  My father told me the opposite story of a fire in Limerick. A store at the William Street end of Henry Street went on fire and a passing British officer used his swagger stick to break the glass in the windows. A small fire turned into a clonflagration as he supplied a strong flow of oxygen to light it up. Apparently he had to run for cover when the Fire Brigade arrived as they wanted to douse him;-0

  Swordscookie That's terrible! But funny too! :D

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  [http://www.flickr.com/photos/66105333@N06] Very welcome info too, thanks! Never knew that the Granville was owned by Hearnes. And £42,000 was a humongous sum back then! P.S. That photo of the tailors was taken on Thursday, 25 July 1907.

  José Miguel LLop Sanchez Thank you!

• Mike said:

  Hope they were using race-horses!?

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  Mike Think they were going for strength over speed by the look of these horses...

  It is "Shand, Mason & Co., London". Samuel Phillips was making fire engines by 1760; in 1797 the firm became Phillips & Hopwood; in 1811 it was James Hopwood; by 1818 it was Hopwood & Tilley; by 1825 Tilley & Co; and around 1853 Shand, Mason & Co. Merryweather & Sons Ltd acquired them in 1928.

A fire in the night makes a street urchin’s delight...

  I'll get my guess in early and then see if I can actually find it. Stephen's Green (South).

  When and how? The butler did it with a candlestick, at two in the morning.

• Foxglove said:

  I am working on the words in the broken window, also are some of the holes in the wall and defined holes in window from bullets ? yes, there may not be a dog (yet) but there are bare foot children

• derangedlemur said:

  Well, that was a miss, anyway.

• derangedlemur said:

  Foxglove It does look a bit shooty, alright.
