MONSOU, Fred Butcher - 29 July 1914
* database has this name, but read story ..
Mataura Ensign, 30 July 1914 THE BLUFF FIRE One of the biggest fires that has ever occurred at Bluff for over a decade commenced in the Club Hotel Building at midnight on Tuesday. By the fire at Bluff in the Club Hotel buildings in the early hours of Wednesday (29th) morning three lives were lost namely Peter MONSON (55), Fred BUTCHER (66) and John Thomas BROOK (22)
Brook, a Private in the Bluff territorials, was a fireman and lodged at the hotel. He was due at his work in the railway shed at six o'clock and as he did not turn up inquiries were made. Brook had only arrived from Lumsden the previous week to take up his duties at the Bluff. He was a single man, 22 years of age. On the night preceding the fire he arrived at the hotel from a hard day's work and his remark to one of the hotel staff was, "I am dead tired and I am going to have a good sleep." He went straight to his room and from that minute nothing was seen of him again. A careful search of the place failed to reveal any human remains under the bedroom he occupied (room 6) but it is possible that the unfortunate man had groped his way out into the corridor and had been overcome by the heavy smoke.
Monson was an American Swede and had been employed on the barque Irene as ship's carpenter. His charred body was found in a bent-up tangled wreckage of the bedstead (room 15), where he was evidently suffocated in his sleep. Butcher, the third victim, commonly known as "Blucher", was a well-known identity, an old character of both Invercargill and Bluff, being an ex man-o'-warsman. There were many heroic actions during the progress of the fire. Two of he maidservants were rescued in the nick of time, one being unconscious with her night clothes on fire. Another became stupefied and was unable to move when a man caught hold of her and carried her down the fire escape. The fire brigade rendered excellent service under trying circumstances
