Read the passage and answer the following question:
A local man, staying on the top floor of an old wooden house, was awakened at midnight by a fire. Losing his way in a smoke-filled passage, he missed the stairway and went into another room. He picked up a bundle to protect his face from the fire and immediately fell through the floor below where he managed to escape through a clear doorway. The ‘‘bundle’’ proved to be the baby of the Mayor’s wife. The ‘‘hero’’ was congratulated by all.
