FIREMEN CALLED FROM WARM BEDS.
ALARM IS FALSE, BUT JUSTIFIED. It is not often that a false alarm of fire is justified. There were good grounds for a call given at 3.20 this morning from the box at the corner of High and Cashel Streets. Someone had left a fire burning in a grate in the Returned Soldiers’ Depot rooms on the top floor of Inglis Buildings, and the reflection on the window of the room evidently gave the impression that the building was on fire. That was the cause of the firemen being called from their warm beds in the early hours of a frosty morning.
