Frank Leavy - Firehouse No. 107 - Chicago, IL

According to legend, in 1924 Fireman Frank Leavy had a premonition of his death as he rested with his palm against a windowpane. Sure enough, that very day a wall collapsed during a call, and killed him. His palm print remained on the glass, and no cleanser or glass expert could remove it. It served as a memorial to Frank until exactly 20 years later, when the pane was shattered by a careless paperboy. There are differing reports as to whether the firehouse still stands: Some say it was torn down in 1971, and others say it still stands at 13th and Oakley Streets.
