Rudan photo. Story on house needs clarification Last week's issue of The Huron Expositor contained a story and some photographs about the former Carnochan homed. Unfor- tunately some of the facts surrounding the history of the house were not entirely ac- curate, and we at The Expositor would like to clarify them. While repeating the succession of owner- ship of the home, The Expositor reprinted some information on the proposed demoli- tion of the home in 1983, by then owner Leo Medd. The way that paragraph was worded may have been unfair to the Medd family. To clarify: Neighbors of the Carnochan home objected in 193, not to the demolition of the old home. but rather to the minor variances applied for the new house. An Ontario Municipal Board hearing determined that oh'ections to the proposed home were unwar•ra ted, and Mr. Medd was given permissio- to continue construction of the new home, with the permit he'd already paid for. In the meantime however, he had decided to build his new home where it would be more readily accepted. Also, in the same story, we referred to one owner of the Carnochan home as Bob, rather than John Carnochan. Our apologies for any embarrassment or inconvenience these errors might have caused.
