Valentine Day, Feb. 14/63, will never be forgotten by Mr. and Mrs. Les Woodward and family, The day began as usual but shortly after 12:30 pm Mr. and Mrs. Woodward went over to a neighbor's for a few minu- tes. On returning, they found their house in flames and their four-year-old Labrador re- triever whining inside. Mr. Woodward had to be held back from attempting to go to the dog's rescue. A pet cat also lost its life in the fire. The dog had crawled under the son, Ron's bed and the cat had sought safety behind the chesterfield. Both animals were great pets of the family. Mrs. Woodward called the fire department from Mr. Wm. Hodgins' home, but the fire was beyond control when the fire- men arrived but they were able to save Mrs. Frank Booth's house next door, as well as Mr. Woodward's large workshop at the rear. After Mr. Woodward pur- chased the house from Mr. Er- nest Alpine he made extensive alterations and renovations so his loss may run as high as $15,000. The fire had gained such headway when discovered that nothing could be saved. The loss is partially covered by in- surance. Mrs. Woodward and 20 year old. Ron both Work in London but Mrs. Woodward was having a few day's vacation. Mr. Wood- ward is one of Lucan's builders and carpenters. The family is staying with Mrs. Woodwa.rd's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Irving Gibson for the present but have as yet made no plans for the future.
