Blyth works foreman Merv
Ritchie was presented recently
with the mystery of running water.
Noticing water bubbling up at the
side of Mill St. he thought it was a
broken valve on a water main and
started digging to repair the
problem. The mystery unfolded
when he came across a small pipe
with water spouting out of it. The
area was served from a private
community well before municipal
waterwasputinthe 1950’s and
councillors speculated that it may
be a pipe from that well.
Though the well was capped and
the water shouldn’t be coming
from that, speculation was that
perhaps the town water might have
been tapped into the old piping
system ana that it might actually be
water from a watermain that is
coming out of the pipe. The
mystery continues until town
crews can investigate further.
