The principal is Miss 8. Maxwell. The disaster is perhaps 'the most terrible in the history of Montreal. The little victims were caught in the fated place without a chance to éscape, hemmed in by fire, suffocated by smoke, driven back from the windows and possible rendercd on the altar. The fire was first scen by one of the scholars, little William Gilbert, who had leit the class-room to fetch in a from the cellar and at once ran back to notify Miss Maxwell.
