This delightful summer resort in the Township of Cartwright, is situ- ated on Lake Scugog, eighteen miles north of Bowmanville. "Caesarea" was taken from the name Caesar. The Caesars set- tled here, and owned about 1000 acres from the time of the crown lands. The little cemetery on the Bowmanville road, only marked by a stone gateway, and the word Caesar, was donated by the Caesars. Bob. Caesar was buried there almost a century ago, in fact 1838. Five in- dividual monuments mark the five .cement graves in a row in the Caesar plot. Other old families are the Wil- liams, the Harrahs, the Watsons. Mr. John Watson, still enjoying an active 'climb up the eighty-ninth step on the stairway of the years, has lived here since 1865, He said the gravel road was there even then,and sawmills and lumbering were carried) on. He said he could not have lived here only for fishing as his main means of livelihood; that 'Scugog was famous then, as now, for its maskinonge and bass fishing; but even then few outweighed a "lunge recently caught here, weighing eigh- teen pounds. Mr, Watson said he had taken as much as three hundred pounds of lunge out of the lake in one day, and had caught twelve after supper. . He said the last bear was killed near the school in 1879, He also re- members when carp were put in a mill pond some few miles away. When the dam broke the carp escaped to the river and then to the lake, where some few are still to be found. those days. Mr. Watson said, many times he had seen at once, forty or fifty "jack lights" which he described as iron baskets filled with jack pine boughs and lighted. These made u great flare and used to be used by fishermen at night. Point is a mile from Huge old forest trees Williams' Caesarea, _| tower high over shubbery and, shore. Some of these trees were "planted sixty-five years ago by Paul Williams. About sixteen years ago some en- Perry, purchased eighteen acres from | the Williams' farm, and jerected a few cottages. Now there are over sixty cottages at this favorite Point. Na- ture here is- almost extravagant in her profusion of wild flowers, only|' excelled by the beauty and variety of wild birds carolling all day long their praises for a world so beautiful, Looking over the bay from Williams' Point, one could easily imagine it to be the ancient Oriental village of 'Caesarea. The "church at Caesarea was built in 1880 and for forty-five years has to record its births, marriages and deaths. It is the central social life for the approximate sixty winter residents of the village. "Before the dam" at Lindsay forced the waters back; one could walk across the creek from Washburn to Scugog Islands; now a mile and a} half of lake lies between them. Secu- gog Island comprises about ten thousand acres of land, eight hundred of which are reserved for the Indians. There has to be about' forty Indians living there to have the Reserve con- tinued by the Government. Mr, Ira Aldred's father was the first white baby born on Scugog Island. The name Aldred is handed down from There was no fishing' season in| terprising folk, I believe from Port| stood to bless the community life, and | King Alfred who was called Aldred, because all evaded his power of con- quest, The Islands Iciease, and complete pect pleases.", The shore-lines, un- dulated, pointed, graceful, wooded, are so restful to linger near or on, The altitude of 822 fet above sea level is" such a delightful blessing to a summer resort: here breezes-- re- freshing, stimulating, bracing, fresh, clear, invigorating, is so helpful along every line of health, as well as just pleasure in holiday rest. The early dawning is indeed glor- ious as one awakens rested and re- freshed--all the world anew. But at eventide, to linger on the shore of Williams' Point, 'and revel in' the 'sinking sun clings to us with a golden 'band of promise across the waters, one thinks of that exquisite gem of of lyric literature known as Tenny- son, "Bugle Song." evidently standing on the eastern shore of an English lake at sunset hour, listening to the echoes dying among those lovely 'English hills. He 'closes the poem by reminding us that echoes of oour lives do not die, but "roll from soul to soul, and grow forever and forever." : So come to Caesarea to-find plea- sure, rest, peace, health, beauty and happiness. <i SCUGOG The Centre Sunday School Supt., Mr. W.
