Fire alarm saves Gloucester town from major blaze
In Gloucester on Tuesday May 20 1928 Mrs Watson of the Royal Hotel raised the alarm as a fire broke out in the old Nakehotsu building near Park Street adjacent to several wooden shops. Sergeant Bolton and helpers contained the fire, with later notes on a district school report, a May Time ball planned by the Church of England Women's Guild, and a May 1928 football gathering at the Majestic Theatre. Union Sale reports show market prices for fruit and poultry, while Senate pre selection lists reveal Labour candidates and a rabbit market update.
