This act, however. proved to be the best thing at the right time. as the fire was thus. checked in spreading till the hose could be got out The fact of the room being lined with sheet iron inside also prevented the flames breaking out It was fortunate that though the wind was very strong. it Was in the right direcrion to prevent a serious spread.
