BREAKING NEWS:    From Alex Wallace, Meaford/Leith

AT APPROXIMATELY 5:45 PM THIS EVENING (SATURDAY, 6th Feb, 2010)  A PICKUP TRUCK LEFT THE ROAD IN FRONT OF LEITH CHURCH AND CAREENED ALONG THE FENCE LINE FROM THE NEW GATES IN FRONT OF THE SHED, TO A POINT JUST BEYOND THE SECOND SET OF CEMETERY GATES.

IN THE PROCESS MUCH OF THE FENCE WAS DESTROYED, INCLUDING OUR NEW GATES AND THE GATES TO THE SOUTH; THE HYDRO POLE WAS TOTALLY DEMOLISHED AND THE UNDERGROUND CABLE LEADING FROM IT TO THE CHURCH WAS YANKED SO HARD THAT IT DESTROYED THE BASE OF THE METER LOCATED ON THE SIDE OF THE CHURCH. MIRACULOUSLY, THE COMMEMORATIVE ROWAN TREE WAS SPARED.
