Fire has broken out and a fireman can be seen with a person draped over his shoulder. they are about to descend from the third storey via a series of ladders. Firemen can be seen on the roof of the premises. The building appears to be a tobacconist shop and Alfred Augustus Stump's photographic studio. A large crowd has gathered to watch the drama unfold. The fire broke out in December 1900 and gutted the studio.
