Horns were blowing—one knew im- mediately that it wasn't' Gabriel Wowing his horn but one wond- ered if it might be a heralding of the minenium. The passing din did not get us out of bed—we merely Cov- ered om head with the bedclothes —but those op Main Street were treated to a much longer spasm when a bonfire was lighted op- posite Corrie'a market and the revellers danced around it. In days gone by summer visit- ors have had such processions but at a decent hour when the vil- lagers. could enjoy the fun, too. There were so many complaints that Constables J. H. Parker and George Little investigated. No charge was laid but the 'leaders were warned not to disturb the peace of the mid -night hours again. ta1.4111110.1.6101.1•1411..010.51111101 This could be YOU Drivers! Parents! Citizens!
