21 March 1950 – FIRE The Woonsocket Call reports the next day: “A fierce fire which raged uncontrollably despite
the efforts of massed Blackstone Valley fire companies, destroyed the three-story guest house, the adjoining chapel,
and badly damaged the infirmary of our Lady of the Valley Monastery of the Cistercian monks last night. Damage was
estimated at $2,000,000.” “There was speculation today weather the monks would rebuild the burned-out structures
since they had made preliminary plans to leave Cumberland to settle on the Alta Crest 700-acre farms in Spencer,
Mass.”
