The residence was purchased in 1949 by the department of high- provisions of the Lord's Day Act. He said he was considering mak- ing an appeal to Queen's Park on the matter. No reasons were given why the demonstration was called off, but one official said that the whole exercise was designed to give volunteer firemen a workout. It was not intended as a public spectacle, but was part of the Durham county plan to coordi- nate civil defence exercises.
