From the February 15, 1902 Brooklyn Daily Eagle:

“Chicago–Firemen who groped their way through the fire and smoke and dragged six bodies into the street from Bennett Hospital, at Ada and Fulton Streets, late last night, carried on their heroic labor in the belief that they were rescuing persons who had been asphyxiated, and not until the flames had been subdued did they learn that they had been in the dissection room of Bennett Medical College and that the bodies were from the dissecting table of the school. Several of the cadavers were clothed, having been brought into the school in that condition.”
