Diana Harris and Bill Mantel won $250,000 in the Oct. 20 Lotto 6/49 draw when their Encore num- bers turned up. Mr. Mantel said he was pretty sure he'd at least won a free ticket, but was flabbergasted when he discovered the windfall. "I knew | had at least one number on Encore, so llassumed | had a free tick- et," he said. "I went into the store... to get what | thought was my free ticket, I handed it to the person working, and she was speechless. She handed me the stub without saying a word. "When | saw $250,000, | almost fainted," said a happy Mr. Mantel. Ms Harris, 54, is a teacher with the Toronto District School Board. Mr. Mantel, 60, is retired. Between them they have four adult children, and three grandchildren. With their prize money they intend to pay some bills, buy a new computer, invest, and travel. The winning ticket was purchased at Shoppers Drug Mart in Port Perry.
