Last week I mentioned that due to the weather there were some auto accidents and chimney fires. Saturday evening a Cabot family was burned out of their home and nearly lost their lives. Had it not been for the youngest Hansen boy alerting his family, all may have been seriously hurt or killed. As it was, they lost all their possessions, including the family car. The Hanson family lived near the Mollys Falls Dam, just off of Route 2 going west. The Town is rallying to aid them, thanks to the Cabot School Crisis Team's efforts, and Winnie Mundinger (426-3254) is coordinating the drive. Cabot School has a list of items this family will need which includes things such as bedding, towels, kitchen ware, dishes, small appliances, lamps, etc. Winnie will be able to tell you what is needed at this point. Any help will be most appreciated, I'm sure. The Hanson boys are in grades 4, 10, and 11 at Cabot School.
