Page 2 The Perquimans Weekly, Hertford, N.C., Thursday, May 27, 197 Letters From Our Readers : Editors Mailbz Fire Assistance Is Appreciated ;.'':; .'v-- ' ; TOTHE EDITOR: " . - ' ' . I would like to use this media to express appreciation to the various fire fighters and individuals that assisted the Hertford Fire Department on Friday night, Hay 21st, at the ' Veneer Mill Fire. By quick action of Police Officer J.R. Logan calling the alarm in via radio expedited the initial response. - ' The efforts made years ago of organizing, training, and working for the four other fire departments in Perquimans County paid off. The two-way fire radio communication system in Perquimans County saved the day in calling for additional help. v The Winfall Fire Department was called for manpower . and apparatus response. The Belvidere-Chappell Hill Department was called for stand-by alert to cover the Belvidere, Whiteston, and Winfall area, Bethel was alerted to cover the southern and western area of the county, and Intercounty was alerted to cover Woodville, and New Hope area and send fire fighters to Hertford. Each fire depart ment had fire fighters on the scene. The Perquimans Coun ty Rescue Squad had men and vehicles on the scene as did the Sheriffs Department. , V J -''' '; A special thanks to the numerous individuals that, prepared beverages at the fire scene for the 'fire fighters. . This kind of community spirit makes the volunteer service worthwhile. V I also appreciate the information concerning the fire origin that numerous individuals have given to the in vestigating officers. CHARLES T. SKINNER JR. Chief, Hertford Fire Dept.
