We remember Charles W. Barrett, Badge #5, who on this day in 1908 died in the line of duty. Firefighter Barrett joined the department as a Callman in 1901 and became a permanent member in June 1908.

Assigned to Engine 1, Firefighter Barrett died as a result of a high voltage electrical shock at a still alarm at the Congress Square Hotel. He was 41 years old.

For his supreme sacrifice he is remembered, and in the dedication and courage of all our active members, and all firefighters past and present, his spirit lives on.
