Total loss was set at nearly $100,000 and Mr. Roberts was only partially insured. (photo by Milvena Erickson) Maitland and the 16th newt by Milena Lobb Things just can't run smoothly in this corner of Goderich Township it seems. Someone is being hospitalized or a "bug" is putting a lot of people in bed. It is one thing after another and now we have a fire to add to the list of troubles. Things can look bad but usually it could be worse. Such was the case Thursday night when the Jones' home was on fire. The neighbours who tried to help felt rather helpless when the smoke drove them out and there was nothing they could do but wait for the Clinton fire truck to come. It was a short wait. The best help one could ask for was those brave firemen who acted beyond the call of duty and somehow managed to get the flames under control and get the fire out. Minutes ` counted and it was a matter of minutes that made the difference. A wise investment was made when the townships purchased the tanker truck and it is very reassuring to know Goderich tanker truck can assist when needed. We were all holding our breath..as the wild roaring wind was blowing in the wrong direction if the fire didn't get put out. The a last thing we needed was two homes burning. By the time the paper is out Alvin and Linda should be settled into their temporary home, a house trailer, and can make the big decision on what to do. They have lost a lot of things but at least they are safe and they can save a lot of their things.
