OLD Ross Bor's BRAVERY . - During the re- cent fire which occurred in the bunker of the steamer " Polamhall , " in the Port Pirie Harbour , a Ross boy named Davis , whose parents reside in New - street , together with his fellow foreman named Kellett , had a very narrow escape from losing his life . The following is taken from an Adelaide paper : -During their 18 - hours ' shift the men dis- played great courage . Foremen Kellett and Davis both had narrow escapés from losing their lives by suffocation . Together with another fireman they entered the affected area . They had to work in great heat , and the smoke and gases from the smouldering coal made breathing very difficult . Foreman Kellett ,, who had made several previous trips into the burning bunker ,. felt himself being overcome by the fumes , and commenc- ed to crawl out , when he heard one of the firemen say , " Davis is done , sir . " The next moment Foreman Davis collapsed . Bravely risking his own life , Foreman Kellett secured . a rope which he attached around Davis ' CHESTER RACES . - An excursion will run to waist , and assisted to drag him on deck , Chester and Liverpool on Wednesday .
