On the load with Mr. Sigs-

Two more fires,
both mysteries
About 1 a.m. last Wednesday
morning, Lueanites were
awakened from their first sleep
by the fire siren. Many hastily
dressed and rushed to the
scene of the second fire in
three days. This time it was a
chicken house at Mr. Murray
Hodgins'.
A passing motorist gave the
alarm 'and firemen were able
to confine the fire to the
chicken house. Many feel there
'Must be a "fire bug" in the
locality as there was nothing
in the building to start a fire.
Early Sunday morning, July
16, the fire siren went again.
This time the fire was not in
Lucan but at the back kitchen
of Mr. Thomas Morkin who
lives near the Catholic church.
-The family was awakened at
5 a.m. by the baby crying. On
smelling smoke they investi-
gated and found a large box
used for waste paper kept in
the back roam almost com-
pletely burned.
.Fortunately, a large brick
partition separated this room
'train the main part of the
house. However, the deep freeze
was kept in this back room,
so they called Lucan for help,
but with the aid of a garden
hose they had the fire under
control before the fire engine
arrived. As to the cause of the
fixe, it is another mystery.
Hail storm
hits district
Lucan seemed to get the
brunt of last Sunday's storm.
A very heavy down -pour, with
strong winds and hail, flooded
gardens, flattened grain, up-
rootid corn and potatoes, blew
down trees and broke off
branches.
Hydro was off for over an
hour and lightning and thunder
were loud and close. A large
limb from Mr. Cecil Robb's
tree landed on the roof of Mr.
Jack Lankin's house, Several
large branches from Mr. Jack 1
Mtirdy's tree gave his visitors
a thrill. One broke off the
electric meter.
Both large garage doors of
Mr. Clarence Haskett were
blown off, one landing on the
roof. One tree in his back yard
was blown down. and several
had branches blown off. A.
number of large branches on
Market St. were also blown
