Harrowing Night in Raging Blizzard Four Lucan girls and a Thorndale youth were returned in safety to their homes Wednesday, January 25, after a harrowing night in the raging blizzard which swept across the country. Stranded by the side of the road for hours, they had nearly per­ ished with cold before they found refuge in a district farm home. And during the night, while the storm was at its height, Richard England, Lucan laborer and father of three of the girls', struggled for hours searching for his daughters who failed to return from an evening of skating at Granton. The girls are Beatrice England, 16; Dorothy England, 14; Catherine England, 12; Ora Smith, 17, and the youth is Fred Trudgeon, 19, of R.-R. No, 1, Thorndale. The party had gone to Granton to skate and returning home, a. mile out of Granton. Trudgeon’s car stall­ ed and skidded into a ditch in the blinding snow. While the girls sat and shivered in the ditched car, the youth walked back to Granton to get help, and then went with William LambOttrn to get a horse and buggy to take the girls to the home of George Lam- bourn, one tnile south of Granton, •where they remained for the night. Trudgeon had the side of his face and on6 ear frozen ‘vV'hile he walked for help arid the girls were perishod with bold before they reached the farm home of George Lambourn.
