amma TESST I a TT EES LRT THE HAILEYBURIAN _ THURSDAY, APRIL 30th, 1931 Page 5 Fire Last Week Badly Damaged Marshall Home Flames Spread Quickly Through House And Loss is a Heavy One . When the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Marshall, Browning Street, caught fire on Thursday forenoom last, both the building and contents_were badly damaged before the flames were subdued by the firemen, which were hast- ily summoned by neighbors. The fire apparently started from the kitchen stove or pipes, while Mrs. Marshall, who was alone in the house at the time, was in the basement. Her first intimation that anything was amiss was when she heard the fire alarm and came up to see where the fire was, only to find that it was her own home that was burning. The firemen had a stiff fight to over come the flames, which had gained considerable headway and had spread to almost every room in the house. Neighbors state that when the front door was op- ened by Mrs. Marshall a sheet of flame burst forth and for a time it appeared as though the build- ing was doomed. Good work on the part of the brigade, however, saved the house from total des- truction and, although the house- hold goods were badly damaged, some of them can be repaired. Mr. Marshall, who came up from Ottawa following news of the fire, said that the damage to the building would be at least $1.000 and that there had also been damage of several hundred dollars to the contents. Both were covered by insurance. Mr. Marshall also told. The Haileyburian that he and Mrs. Marshall deeply appreciated the many offers of help received from sympathetic neighbors and friends, in extending a welcome to their homes until such time as they could make other arrange- ments. It was possible for the family to stay in the damaged house, but they received plenty of invitations from friends and there were a great many offers of help extended to them, for all of which they feel deeply grate- ful. MISSIONARY SOCIETY >. OF DISTRICT TO MEET HERE THURSDAY NEXT The Women's Missionary Soc- iety of Temiskaming Presbyter- ial of the United Church will hold its annual meeting in Haileybury on Thursday next, May 7th. Rep- resentatives will be present from all points in the district and both afternoon and evening sessions will be held. The election of of- ficers for the coming year, receiv- ing of the reports for the past year and other business will come before the meeting. , At the evening session the special speaker will be Miss Clark, a missionary from Africa. Added interest will be taken in her address, as she is quite well acquainted with Miss Annie Bradley, a well known Hailey- bury girl who has for some years past been doing missionary work in Africa. Miss Bradley and Miss Clark met while engaged in the work in that part of the world. An organ solo by Mr. R. H.-Unwin will be a feature of the evening meting. The Society will convene at 2 p.m. for the af- ternoon session and the evening meeting will open at 7.30.
