JUST IN TIME
DASH FROM BURNING HOUSE. (Per United Pres, Association.) Auckland, March 23. Awakened by the crackling of flames, the occupants of a house in Stanley Point road escaped from their burning home in
their night attire at the height of a gale last night. Practically nothing was saved. The four occupants of the house, R. L. Cleland, owner, a married daughter, Mrs A. R. CtelandAPottic, Miss Doris Cleland and Mrs Qeland-Pottie’s seven-year-old daughter, escaped when the house was a sea of flames and had time to take with them only a few personal effects. Mrs Cleland-Pottie intended leaving Wellington by the Rangjtiki for England to-mor-row. Her luggage had already been sent to Wellington. The house was insured for £ISOO in Lloyd’s Office and the contents for £550 in the Norwich Union Office.
