STANDS BY BODY OF DAUTER IN ROARING FLAMES John Friederich Refuses to Try} to Save Himself and Is Severely Burned. ‘The body of Miss Marto i'riederich lay to-@ay in an improvised mortuary in home of friends at No. 661 Central ave- ue, Brooklyn. In a darkened bedroom wpetaire her father, John Friederich, a well-to-do wholesale butcher, raved in @elirtum. Physicians said he would be able to attend the funeral of his daughter to-morrow. Mies Friederich, fifteen yeare old and the pet of her father, died yesterday at her home, No. 126 Green avenue, Brook- lym, after @ short illness, The heart- broken father and mother, alone in their grief, sat at the aide of the child's body in thelr parior last night, prepared for an all-night vigil. They would permit no one else to remain with them, “It will be our last night all together,” sobbed Friederich. At 11.20 Jaet night fire started in one of the upper rooms of the Friederich home, Father and mother rushed to hn atrect, and Friederich turned in @ fire alarm. Then he ran hack inte the parlor to bring out the body of his daughter. By the time he re-entered the house, the wooden structure was in flames. TRIES TO BEAT OUT FLAMES WITH BARE HANDS. Inetend of trying to aave himself, he stood in the room, covering the body with rugs and hangings, to keep away the flames, and beating out with his bare hands the emberr that fell upon |= the body. When the firemen reached the house it was doomed. Through the glaring flames they could seo the distracted fathor fighting to save the body of hin Ohiid. Stream after stream of water | was turned onto that corner of the par- lor, the firemen making mo effort to gave the trutlding. In halt hour the flames were out—the building destroyed. Only one corner of the parlor remained—the corner where Friederich had stood with his child. Despite hie own burns, the father ten- Gerly lifted the body in his arms and staggered through the charred ruins of his home to the street. There, just as the firemen reached him to relieve him of his burder, he staggered and fell unconscious. The wn cnsctous father and dead daughter were carried to the home of neighbors, where Friederich’s burns were treated by surgeons from the Bushwick Hospital.
