"prema Sa SRST teers co ee Late by Murray Moore Senior Writer Cassocks, Doublets, and Deerskins, is the title of a special book under production at Redwin Graphics of Midland. The book preserves the research of the late Nan- cy Penny, Sainte-Marie among the Hurons's tailor for about seven years, ending in 1983. She died at age 39, of multiple sclerosis, in February, 1986. A SP eC NC AE pt A i RIE a a RI os tailor's research is preserved Family and _ close friends donated money to make the book possible, to the Nancy Penny Memorial Fund. Apart from a paper on the clothing of the donnes (the servants of the Jesuit missionaries), completed in 1983, most of her ex- tensive research, until recently, remained in the form of notes, and files containing references and other information taken from published works, archival material, and personal com- Power failure Insulator the A broken insulator the size of two fists was the reason for a local power failure last Thursday. Power was off in Waubaushene, Victoria Harbour, Port McNicoll, Tay Township and part of Midland, between 11:11 a.m. and 11:44 a.m. Power was restored in the Honey Harbour area by 2 p.m. The broken insulator was on the 44,000 volt hydro line near the Honey Harbour Road. When the lights went out during a meeting of Tay Township council, township deputy treasurer and tax collec- tor Shelley Gonneau was heard loudly expressing her frustration that the work of nearly an entire morning of six people on the township's computers had disappeared with the lights. Vandalism is the usual explanation for a broken insulator, Ron Vance, On- tario Hydro Penetanguishene office manager, said. Power was cut in the Honey Harbour area on Feb. 15 for the same reason, Vance said: a broken insulator. The Feb. 15 and March 9 broken insulators were one-quarter mile apart. , 2 Posted Lisa McKelvie has been accepted by the Ontario Provincial Police and presently is posted to the Maxville Detachment. She com- pleted her orientation training at the OPP Col- lege in Aylmer last Oc- tober. She attended the course in Toronto in February through the forensic sciences on the operation of breathalizer equip- ment. Lisa is a graduate of Midland Secondary School and earned her BSC from the University of Waterloo. "We're starting to get concerned," Vance said. Hydro employees could not find evidence on the ground last Thursday that a person with a shotgun or rifle had been there. The insulators are 50 feet above the ground on poles. Examination of the in- sulator at Hydro's research lab will indicate if it was broken by a bullet or shotgun pellets, Vance said. The lab report on the insulator which broke on Feb. 15 has not been received. Several chips on it suggested it had munications with experts in a variety of fields related to 17th century costume. Patrick Folkes, an historian who has work- ed for Huronia Historical Parks, turned _ the material into a manuscript. He is co- author of Cassocks, Doublets, and Deerskins. Her husband, Burke, HHP manager, resource development department, and her father-in-law, Harry Penny, at the time the director of the Centre Cause been struck by shotgun pellets, Vance said. That insulator broke early in the day. The insulator which broke last Thursday split cleanly, which isn't natural, he said. Insulators struck by a bullet or pellets don't always break immediate- ly. Water collects in the cracked porcelain and freezes. The insulator breaks weeks or months later. Hydro makes a point of checking insulators bet- ween the fall hunting season and the start of winter, Vance said. Laurie Joan Reynolds, daughter of Willis and Theora Reynolds and David Alexander McKeeman, son of Donald McKeeman of Kin- cardine, were married Oct. 15 in the Church of 'the Good Shepherd in Wyebridge.
