Fire forces family out of home

A fire late Sunday forced a mother and four children out of their home in Travellers Rest, near Summerside, P.E.I.

The five are staying with relatives. The woman's husband is working out of province. No one was at home at the time of the fire.

The two-storey house was extensively damaged.

The Canadian Red Cross will meet with the family Monday morning to arrange emergency purchases of clothing, food and other essentials while the insurance claim is being settled.
