Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Only toilet standing: David McDonald Still wonders how a toilet in a ground-floor washroom of his Tottenham home survived last week's tornado. The toilet was the only thing left standing after the McDonald home was flattened. Even the fireplace was knocked down and that thing's still standing; said McDonald; whose wife; two daughters and mother-in-law escaped injury in the disaster.
