Sanitarium Fire Devastates New England Hospital Block
The New England Sanitarium building at the site of the old Hotel Longwood burned severely, with $35,000 in losses split between building and contents. Over 50 patient rooms, staff of 60 with 30 nurses, and several cottages were affected as firefighters from Stoneham and Melrose arrived late due to uphill runs and weak water pressure. Patients were evacuated safely under nurse and doctor supervision, while crowds aided in salvaging furniture and officials kept theft at bay.
