> The century-old Lee house, before it was installed on the grounds of the Scugog Shores Mrs. Jean McTaggart, Seagrave Museum. The circa-1860 house now rests on a new stone foundation. Donates $1000 to Museum Mrs. Jean McTaggart of Seagrave has donated $1,000 to the Scugog Shores Mu- seum to provide for the installation of a new furnace in the cellar of "the Lee House." The Lee house is a recent addition to the museum site. Situated on a small plot of land near the main building (the school house), the circa 1860 house donated by Ernest Lee of Greenbank was moved to its present location in May, 1972. It will be outfitted as an historic house typical of those found in Reach, Port Perry, Scugog, or Cartwright, in the late nineteenth century. An eight foot excavation was made under thé Lee house last summer. This basement will provide val- uable storage space as well as a work area. The lower foundation wall is made of concrete blocks, but the upper three feet which can be seen from the outside of the house is constructed of old fashioned stone-and-- mortar for historical verisi- militude. " Bill Brock, chairman of the Museum Board, has expressed the fear that winter damage to the found- ation was possible. Freezing water could easily crack the walls. A furnace was ur- gently needed to heat the basement interior and pre- HEAT YOUR HOME WITH RELIABLE, CLEAN, SAFE FUEL. Call REESOR for a tank of Oil.

Whem Mrs. Jean McTaggart heard about the plight of the Lee house, she came to the rescue. Her timely donation will allow museum officials to breathe easier. Last week, workmen were getting ready to lay the concrete basement floor over a gravel base. Heat lamps were hung from the ceiling, raising the temp- erature a few degrees. With the furnace installation, the Lee house cellar will be effectively completed. Mr. Brock stated that upcoming plans will be the renovation of the house interior, generally, and the plastering of its walls, speci- fically. A new chimney flue was recently installed. The plastering job promises a real challenge, since every wall and ceiling in the house requires work. But this formidable prospect doesn't quell Bill Brock, who's used to big jobs; like trans- forming an idea into a burgeoning, community oriented organization such as the Scugog Shores Museum in the span of three or four short years. - Kloo Lake, on the Alaska Highway, north of Vancou- ver, Yukon, was named after the Indian name for "fish".
