  • Notes 
    • Nora Carlaw recorded from the Elora Express - 1927

      On returning home from Listowel, Mr. and Mrs. Tuckey noticed a fire at the farm house of Mr. Walter Carlaw on the Salem-Elmira road. Neighbours from around, quickly congregated, some from Elora, and succeeded in moving all the furniture from the house even the doors and windows being saved. The house itself was gutted but the flames did not spread to any of the other buildings. Fire started on the roof from sparks from the chimney.
