Hydro Problems
From Insulator In
Main Street Area
Lucknow Hydro System expel--
ienced some problems over the
week end which had crews out.
Saturday through the night , Sun-
day and Monday making repairs.
The first problem was exper7
ienced in the early hours of Sun-
day morning when the Wingham
Public Utilities crew , ,who norm.-
ally handle prbblems of this type
for the village , were called over
to investigate and repair a hydro
interruption problem.
Two' fuses on Ross street , in
the area around the, home 'of Clar- ,
ence Greer , had blown. The re-
pair crew checked the village in
an attempt to find any cause for
the fuses' to have blown. 'They
looked 'for any trees or limbs
dawn or any pole damage., • Un-
able. to find the cause, they in-
serted new' fuses and all.appeared
to be well again. Checking the .

Dear Folks ,
My husband and I are passing
through' "Lucknow" and felt we
should drop you a line. We 'have
;pent 3 months travelling by
public transport through Europe
and Asia since leaving Ripley in
July of last iummer. I am the
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Earl
Elliott , 10th concession, Purple'
Grove. My husband. Paul is the
son of James Greenwood of Hanov-
er.
We find Lucknow India a much
larger plar:e than our Lticknow I -
has a population• of over a million
according to' persons we've talked
to here. The streets are crowded
with people , stray sacred cows
and numerous 3 wheeled bicycle -
rickshaws, their main form of
Reeve ,,George Joynt , in com-
menting on The Sentinel editorial
in last week's paper concerning'
sidewalk conStraction in the•vil-
lage , said that he agreed with the
thoughts in the paper that side-
walks on Bob and Willoughby
Streets were necessary.
Mr. Joynt explained that be-
taxi service. Yesterday we visit-
ed the Taj,Mahal in Agra, a huge
monument of impressive white
marble inlaid with semi precious
gems.
This Lucknow , the capital of/
Uttar Prodish, appears to be a
more properous place than others
we have visited. There are not
SQ many beggars seen here in corm
parison.
This morning as we strolled,
past the Government Houses with
their green, floral gardens, we
watched school children in their
blue and white uniforms being
delivered by bicycle rickshaw to
school.
From Lucknow , we intend to
visit Benares and Calcutta in
India. .From there we travel to
Bangkok,' Kuola Lampur and
Singapore, catching a boat to
Australia. Our final destination
is New Zealand in 1974.
. Yours sincerely,
Nancy and Paul Greenwood ,
