VOLUNTEER
FIREMEN A bronze figure of a fireman carries a frightened child in his left arm and a lantern in his right. On the granite base are inscribed names of those Texan volunteers who have lost their lives fighting fires. This monument is a Capitol Historical Artifact. The decision has been made by the State Preservation Board with advice from Texas museum and history professionals to leave the monument as it is -- a product of the 1890s with its historical omissions and errors. A complete and accurate listing of those Texan volunteers who have lost their lives fighting fires can be found here. |
