Ten patients at Abington Memorial Hospital were relocated to another building yesterday after a "smoky" smell was detected on a maternity floor. The fire department was called at 3:17 p.m. after sparks from workers' tools landed in some insulation and smoldered, causing the smell, according to hospital officials. The workers were installing a heating and air-conditioning unit in the basement of the Highland Building. The patients were on the second floor. There were no injuries and the move was precautionary, according to hospital officials. - Mari A. Schaefer .

Tension lingers at Marble Rock Council session

But Merfeld later drew up a second agenda and hand-delivered it to council members Sunday in addition to posting it at City Hall.That agenda included some of the same items that were on the first agenda but did not include appointment of a city attorney as the first agenda did.At the beginning of the meeting, Merfeld read a statement to the council."I will not consider any appointment for city attorney until all of the members of the City Council and the citizens of Marble Rock have been fully informed concerning the possible appointees, such as hourly fees, travel expense, availability for meetings, retainer fees, experience and more," he said.Merfeld also said he was not going to ask for approval of the agenda for that night but proceed directly into the meeting."There will be no prior comments allowed by any of the members of the City Council as they will more than likely result in the city’s urgent business not being addressed," he said."You can’t just sit there on your bully pulpit and dictate to us," Handley said.Engelhardt, Wells and Handley voted to approve the first agenda that was posted.
