  desire  to  return  my  heart- 
felt acknowledgments, 

To  the  Joint  Standing  Committee  on  Fire  Department,  for  the 
careful  attention  given  to  the  requirements  of  the  department,  for 
their  cordial  support  and  endorsement ;  and  also  for  the  able, 
prompt,  and  cheerful  manner  in  which  they  have  given  me  their 
co-operation  during  the  year,  I  return  my  sincere  and  heartfelt 
thanks. 

Respectfully  submitted, 

JOHN  S.  DAMRELL, 

Chief  Engineer.

RULES  FOR  THE  DISTRIBUTION 

OF 

THE  FIRE  APPARATUS. 


Engineer's  Office,  Fire  Department, 
Boston,  January  1,  1873. 

To  the  Officers  and  Members  of  the  Fire  Department :  — 

Gentlemen,  —  The  new  method  of  striking  the  Fire  Alarm 
renders  it  necessary  that  the  rules  for  the  distribution  of  the 
apparatus  should  be  explained,  that  it  may  be  distinctly  under- 
stood. 

The  accompanying  document  is  furnished,  definitely  stating  the 
numbers  of  each  box,  and  their  location,  and  with  explanations 
for  your  guidance  and  instruction. 

JOHN  S.  DAMRELL, 
Chief  Engineer  Boston  Fire  Department. 


92  City  Document. — No.  58. 


CITY  OF  BOSTON. 


FIRE-ALARM  TELEGRAPH. 

Alarms  are  sounded  by  striking  the  number  of  the  box  upon  the 
Alarm  Bells,  and  upon  the  Gongs,  in  the  Engine  Houses. 

Examples  :  To  announce  the  existence  of  a  fire  near  Box  No. 
41  (Old  South  Church),  the  bells  will  strike  four,  make  a  pause  of 
a  few  seconds,  then  strike  one,  thus  :  4 —  1.  This  will  be  repeated 
at  intervals  of  about  one  minute. 

For  a  fire  near  Box  No.  145  (South Boston  Point),  the  bells  will 
strike  one,  make  a  pause,  then  strike  four,  another  pause,  then 
strike  Jive,  thus  :  1  —  4  —  5. 

Second  Alarms  are  sounded  by  striking  ten  blows.  Third 
Alarms  are  sounded  by  striking  twelve  blows  twice,  thus  :  12  — 
12. 

In  cases  where  the  entire  department  are  required,  alarms  are 
sounded  by  striking  twelve  blows  three  times,  thus  :  12  — 12  — 
12. 

In  cases  where  Hook  and  Ladder  Companies  only  are  wanted, 
signal  to  be  given  by  striking  ten  blows  once,  with  the  number  of 
the  Company  struck  twice,  thus  :  Hook  and  Ladder  No.  one,  10  — 
1  —  1.  Hook  and  Ladder  No.  four,  10  —  4  —  4.  Hook  and 
Ladder  No.  seven,  10  —  7  —  7. 

If  more  than  one  Hook  and  Ladder  Company  is  wanted,  the 
signal  will  be  given  thus :  Hook  and  Ladder  one  and  three,  10  — 
1  —  1—3—3.  Hook  and  Ladder  two  and  four,  10—  2—2—4 
—  4.     Hook  and  Ladder  five  and  seven,  10 —  5  —  5  —  7 —  7. 

No  person  will  give  alarms  for  the  same  fire  (after  the  first 
alarm  has  been  given),  without  an  order  from  an  Engineer,  and 
the  person  so  ordered  will  be  sure  to  go  to  the  same  box  from  which 
the  first  alarm  was  given,  and  report  the  same  to  the  Chief  Engi- 
neer.

the  slide  all  the  way  down  once,  and  let  go.  If  possible,  wait  at 
the  Box,  so  as  to  direct  the  Firemen  to  the  fire.  If  you  hear  no 
reply  on  the  Bells,  pull  again.  If  no  reply  after  the  third  trial, 
go  to  the  nearest  Box.  The  Police,  upon  hearing  the  Bells,  will 
spring  their  rattles,  and  call  the  number  of  the  Box.
