Original Toronto Star caption: A 4-Year-old Boy using a lighted candle to hunt under his bed for a missing shoe started the fast-spreading fire that did $6;000 damage and left the nine members of his family homeless. Firemen fighting the blaze; on Salem Ave. near Bloor St. W.; say they were amazed there was no loss of life.
