    Residence:
    Dad and Mother were living with Gord and had bought a new stove in January 1926. "The stove was new but the chimney was old and in bad shape. Mother was home alone when a fire started in the chimney and Mother couldn't get it out. The neighbours came, but having had little experience with fires and remembering that a dresser was full of bullets brought back from France as souvenirs. In fact I think the bullets had started to go off. So only a few pieces of furniture was carried out and it was badly water soaked and harmed by sitting out in the snow. But they rented the farm just south of the old house and moved in and began to farm the two farms."

    Land & Property:
    "The farm at Bothwell fell back on Mother and Dad's hands. Earl took it over but the people living there for four years handn't paid the taxes, fixed fences and had left it in bad shape. Earl used up what cash he had and started to farm just when you couldn't make any money no matter how hard you worked."
