Title

Description

English:

A spectacular fire broke out at Seattle's Grand Trunk Pacific Dock on July 30, 1914. It was a true test of the city's fireboats. The "Duwamish" fought the fire from the south, trying to keep the fire from jumping to nearby Colman Dock. The "Snoqualmie" pumped water on the fire from the north end of the dock.
