Is attached, and drawn over the house by the former, and so on, until a chain ladder or escape is eventually elevated. To act upon this plan, however, with any good chance of success, requires the men to be regularly trained for the purpose, as they are in Edinburgh, where they are exceedingly skilful in the management of all their fire machinery. Mr. Buston introduced a fire escape, consisting of a large strong canvass sheet, with loops all round to hold on by ; this being held under the windo...w at which any person is situated, by eight or ten persons, the party above leaps out of the window into the middle of the sheet, which catches him uninjured. Although this is by no means the most pleasant mode of escape, nevertheless numberless experiments have proved it to be a safe and effectual one. As this escape takes up but little room, and is ready for use in a few seconds, it is well adapted to be carried by the fire engines, and most of those in London are now provided with one of this kind.
