Wilmington Marks Twenty Years Of Paid Fire Department
Yesterday Wilmington celebrated the twenty year anniversary of its paid fire department. Under Mayor Silas T. Wright the new system replaced the old volunteer force which included the Atlantic Adrian and Cape Fear companies and a colored hose and engine unit. Chief Charles Schnibben has led the department since its start, while public memory recalls the era of fire horses and gong calls as modern auto trucks now respond with speed. Fire losses averaged about 60 000 annually, with a low of 16 000 and a high of 180 000 after Seaboard Warehouse fires.
