Many sent to * * One of the busiest places in town ten years ago was the T. N. O. teleâ€" graph office. There were six teleâ€" graphers at work there on Saturday and Sunday, February l1th and 12th, 1928, and an enormous amount of work was handled. The staff worked pracâ€" tically day and night, and everything was handled in fine way. Literally hundreds of personal and commercial telegrams were handled, to say nothing of the mass of press telegrams. On Saturday the total of wires handled for individuals and firms was close to The vacancies on the town council ten years ago were filled by the elecâ€" tion by acclamation of Messrs. R. Richardson and C. P. Ramsay. A message of sympathy sent here ten years ago by Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King, Premier of Canada, was as folâ€" lows: ‘"My colleagues join with me in sending this expression of deep conâ€" cern and sorrow in the great calamity that has overtaken your community. Please convey our sincere sympathy to the bereaved families and to those who are so anxiously awaiting news of the survivors." C. G. Williams, for instance, seemed | to go without rest as he was always on the job. He made innumerable trips, underground and took a leading part n the resecue work. Another heroic and tireless worker in rescue effort was Capt, A. W. Young. Others werel Geo. Jones and Dan McInnis. The list of those who worked tirelessly during this need is long and pays tribute to| the unselfishness and nobility of men! at times of need. The time made by the special train sent from Toronto to Timmins ten| years ago to bring equipment to help! in the rescue work at the Hollinger Mine was a new record. The trip was made in fourteen hours, which was five hours less than the schedule time. The special, which consisted of the engine and two coaches, left Toronto at eight o‘clock, Friday right, and reached the Hollinger siding at 9.58 Saturday morning. The work of gathâ€" ering supplies, etc., was started at 6 p.m. and everything was ready in two hours. For this the greatest credit was due to Mayor McBride, of Toronâ€" to, and the other officials there, espeâ€" cially the fire department and the people in general. At the Hollinger Mine ten years ago there were literally scores of heroic and tireless men. Hardly any 6f the higher officials of the mine secured more than an hour or two of s‘eep a night for several successive nights. Mr. Ten years ago a very impressive memorial service was held in the Neéw Empire theatre. Overshadowed as it was by the distressing mine tragedy and the consequent sorrow existing in their midst, the attendance was surâ€" prisingly large under the sad local conditions. The ceremony was held to honcur the memory of the late Fieldâ€" Marshal Earl Haig, the Grand Presiâ€" dent of the British Empire Service League, and conducted under <~the auspices Of the Timmins brarch of the Canadian Legion. The annual meeting of the Timmins Pcost No. 88 of the Canadian Legion, British Empire Service League, was held in the town hall, Timmins, ten years ago. There was a very good atâ€" tendance Oof Legionnaires present, amorg whom were two of the town councillors. Prior to the opening of the meeting a considerable amount was collected in dues, and ballot papers were ccllected from those present, and added to those previously received through the post. When the Hollinger mine workings filled with smoke and gas from the fire burning in the old stope at the 550â€" foot leve} ten years ago, some of the smoke and gas drifted over to the McIntyre Mine‘s workings adjoining, the spread of the vapours and ‘"umes being made possible by the fact thatl on the 550â€"foot level of the Mcintyre there is a connection with the workâ€" ings of the Hollinger, and it was thought that this opening might be used to allow some of the imprisoned men in the Hollinger to get to safety from the gas and fumes. When it was found that the connectinz link could not be used for this purpose, the opening was effectively closed and sealed so that the McIntyre would not be affected by the gases and smoke. In the meantime however, as a preâ€" cautionary measure, all the underâ€" ground men at the McIntyre were brought to the surface and all work opr the levels affected was discontinâ€" ued for the time. In The Toronto Star ten years ago: "The frankness and readiness for the most searching enquiry into the Holâ€" linger Mine fire, exhibited at all times by the mine executives, is a credit to an organization which might have been defended for a closemouthed policy at a time of such uncertainâ€" ties and anxieties. On Saturday mornâ€" ing The Star was given a fulll list ol the miners whose fate had been ascertained and those still missing, and so accurate was it that it stood uyp fully under the test of late developâ€" ments. On Saturday noon, within a very few minutes of the finding of five men alive by the rescue party, an account was given to The Star men there, so that it appeared in The Star and was being read on the streets a scant half hour later. Finally, the president of Hollinger Consolidated Mines, Limited, Noah Timmins, a few minutes after coming out of the mine on Sunday night, read to a Star staff reporter his own personal notes madso during the progress of the fire." Local items in The Advance ten years ago:â€"‘"Mr. Donald R. Henderâ€" son, of Hamilton, was a Timmins visâ€" itor last week. It was his first visit here since 1922, and he was much imâ€" pressed with the great development evident." "R,. McDougall sued the town of Haileybury for $200 damages to his motor car which upset while lie was trying to avoid a barrier placed across one of the Haileybury streets, Mr. McDougall claimed regligence on the part of the town, but the judge held the town was not liable and so the action was dismissed." ‘"Mrs, T. M. White left on Tuesday morning to join her husband at Sudbury, where Mr. White was recently sent by the Arthu; E. Moysey Co. as the manager of their branch office there." ‘"Mr. N. A. Timâ€" mins, president of the Hollinger Conâ€" solidated Gold Mines, Limited, came up from Montreal when the news arâ€" rived of the accident at the mine and he returned to Timmins immediateâ€" ly." ‘"The Kiwanees cancelled the dance which was to have been held in the Masoric hall here Tuesday evening because of the disaster at the Hollinâ€" ger." ‘"‘Dr. A. C. Ross returned last week from a holiday trip in the South.
