I saw a column of smoke rising from the roof of the Ritz
Saturday, July 21, 2007
One fine morning in April I looked to the south towards the pavilion and I saw a column of smoke rising from the roof of the Ritz. I took a rowing boat and rowed across the bay to investigate. By the time I reached the Ritz the whole building was fully ablaze. I could not get very close because of the great heat. It was a tragic sight that this lovely building should disappear before my very eyes. My friend told me that she had heard the news on the radio she lived on the Isle of wight. An hour later the Ritz was completly gutted only the frontage and foyer survived.
