G. Carscallen, M.P.P. With the build- ing of the Richmond road, the traf- -1 fic of the north country, which form- erly entered the town at the cast end, was diverted to the west, and the building of the swing bridge con- ducted the travel from the greater part of Fredericksburg through the -} same part of the town. Adex. Camp- -| bell sealed the fate of East Ward by -| building a capacious store on the +] corner of Dundas and Centre streets, in 'which he carried on an extensive business and kept the post-office, and on the opposite side of thie street He built the Campbell House, sur- united counties, The first Methodist church built in Napanee was erected in 1840 on the site of the present Trinity church. The cirouit then extended from Hay Bay to Lime Jake, and was presided over by two preachers, the first being the Revs. Cyrus. W. Allison and William Haw, and after them fol- ert Corson, Gilbert Miller, John Sanderson and Johm A. Williams. One by one the outlying sections were lopped off until 1872, = when Napanee stood alone a station of one appointment only. It was not until 1863, when the counties were separated and Napanee was proclaimed the county seat, that the villagers began to reach out for the trade of the outlying parts of the' county, and in a short time the popu- lation was nearly doubled, aud it laid aside its village customs and became a full-fledged town.

Campbell's refusal] to compromise a libel suit, which re- sulted in a verdict which the editor, under his terms of employment, was obliged to pay. He then volunteered some scathing contributions to the opposite press, The Reformer, and lost no opportunity to denounce the alleged practices of his former om- ployer. The two papers, agreed up- on one subject only. and that was the separation of the counties and the selection of Napanee as the county town. For ten years the Napanee papers waged war upon the.
