a tap for filling buckets, and 2 

 smaller sized cocks ; and 7 small 

 Engines are distributed throughout 

 these parts of the building, the whole

 7 small engines in the building, 

 there are in the engine-house 3 

 large engines, one hose reel, and a 

 ladder-carriage, numbered from 124 to 

 128, both inclusive. 228 fire buckets 

 are distributed throughout the build- 

 ing, six being hung near each of the 

 15 large fire cocks, and the remainder 

 in other prominent places; and close 

 by every fire cock or engine there is 

 a sufficient supply of hose and other 

 necessary apparatus. The whole of the 

 connecting screws are of a uniform size 

 and pattern, the same as those used 

 by the Metropolitan Fire Biigade, so 

 that every length of hose may be 

 used indiscriminately for any engine 

 or fire cock inside or outside. 



There are also 24 hand-pumps in 

 buckets, with hose and nozzles screwed 

 on, and ready for immediate work. 

 One of these will always be found in 

 each of the following places, viz. : —
