Probabl the first person to discover the troubie was Frederick I". Whits- head, who was walking down to the beach about 11:20. having lust come tip from New York. A: Mr. White- head reached the drawbridge, he saw what appeared tonim to be a small tree aflrc. As he approached, how ever. he discovered that he was in er- ror in his original supposition and that instead, the rear end of the Jor- dan cottage was in flames. With this discovery. Mr. Whitehead lost no time in hustling for the cottage. lie pound- ed on the door and amused the family. who escaped with only their night clothes. Went Back After Jewels. It was just shortly following this that Mrs. Jordan's thrilling escape oc~ curred. The fire gained headway very rapidly, but Mrs. Jordan believed she would be able to rescue her Jewelry in the house and she ran in to act it. The continuation advanced faster than she had anticipated and out off her escape. Mr. Whitehead procured the ladder which proved her salvation. Mrs Jordan climbing to safety oilt of a window. The Flames Iridqe Gap. There was only about twenty feet between this cottage and another. own~ ed by Charles H. Flirty. of New in naan. and in which a family of New York people were mounting, and it was not long before this building. too, took fire. The man and wife and their children fared no better than the Jor- dana. They barely got out in their night robes. and the woman lost a con- slderable quantity of jewelry, includ- ing a diamond ring. necklace and other articles of value and of a similar na- ture. ‘ City Firemen Cummoned. The Harbor View Beech property is Just outside of the city limits. but the department responded. The first alarm to the firemen came in the shape of a telephone message to Chief Har- old F. Clark, at his residence in High street. The chief 'phoned into the do parlment from his home. directing the Putnam hose wagon an the Old Well truck to respond. The team chemi- cal wagon was ordered to remain to answer possible trouble in the city. The chief went details his own can rlagc. fly that time the fire had gain- ed great headway, having W to such a degree that as tho depart- ment went through Woodw \rd avenue. the men could see the cottages falling. At this time. also. a maular alarm came in from liox ill. in Lowndes sve- uue. which brought out the Putnam chemical truck. . 3, . Chemieai's quid . Vito. it proved that the most effective service was done by the chemical truck. There is only one hydrant at the beach. and this was so far from the scene of trouble that it was in- effective. The chemical. on the other hand. was used on the nearby cottage of Dr. Francis MclAren. which took fire time and again. The roof of this cottage. was partially burned and one side of the house pakb ly scorched. The cottage of J.‘ .l 11 effof New ork. nearby. also took tire but was not seriously damaged. A Valiant Voiuntsdr lrigade. No'small amount of work was done by the volunteer brigade. which was formed as soon as the fire was dis- covered. and which was,hesded by John W. Smith. The whole colony turned to in the savingworlt. Garden hose and the bucket brigade played an important part and the tires in the grass from dropping sparks were stamped out by the volunteers. After the arrival of the chemical truck of Putnam Hose Company. the Old Wcll truck was sent back into the city by Chief Clerk. Were Completely Destroyed. The Jordan and Fairty cottages were licked up completely by the names. Hardly an article in them was saved and this morning all that re mained of the dwellings were some smoking embers. The occupants were furnished with clothing by other cot- tagers and at an early hour this morn- lag. the Jordana, wrapped in blankets, went to their residence in Stamford in an automobile. The Fairty cottage was estimated this morning to have been worth about 81.400. Insurance on thie building and on the Jordan Japanese house was carried with the J. B. Lawrence agency. Wind saved Worse Fire. In the opinion of ‘Chief Harold 1". Clark, of the South Norwaik depart- ment the veering around of the wind assisted materially in- checking the progress of the tire, and perhaps saved the whole settlement. several of the beach people expressed their disappro- VII of the lack of hydrants, which would have been of great assistance, last night.
