NEW EN’GLAND ASSOCIATION OF FIRE CHIEFS just walked right into the open door of the ambulance and were whisked away to the hospital. Leaving that point--which I consider a critical one--I knew that the apparatus was coming up, and much of it would land, out there where I had started my multiple alarm. I watched the fire growing at the time and saw that the injured people were getting a lot of help; a lot of people were coming in, and the ambulances, were showing up at a pretty good rate, so, that first aid seemed to be one thing that would be well taken care of. I then had to stop unnecessary fire companies from coming down there. I had already detailed some to do the work as best they could;, but my most imperative thought at that moment was with ways to get the fire under control. My deputy chief up there in the plateau area was calling for more help, and with that thought I raced back a mile and a half to where I knew would be a main junction. If responding com, panies were to take the road on the right they would all come out to the housing project. The project was .composed ’0f buildings of the best masonry construction. I had ascertainedl that there was no fire. The road to the left of the "Y" was the one which ted to the. fire area. I reached that junction, in time to divert five companies to the left. My deputy chief told me it was wonderful to be able to call for help and get it so readily. A company would show up tugging a line of hose by hand, and he was pleased in telling me how well it worked out that way. An hour later the factory which had had the roof blown .off reported that there was a tire a half a mile away from where I was (now supervising the large fire area just described). The fire alarm advised me a factory wa’s now on fire, and I said I would’ get over there. I could see so,me smoke, and getting down there found a three-story wooden factory in which later reports showed could not have ;been more conducive to a quick,starting, fire. It was an industrial plant with a supply of paints, oils and thinners, and a targe quantity of oily and paint-soiled canvas stored in the .first story, The fire built up quickly, and I--being the one in that.position and with the radio-called for the box alarm about which I told you. I also received a call that there was a fire in the Assumption College, which was terribly wrecked. I worked my way out there, but I didn’t see any fire. I saw apitiful condition of mutilated human beings. The first thing I saw was a broad platform truck on which bodies, covered with dirt and blood, were piled like cord wood. I think their first purpose was to get the people to the hospital, but as they piled them up it became a platform from which the ambulances worked. Ci’here were ambulances which took away probably ten or fifteen bodies off that truck. I was. concerned with the repo,rted fire but couldn’t see any tire at that building. It is a five-story building, all brick, about two hundred feet tong and one hundred~ feet wide. The ,fire alarm had told me that there was a fire in the boiler room. I drove around to the rear corner, and I .could see a fire truck at the .other end of the building. There was a lot of rubble and an imp’c.ssible driveway surface between us. I was able to use my radio right from that point. = I asked, if the truck at the other end of the college had a radio. They answered back that they were a company from five or six miles away in the south end of our city--Engine .Co. No. 5. I asked if there was a fire. They said there was one in the boiler room but it was all under =control. "Can you take control of it? .... Yes." That is the way the thing went. At one time I had a pumper set in at the swimming pool of the College with an assured water supply. Then there was another serious in-between period--standing alert and guarding. When we had finished our real urgent control of the situation night was beginning:
