Towards midday, a girl heard a muffled cry coming from behind one of the walls.
təˈwɔːdz ˈmɪddeɪ, ə gɜːl hɜːd ə ˈmʌfld kraɪ ˈkʌmɪŋ frɒm bɪˈhaɪnd wʌn ɒv ðə wɔːlz.
As the cry was repeated several times, she ran to tell the manager who promptly rang up the fire brigade.
æz ðə kraɪ wɒz rɪˈpiːtɪd ˈsɛvrəl taɪmz, ʃiː ræn tuː tɛl ðə ˈmænɪʤə huː ˈprɒmptli ræŋ ʌp ðə ˈfaɪə brɪˌgeɪd.
The cry had certainly come from one of the chimneys, but as there were so many of them, the fire fighters could not be certain which one it was.
ðə kraɪ hæd ˈsɜːtnli kʌm frɒm wʌn ɒv ðə ˈʧɪmniz, bʌt æz ðeə wɜː səʊ ˈmɛni ɒv ðɛm, ðə ˈfaɪəmən kʊd nɒt biː ˈsɜːtn wɪʧ wʌn ɪt wɒz.
They located the right chimney by tapping at the walls and listening for the man's cries.
ðeɪ ləʊˈkeɪtɪd ðə raɪt ˈʧɪmni baɪ ˈtæpɪŋ æt ðə wɔːlz ænd ˈlɪsnɪŋ fɔː ðə mænz kraɪz.
After chipping through a wall which was eighteen inches thick, they found that a man had been trapped in the chimney.
ˈɑːftə ˈʧɪpɪŋ θruː ə wɔːl wɪʧ wɒz ˌeɪˈtiːn ˈɪnʧɪz θɪk, ðeɪ faʊnd ðæt ə mæn hæd biːn træpt ɪn ðə ˈʧɪmni.
As it was extremely narrow, the man was unable to move, but the fire fighters were eventually able to free him by cutting a huge hole in the wall.
æz ɪt wɒz ɪksˈtriːmli ˈnærəʊ, ðə mæn wɒz ʌnˈeɪbl tuː muːv, bʌt ðə ˈfaɪəmən wɜːr ɪˈvɛnʧəli ˈeɪbl tuː friː hɪm baɪ ˈkʌtɪŋ ə hjuːʤ həʊl ɪn ðə wɔːl.
The sorry-looking, blackened figure that emerged, admitted at once that he had tried to break into the shop during the night but had got stuck in the chimney.
ðə ˈsɒri-ˈlʊkɪŋ, ˈblækənd ˈfɪgə ðæt ɪˈmɜːʤd, æt wʌns ədˈmɪtɪd ðæt hiː hæd traɪd tuː breɪk ˈɪntuː ðə ʃɒp ˈdjʊərɪŋ ðə naɪt bʌt hæd gɒt stʌk ɪn ðə ˈʧɪmni.
He had been there for nearly ten hours. Justice had been done even before the man was handed over to the police. '
hiː hæd biːn ðeə fɔː ˈnɪəli tɛn ˈaʊəz. ˈʤʌstɪs hæd biːn dʌn ˈiːvən bɪˈfɔː ðə mæn wɒz ˈhændɪd ˈəʊvə tuː ðə pəˈliːs. '
