Tyrone, Ireland, and enimijiraieil to this country in the year 1850, settling in Artennsia leu years later, in October of l!i<J0. Mr. Park followed tile musical jirofossion to a C'Utain extent in the (dd coiiiiiry, and (ilayed before many lords and gentleman of liiuh degree, includiii'; Lord Heresford, Sic Robert Ferguson, Capt. Hamilloii, Lord John Ruasoil, Lord Claude and Sir John B irgoyne. Ho was also in the linen manufacturing business previous to coming over. After coming to Canada ho was offered good situations in Philailelphia and other placxs as a musician, but a strong penchant for the faun drew him into this now country whore ho bowed out for himsolf a home, and raised a laige family.
