Carroll, C. F. (Miss) - 1889

A Slight Blaze

On Wednesday night, about 10 o’clock a large brass lamp was left burning in the millinery store of Carroll and Wood, on Magee avenue.  Miss Carroll, hearing something fall, went up-stairs and found the room almost full of flames.  Seizing a rug, she succeed in subduing the fire on the floor and assistance arriving by this time the fire was soon extinguished. The show case was broken and a few millinery goods destroyed was about all the damage that was done.
