There being a partition on the South side of the middle chamber which reached up to the floor of the garret, and 1supported it, that part of the garret which was beyond that partition South-ward, fell not: so as all the people thereon were safe. Only they had no way to get out. For, there was but one entrance into the garret, which was at the North-West corner. Hereupon some through amazement ⟨p. 397⟩would have leaped out of a window, almost forty foot from the ground. But the people without told them of the danger if they leapt down, and so kept them from that desperate attempt. At length by breaking the wall on the West side, they discerned chambers adjoining thereto: and through the hole which they made, they crept into those chambers, and were saved.

All that stood on the stair-head at the door leading into the garret, were also saved. For, the stairs were without the room, and nothing fell but the floors: nor walls, nor roof.
