Phil's search into the past (From Warrington Guardian)

Phil's search into the past

PHIL Jones stepped back in time when he had a nosy in his grandad's loft.

He discovered a copy of the GUARDIAN dated March 1914, from the days when the paper was a broadsheet and was on sale on Saturday.

Phil, of Brick Street, was visiting his grandad, a former Warrington resident, at his home in Widnes when he made the surprising discovery. He also found a copy of a newspaper produced by the Sydney Stock Exchange in 1954.

Someone had made notes on the cover of the GUARDIAN about the death of a woman called Eliza Dobson. Phil says he has no idea who she is, but would be interested in finding out.

If you have any information, call reporter Suzanne Elsworth on 434109.
