piling up money the father decided that he would like to run one of the big manitoba farms he sold his property here and moved to a farm his big son donald selected for him here he remained until the infirmities of old age made forming too big a burden for him it was then his heart turned again to the old home about this time donald and his partner william mc- kenalo were knighted by the king in recognition of their great achievement in constructing the canadian northern rallvay a transcontinental road from the atlantic to the pacific they got their honors and their oldtime friends jovially dubbed them sir bill and sir j dan and these names stuck well slr dan came home and selected the old collins farm for a home for his father he lived the remainder of his days there and there he died

children and their successors on this fine oa propert well the next farm below has a his tory too it was there that lachlan mcdonald mrs john warren s brother began his career as a leading farmer and business man he ran the farm for a time then he began buying grain in acton then he built the big frame block on main street with three stores in front residence above and a grain ware house behind but lachlan reached out a little too far in his business enter prises to his own and some others dis advantage and he went broke but he was a man of enterprise went to the united states where he engaged in many activities finally he- came back and spent his last days here and i think a as burled in fairview cemetery nearly eighty years ago hugh mann disposed of his farm at the fourth line on

lumber sawyer and for years held the position of head sawyer at smiths mills he was absolutely reli able faithful ond expert and vied every day to be able to show the biggest possible cut of lumber and get the last board out of every log wnt up into the mill he was a hard worker and whan the mill business began to play out hr came up here and bought this farm with his sons and himself be almost in- variably had good crops but the time came when our good friend martin had to give up hes been sleeping over in dublin cemetery for a good many years now his two son joe and jlm etul run the farm and not satisfied with the 100 acres thiy bought the old burns farm where ray good friend joe arthurs farmed ao long z think the boys have 300 acres now many of us remember the big spring which flows
