Three buildings owned by Mrs. Planchet Miss Josie Welch's News Stand J. W. Watts' Machine Shop Thos. W. Evans Drug Store With this conflagration is wiped away one of the oldest landmarks:	Father Leduc's beautiful Church of Our Lady
of the Gulf with its four dialed town clock and the bells (a
gift from Mrs. Schiller), which for all these years sounded the different events - joyous and solemn - as was their office to do. There was something almost human when the church clock struck 7:30 just as the steeple which encased it crumbled and fell. (Sea Coast Echo -Nov. 16, 1907).

Larry O'Donnel and Miss Mary Butler, daughter of Mr. Frank N. Butler. (SCE 8/6/1892)
