Coroner's Inquest
Suggest Review
A review of area fire depart-
ments and their responsibilities
was recommended Monday night
by a jury inquiring into the
March 1 death of Mrs. Dennis
Carey of Huron Park.
The inquest jury found Mrs.
Carey "died of carbon dioxide
poisoning as a result of fire of
undetermined cause." Her two
children, Dwayne, four, and
Denise, five months, also per-
ished.
Mr. Carey, a corporal with
the Royal Canadian Regiment,
was working at Wolseley Bar-
racks, London, at the time of
the fire.
The jury urged that "the Ont-
ario Development Corporation
review with area fire depart-
ments the area responsibilities
to ensure that each area is
adequately covered and that
residents be informed of the
responsible fire department."
Dr. R.W. Flowers, Huron
County coroner, said the jury's
recommendation apparently
was based on the fact the Huron
Park fire department is techn-
ically only responsible for the
industrial complex within the
former armed forces base, which
is now a provincially -operated
industrial park.
The Huron Park firefighters,
he said, have taken on, on
their own accord, responsibility
for residential fire protection
also. The jury, said Dr. Flowers
meant no criticism of the depart-
ment's efforts, but felt the area
responsibilities should be clearly
defined.
"In fact, " he said, "they
(the Huron Park department)
did a good job."
Evidence indicated that the
fire started in an area near the
front window of the house, where
a television set was located.
It possibly started in the telev-
ision set or from a cigarette
which had been laid on the tel-
evision set and fell off, igniting
a rug.
young people took part in the
service.
A wig demonstration was held
in the Township Hall last Wed-
nesday evening, under the spon-
sorship of the U , C , W ., which
attracted a large number of
ladies.
