LOCAL people have really rallied to the rescue following an a p p e a l to k e ep the Clitheroe meals-on-wheels service on the road.

IT’S birthday time in the Earnshaw house­ hold next week. Irene will be 20 on Tuesday and husband Stuart 21 three days later. But for the young. Scots couple, married two years ago, the celebrations are likely to be dark and dismal.


The reason? Mr and Mrs’


Earnshaw have been without electricity in their terraced home in Taylor S t re e t ,


: Clitheroe, since they moved in - nine weeks ago. Their.only means of lighting


• is an oil camping lamp which they carry from room to room. And when it’s time for bed, th e y don’t go u p s ta irs , because they feel the bedroom is damp without heating — they sleep downstairs on cush­ ions.


Rewiring The couple, who moved


from Scotland to Clitheroe a year ago, hope to settle here. They were living temporarily


with friends when they saw an advertisement in the Oxfam shop window for a rented house. Needless to say, they were delighted at the chance to set up their own homo.


. . I t was only when they


asked the Electricity.Board to check, the meter that their troubles began. As well as finding that it wag faulty, it appeared th at the house needed completely rewiring, and e le c tr ic ian s finally


removed the meter for safety. Mr and Mrs Earnshaw,


as such the house >vas not officially his. He thought that the coat of


restoring electricity would probably be about‘£150 and suggested the; couple should have the’work carried out t h e m s e l v e s . He a ls o suggested that they might like to look round for another house.. Speaking for the landlord —


Mr Kaslan Singh — his son — Mr Gurmail Singh — told the Advertiser and Times that his father had bought the house in T a y lo r S t r e e t f rom a Clitheroe woman for £400 about six months ago! I t was in a bad state of

1, 000.


,. Though he was aware of the ' need for rewiring, at present .th e re was a legal dispute about the purchase of the house, which might have to bo

from £6 to £5. • The Earnshaws put their

‘‘He recognised th at it

Mr Gicndinning took the


toin to the curate of Black­ burn Museum, Mr A. Lewis,.


On close examination Mr


Lewis .was able to identify where it was minted by the quatrefoil — a mark which distinguishes an old coin’s town of origin.


He also deciphered an


inscription round the edge of th e c o in w h ich re ad s : ‘‘Civitas .' Eboraci” — the Latin for City of York — despite the fact that many, of the letters-were missing.: ,

scheduled to begin th is ; weekend for the town’s 10 general practitioners. Yes­ terday their spokesman, Dr : Patrick Hoytc, told the Advertiser and Times: “We ; are all very pleased with the • new building. At last the dream of having virtually all the town’s medical services under one roof is nearing


reality.” Doctors’ representatives

Patients in any doubt dur­


ing the changeover period should telephone their doc­ to r ’s present surgery for advice. Hopes are high that the


transfer of the three prac­ tices to the Lowfield centre,


said, be the contents of the p re sen t dispensaries and medical records — but the doctors will no doubt take th e o p p o r tu n i ty fo r a thorough “spring clean.” , First to move in will be the

The two-larger practices

'still be 22674. that of Dr Cas­ sidy 22144. But Drs Smith and Hoyte will have a new number.. 25201. •


Out-of-hours calls will, as


at present, be rerouted to the duty doctor of each practice by the GPO.
