Directions to Key-Holders.
Upon positive information of a fire near your signal box, unlock the door, and turn the crank slowly and steadily about twenty-five times; then wait a few moments, and if you hear no ticking in the box, or alarm on the bells, turn again as before. Cease turn- ing as soon as the bells strike ; aud in no case com- mence to turn while a ticking is heard in the box.
Never open the box or touch the crank except in case of fire.
Never give an alarm except from the box nearest the fire.
Be sure the box is locked before leaving it.
Never let the key go out of your possession, unless to some responsible person for the purpose of giving an alarm, or when called for by the Superintendent.
The number of the box signaling the fire will be struck upon the bells of all the Engine Houses, to- gether with that upon the Mechanics' Institute.
