The fire had gained considerable headway when Roundsman MONAHAN of the Delancey Street Station heard of the aged woman’s deadly peril, and without a moment’s delay ran through the burning hallway and found Mrs. TORP unconscious in her room. MONAHAN carried her to the top floor where he escaped with his burden through the scuttle to the roof and thence to safety. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NY-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
