"In 1929 the vacant Lowell Mason School on School Street, recently purchased by Evelyn Byng, burned to the ground. Firefighters were unable to extinguish the two-story wooden building due to a lack of water and had to stand around and watch it burn. The school was in the process of being demolished before the fire and workers had already taken off the roof before the fire destroyed the rest of the school."
