Franklin, lived ta the close o! the reign o! Qucen Victoria, 1903, and tound bis last rest in. Bow- manville Cemeteny. Over this span of years Mn. Franklin was able ta recaîl events that took place in three sepanate centuries for bis memory rcmained clean at 109 years o! age. Older citizens will recaîl that Mn. Franklin lived for many years on Scugog St. The Statesman bas quite a file o! records on the cancer o! tbis remankable man and only recently bis grandson, P. M. Franklin, 1693 Batburst St., Toronto, sent us particulars of an interview the Toronto Star had with bis grand- John C. Franklin tather shortly before hic death. The story appearcd in the Star in 1903. It is summarized as fol- lows: "Mn. Franklin at the age o! 109 retains a remarkably clean miem- ory. He was born an the Bay o! Dublin an Hallowe'cn Night, 1794, before the great Irish Rebellion. Hie birth is negictcred in anc a! the English Churches in Dublin. On account o! being born on Hàl- lowe'en hie mother made bîm promise be would neyer play any game af chance as he would al- ways be made ta win by the tain- ice and winning would bring bim harm. Sa tbmougbout hic lite he neyer gambled. "Wben 19, be wen&t ram Dublin ta the Loch Erne country ta avoid being conscripted againet Napol- con and be mecalied the excitement in Ircland at the thmeatcned in- vasion o!

Then he went to, Cornwall wherc be lived until the Mackenzie rebdil- ion. He joined the militia and was present at the attack an Prescott, around the historic windmill. He later fougbt against the insurgents in Lowcr Canada wbene be was wounded in the thigh by a musket bail and bis knapsack was slasbcd off by a sabre. "I wae a sharpehooter," said Mn. Franklin, "and give me three fingers a! whiskey and 1 could neyer miss." Atter the rebellion he went to Myarmora wberc he livcd several years before going ta Belleville and then Bowman- ville. The Stan reporter com- mented on the amazing memory a! Mn. Franklin and his taculty for recounting anecdotes. Alwaye a bard worker he saîd: "If I were ta live as long again I think I would enjoy life as wcll as ever but would take more recreation and lese bard work." Mn. P. M. Franklin still pays taxes on the Scugog St. property left *by hie grandfatber.

PONTYPOOL About slxty years' aga, hait a dozen yaung men left their homes in Castieton and journeyed ta Pontypool to seek employment in ane af the steam saw milii oper- ating in that vicinlty. One of themflot only found employmnent, but he found a girl that he liked well enough to marry, ber nanie was Martha Graham. The newly weds made their home here for ail their married lite until they decided, a few short years ago, ta move ta Oshawa. In contraat to the bigh wages received today, this couple raised their fanuly on $1.00 per day, which constituted the daily wage of the men work- ing on the C.P.R. at that time. Later tbis couple bougbt a farm 11/2 miles east of McCrea's Churcb, still later, tbey moved to Ponty- pool village and engaged in the meat business. Nearly two years ago the wife and mother passed on and was buried in McCrea's Cemetery. On Sunday afternoon Jim Masters slippcd quietly out of tbis lite, over the great Divîde. For forty-eigbt years be had been a member of the local Oddfellows Lodge. Before this appears in print, be will have been borne to bis last resting place at McCrea's Cburch, beside bis wife. Harry Monk bas sold his farmn to Percy Beggs and will probably go back to Toronto to live. Some time ago Mrs. Monk fell trom the "swing" beam in their barn, no doubt this injury bas bad an In- fluence in tbe tarm sale. Recent heavy raine bave check- ed torest tires, freshened Up pas- tures and helped plowing. If Mr. and Mrs. Falth keep the present quality of their products up, tbe resulting demand wiil amn- ply repay their good judgment in deciding to start in the bakery business here. Mr. and Stan Fisher and cbild-, ren bave moved to Hastings, we are sorry to cee them go, because the wbole bunch were live wires, the children reacbing the age whenc they were bccoming quite an asset to the social and business lite of tbis community. At last its bappened, the sugar ration is off, and up jumps the price to $11.00 per hundredwcight. Don't kid yourself, that that is the end, the boys that pull the strings will manipulate it to 15c a pound betore next preserving. time. We figure that will be close to the sa- turation point, after which the public wan't buy and tbe price will start dipping downward, but that, my dean readers will occupy a cycle of around 18 months. Will the restaurants and botels stili go on skimping us on sugar? We wondcr! Our local restaurant has always played tain. Quite a lot of our local folks went ta, Bowmanville to see the Egg and I.
