News 12 at 6 o'clock / Friday, June 12, 2015. EVANS, Ga. (WRDW) -- A day after we discover minutes from a resident meeting at Marshall Square telling people to stay in their apartments, a new letter sent to people living there just days ago tries... The letter also says there was no "shelter in place directive to the staff of Marshall Square. After minutes from a resident meeting showed instructions to stay in place in the case of a fire alarm, a concerned son alerted the Fire Marshal's office. Emails from January show the message was passed along after Deputy Fire Marshal Jerry Baldwin writes he "personally spoke with the management team at Marshall Square" and was told it will be "discontinued a. s. a. p. ". "If you have things in... An e-mail from March 12th reveals there was a meeting about the emergency procedures on February 25th, but more than two weeks later, the Fire Marshal's office "had not seen any updated information regarding what we discussed. According to people living in Marshall Square, they didn't get the updated information either. An email from the family member of a tenant says while they "stopped printing these "shelter in place" instructions in the newsletter," even after being instructed by the Fire Marshal, managers "continued to verbally recommend residents remain in...
Hundreds of American towns, streets and parks are named after the Marquis de Lafayette — the French general who came in 1780 to help George Washington in the struggle for independence. Now, an exact replica of the general's ship is sailing across the Atlantic Ocean, retracing Lafayette's voyage. The magnificent "tall ship" is anchored in the waters off the coast of Fouras in western France. Its towering masts and 18th century rigging set it apart from any other boat out here. I climb a dangling rope ladder to board the ship and end up on a wooden deck that's just been swabbed. There are cannons, and the sails are so massive there are hundreds of ropes. It took 17 years to raise 26 million euros ($29 million) to build the Hermione. Hundreds of ropes made of hemp and waterproofed with tar lead up to the ship's three masts, which stand 141 feet tall — or nearly half a football field. "Standing aboard one of these ships is almost like standing inside of a very intricate clock," he says. Raising and lowering the 2,200 square yards of linen sails takes 50 people and two hours. The Hermione was the fastest ship of its day. Jensen says its replica was built almost exactly to original plans.
