At least one N.C.O. per room is required to be in his quarters, from last post, each evening, and it will be one of his most important duties to see that this is enforced. Steps are being taken to provide iron plates ... outside each stove, but meanwhile the greatest care must be taken.{{quote-right}} <ref name="lowther135">{{lowther|recno=135}}</ref>
