Peter Quinn To Retire COBOURG Postmaster at the general post office, Cobourg, since 1949, Peter Quinn is to re- tire early in September postal services as a night clerk Mr. Quinn started with the in 1936 when the hours were long and the pay none too generous. His hours were from 7 p.m. each night until 8 a.m. the next morn- ing. The pay? $50 a month. Born and educated in Cobourg, Peter Quinn first served under two different postmasters the late Cecil Peteson and the late Morgan Hewson. He became post- master himself in 1949 During his service he saw the inauguration of postal delivery to the town and the addition made to the old post office at the corner of King and Division streets. Although he must conform with retirement regulations, Peter Quinn hopes to continue work in another field of endeavor. He is a member of St. Michael's Church and of the Cobourg Knights of Columbus. Succeeding the retiring post- master will be George Leetham, Cobourg, who joined the post of- fice in 1941. Although there was considerable, smoke there was no damage. The trouble had been caused by an overheated electric dryer. Fire Chief Lucius Hooper had the fire- men disconnect the machine, and the smoke subsided. Mr. Champ then called an electrician to find out what had gone amiss and caused the dryer to over heat.
