SUMMER
HOME
IS
DESTROYED
Cottage
of
Mr.
and
Mrs.
Harry
Bond
Across
Harbor
Burned
Yesterday
Flames
seen
rising
high
above
the
trees
yesterday
morning
around
10
o'clock
at
Douglas
Point,
Just
across
the
harbor
and
f
orming
the
eastern
sWe
ofMcNicholl
Creek
estuary,
caused
some
apprehension
for
the
well
being
of
the
summer
campers
who
were
finishing
the
holidays.
There
are
nine
summer
cottages
in
three
groups,
each
.having
Its
own
beach,
and
some
of
them
only
occupied
intermittently
during
the
season.
Mr.
have
been
residing
there
continuously
for
several
months
and
all
their
personal
belongings
have
been
destroyed.
Of
actually
unknown
origin,
but
probably
from
a
spark
from
the
stove
alighting
on
the
kindling
box,
It
was
a
matter
of
seconds
until
the
cottage
was
blazing
furiously.
Mrs.
Bond
and
her
two
children
had
to
run
and
Mr.
Bond
was
unable
to
get
very
much
put
of
the
house
before
he
was
driven
out,
too,
by
the
great
beat.
All
the
men
folks
from
the
other
camps
came
with
buckets
and
were
able
to
confine
the
blaze
to
the
one
cottage.
Jack
Bond's
cottage
was
only
20
feet
away,
but,
by
copious
wettings,
suffered
no
damage.
Fortunately,
the
morning

did
not
spring

otherwise,
