Info from another site....QUOTE.. Ed Carroll of E48 was preceded in death by his father, John Carroll, a member of L48, who died in the line of duty in 1935 from a fire on Charlotte St. Almost 21 years to the day....can't begin to imagine how his mother must have felt when the Chaplin and BC showed up at her door a second time..UNQUOTE.
