1893: FIRE AT TRENTON'S UNION STREET SCHOOL

At some point, I hope to retrieve the news account of the fire at Trenton's old Union Street School back in 1893. Apparently, the Principal and the teacher led the students out of the building in a very orderly way, and the certificate above recognizes their heroic efforts. For those who are not familiar with Union Street, it, along with Cooper Street ran off of Market Street between Lamberton and South Broad Streets in South Trenton.
