The people of tlic village are deterred from examining the ruins in search of bodies of the victiins on account of the dangerous condition of the walls of the burned buildings, which threaten to top- ple over at any moment. ' Further particulars of the ilrc say that nil the pupils and the nun who perished, sicptin the upper story of the building. One of thc first to reach the convent after the fire was discovered was Alphonse Garand, who lives immediately opposite. He had two daughters residing in the ins_ titution,and lils first thoughtwas natural- ly for their safety. Luckily a. ladder lic had b'ee'r'i using a few days previously lay in the front of his house, and procuring it he raised it qulclely--_at--one end of the building, at one of the windows of the dormitory lin which he knew one of his clilidrcn slept. When lic sniashed the window a great volume of smoke poured ont. Garand_mounted the ladder lust in, time to receive one girl, while a' nionieut later a second girl jumped from theadjoin ing window. He called, but received no rc- sponse. Another moxuent the smoke had becomefiamea and hewasoompelled to re- treat. From `Gai‘aiid's story it is evident ,that with the exception of these two girls who escaped, as described, all_t.he inmates of this floor,and including Sister Marie Adjutor, _must have been asphy`x- lated while they lay asleep, or else over- come before they could reach the windows. Wiieii the fire broke out shortly before THROW MEDICINES TO THE DOGS! k At best they are unplesant,oftcn useless. You have 5ome disease of the nose, thro_o.t or lungs. actors would call it bronciiitis, asthma or cntarrh. The common root of these diseases is germ or mlcroblc irritation. - Uatarrliozone not onl_y destroys disiase germs, it does more; it ic_als dis- eased and inflamed tissue. l`he disease is midnight, all thc liiiiiiitcs in thc school were asleep, and in the efforts to escape from thc burning building thc children became panic stricken and were unable to iind their way out of thc siiioke-filled cor- riders. Sister Rageterua, music instructor, made heroic efforts to inarsliai the child- ren and get thcin out, but her work wits only partially siicdcssful and the poor lady herself becaiiic a vlctini to the flames. When the villagers were aroused they formed a bucket brigade, but could do little to stop tiio fire. An eil'ort was niadc to get tclcplionic connections with Montreal to ask for as- sistance, but for some reason connection with Point Clair could not be had, and nothing could be done in that way. It is possible, however, that 'assistance from this city would have been too into to have been of much use. St. Genevieve is situated about 20 miles north-west of the city on the upper end of the island of Montreal, and is an agricul- tural villafrc without iirenpplianccsof any importance. / _ The building was ii gray stoncstructurc. handsome iii iippenraiicc, iiiassive in char- acter and with the church it formed a cciitral feature of the pretty little village. The origin of the tire, which brought such desolation and sorrow is unknown and probably could only he told by -lips now sealed in death. Sister Mary Adri- ennc, Superior of the ill-fated convent, confessedlher utter ignorance of the cause of the dreadful fire, nor ooulduny of other Sisters wiio had been rescued from the burning building know of anything that would throw light on the mystery. One of the inmates, Mrs. Mcrnier, let full some remarks, which niight show the tire originated, but this old woman was in such a state of excitement that nothing coherent could be obtained. However, the general explanation given is that one of the old charity boarders alone during the night let a nii1tc_li fiill, hencc the ‘ Revealed Nothing- London to Halifax via that port. the darkness.
