With no fire engine to aid in fire fighting, the residents removed their belongings to a safe place as they feared that the whole hamlet might be destroyed. Mr. Reddom's wife, the former Flossie McComb, died 10 years ago. She had lived across the road so did not have far to move into her home when they were married. Mr. Reddom has one grandson and four grandchildren. He enjoys guite good health. Congratulations, Mr. Reddom, on your 90th birthday."
