In 1836 the patent office occupied, with the General Post Office, a building on the present site of the Post Office. This building on the | 15th of December, 1836, was entirely destroyed by fire, and while many of the archives of the Post Office Department were saved the ralua- ble collections and papers belonging to the patent office were entirely lost, only one book trom the library, and this of little value, being saved from the wreck. This fire started some building contained and the lack of appliances for its control the flames rapidly spread over the entire structure, which was totally de- stroyed. AS this time there were many rumors afloat of the occasion within, while the cordon of smoking, throbbing engines, the armed guards, driven the flames around the west hall and in one moment the fire seemed to spring through the root from 8th to 9th streets, a whole block in length. The opposite buildings were in grest | O} danger and police were busy wetting the roofs of the buildings on @ and 9th strectsand in tearing down awnings and inflammable mate- rial. fhe flames curled far over the {houses on G street and the heat and violence and the noise created something cf a panic in the crowd. ‘The breeze, however, soon moderated, the flam- ing roof fell in and danger to the opposite \ouses Was averted. flames were being slowly but surely subdued and that the eastern end of the north hall would be the main sufferer.
