The works superintendent added.

London Middlesex MP Terry Clifford pre- sented the village of Lucan with an Irish book collection on behalf of the Republic of Ireland. The collec- tion was promised by the former Ambassador of Ireland. Dr. E4ward Brennan during a 1991 visit Lu - Can. The collection includes books which deal with Irish life and cul- ture. This gift from the people of Ire- land to the people of Lucan is in- dicative of the very real bond that exists", said Clifford. "Being of Irish ancestry myself, it is very gratifying to see that future genera- tions will have a real understanding of the heritage of Lucan." Lucan reeve Tom McLaughlin re- plied. " On behalf of the village , I would like to thank Terry Clifford for making this happen. There is a huge Irish population in this area and the books will be utilized by many residents." Claire Anderson, vice -chair of the Middlesex Library Board add- ed, " It's a thrill to have this kind of contact across the ocean and 1 hope that everyone makes use of, this very generous gift." "These books are a real asset to the library because of the interest in iigib culture," said Luean Library supervisor Donna Atkinson. Biddulp townhsip reeve Bart French said the great collection of books will be kept in the Lucan li- brary but will be used as reference - for W residents of Middlesex 1pttrtty. we were able to locate. Very few properties are not contributing with surface water." Johnston was instructed to con- tinue with the camera work in as many parts of the village as the budget of 52,000 will allow. The work completed in the Wilberforce subdivision and on Langford Drive is estimated to cost $900. Reeve Tom McLaughlin said. "i.et's have a look at the films Doug has now and do as much additional work as is financially possible. The real solution will be the installation of sump pumps." Johnston agreed saying, " All will likely have to install sump pumps and try and get the water into the stone sewers." Councillor Bryan Smith reported that a new supply of composters had arrived and will be available at the village -office for any residents wishing to purchase same at $16 each. Clerk Ron Reymer told council- lors that debenturing of the sewer system costs would be completed in the very near future. Although, Ontario Municipal Board approval had been received for debenturing of $1,670,000 for the combined water and sewer ex- tension prbgrams, only $484,000 will be required for the sewers and the water debenture completed ear- lier in the year was in the range of $100,000. The lower debenture figures are due to the fact more property own- ers than expected paid their water and sewer levies in advance. A grant of $18,700 has been re- ceived from Jobs Ontario to assist in the cost of renovations to the swim pool change house and new fencing around the tennis courts. The contract for the pool change house work was awarded to RMR Cgnstruction of Lucan for $46,035.68, including G.S.T. This was the lowest of three tenders re- ceived. Car written off in Stephen EXETER - Saturday a car driven by Lisa Morlock of RR2 Crediton went out of control on Stephen Township Concession 8-9. Police say the cause was a cat crossing the road. The car left the roadway and struck a tree. Both driver and pas- senger, Heather Davies of Huron Park, received minor injuries in the accident. The car was considered a write-off, report police. Last Tuesday a pickup truck driv- en by Marc Fowles of London went out of control on loose gravel on the south boundary road of Us - borne Township. The truck slid off the road and struck a utility pole. No injuries were reported, but the truck was severely damaged. Last Monday, October 25, a car driven by Carol Anne Scheel of Kincardine collided with a Terraga- tor driven by Melvin Rachar of Tillsonburg. The accident occurred on Highway 4 in Usbomc Town- ship. Scheel received minor inju- ries in the accident and her car was demolished. Over the past week, OPP officers "have responded to six car/deer acci- dents on local roads.
