Storm Damage
Not Extensive
Though Lucan was close
the three tornadoes which recent
ly hit Ontario, yet it escaped
damage. However, the elements
decided if tornadoes couldn’t get
us, lightning could. In Tuesday’s
electrical storm, not only was
the motor of the Cold Storage
Plant burned out but Mr. H. B.
Langford’s house was hit. At
the latter place the lightning ran
along the clothes-line, bored a
hole through the brick wall,
entered the kitchen cupboard,
breaking dishes, followed the
molding on the sink to the water
taps and went down the pipes.
Mrs. Langford fortunately was in
the front part of the house and
so escaped injury. The telephone
was* also -put out of business.
Across the street, Mrs. Harold
Hodgins was in her kitchen when
She saw sparks flying from her
electric stove. During the tor
rential deluge many cellars
flooded. However, there
no fires and no one was
for which Lucanites are
thankful.
