10-Qraiîo Weekly Times, Wednesday, February 7th, 197$ Kendal News Cast thy bread upon the waters : for thou shalt find it after many dpys. Ecclesiastes 11:1 The up and down weather continues. Fortunately, we . cleatied our stove pipes on the last Saturday in January for we haven't had any mild weather since. We often have a thaw around Valentine's Day. Each day gets a "rooster step" longer. On Sunday morning some of our congregation managed to get to church in spite of blustery weather and poor road conditions. Mrs. A. Foster was back from California California and playing the Hammond Hammond organ; Rev. A. Tizzard told the children an interesting interesting story of the squid. He had one in a bottle to show them.- On Sunday Rev. A. Tizzard had reached the last book of the old testament, the book of ■ Mala chi.

Powers was born in the state of New York but early in life settled near Brockville, removing in 1832 .to what was then the wilderness wilderness of Clarke. "Our family had one team of horses and one yoke of oxen when they started from Brockville and nine days were spent on the journey to where the village of Orono now stands," said Mr, Powers. They were obliged to cross the Trent River and narrowly escaped drowning in doing so. On the last stage of the journey they had to cut a road for four miles through the woods in order to reach the future site of Kirby. The only settlers in the neighbourhood at the time were two families ôf Baldwins and an old bachelor named Eldad Johns. A bear was treed and shot the day the Powers arrive,d A bear was treed and shot the day the Powers arrived, and Mr, Powers' first night was passed in the lee of a fallen pine with the boughs forming a roof. The first Christmas Day was spent in packing flour from Munro's Mill near Newcastle to their home at Kirby. Mr. Powers, his father and two brothers each carried a load home on his buçk. F.R.
