The remarkable rapidity with which horses were hitched to engines
now-a-days astonishes the multitude, and especially foreign visitors who
are familiar with the workings of the Fire Departments in European cities.
Quick time is made by the New York Fire Department of 1886, but does it
make better time than that made by Protection Engine Company 5.
The Firemen's Journal of February 10, 1855, says:
"At half past one o'clock on Monday morning a fire broke out in
the third story of building No. 140 Fulton Street. The alarm was quickly
given, and in five minutes from the discovery of the fire engine Company
No. 5, supplied with water by Hose Company No. 20, who was first on the
ground, had a stream on the fire."
This was rather quick work, considering the Honey Bees and the Humane
boys did not have the aid of electricity and horses, but they got to the
fire quickly all the same.
