Briefly. the building of Solomon’s 'l‘emple coincides with the birth of ’Cral’t Masonry. while the temple erected by Zerubbel signified the birth of Royal Arch Masonry. Mr. (.lrol't’s lecture was the linking up of these two periods and a resume of historical events as all‘ecting Ma- sonry that occurred during the in- tervening years.

Robert Allen, in 85th Year, Tolls Chronicle In 0! Experiences of Early Days. . Transportation problems in 1925 have their difficulties and today a man with a motor car who cannot “make” Arthur, 30 miles south of here on the Provincial Highway, in .an hour flat, is sadly out of date. This dizzy pace, however, was un~ believable in 1845, and on Monday afternoon, The Chronicle reporter spent a pleasant hour with Mr. Rob- 2 ert Allen of Glenelg listening to him recounting his experiences when he and his parents and two brothers came up into the “wilds of Glenelg” in the year 1845, just, 80 years ago. Many and varied were the exper- iences encountered, and though only five years of age at the time, Mr. Allen still retains a vivid mind picâ€" ture of his trip from York Town- ship, near what was then known as "Hogg’s Hollow,” to Durham, and subsequently to Glenelg. Calling ufiexpectedly at the home of Mrs. W. J. McFarlanc, (tinglatter a sister), with whom the old genâ€" tleman makes his home, we found Mr. Allen hard at work and getting ready to put in his garden stutf, for though Mr. McFarlane has his own garden on another part of the farm, Mr. Allen has never yet been will- ing to forego the pleasure of a plot of his own, sown, tended and har- vested by himself, and in which he takes great pride. And in watching him in his various activities, one would never guess that next August ?he, will celebrate the 85th anniver- sary ot ‘his birth: . Mr. Allen was born in Ireland in 1840. the son of the late Mr. and Mrs. James Allen, and came to Can- ada a babe in arms in- 1841, the fam- ily settling in York Township, where they resided for four years and- where two other sons were born. In 1845, they started on their long trek to the “North Country” and came as far as Arthur with horses and wag’on. At Arthur, one look at the trail ahead was enough for the owner of the team, and he refused to go further, and oxen had to be re- sorted to to bring the family’s household etTects the remainder of ithe journey. _ m a. I ____A_-_- 'l‘he househoud effects, however, ‘ filled all the space available, and 'the family had to walk. The sub- 'ject of this sketch, five years of age, had to “hitiof’” it all the way, but the two younger children, aged three and one year, were carreid in turn by father and mother though the older one was forced to negoti- ate the major portion of the jour- ney on foot. The trip through the unbroken bush and following the blazed trail was uneventful and happily without SOPlOUS accident, though many stOps had to be made to adjust the load when it became dislodged through the rude cart humping over l'n'ottuling stumps or the wheels sinking in hidden hOIes, . In the swamps, too, consic‘lerable ' difficulty was experienced, as these were in those days fllled with wa- - ter, and the roads generally took the l shortest route through, the soft ' places being made safe. for traffic ' by filling with trees and logs and in L the most dangerous places, filling - in with dirt. IV On reaching Durham, or rather, what was eventually to become the town, the first over-night step was made. in the vicinity of Corktown hill with Mr. McAnulty, (father of Mr. Thomas McAnulty, still resid- ing herel, who, though a bachelor, gladly shared his log house with the travellers and made them heartily welcome. The site on which Dur- igham now stands was then a virgin forest, and with the exception of the Hunter tavern in Upper Town, there were no houses then to be seen. The family settled on the ,0wen Sound! road two miles north of here, op- posite to where Mr. Dan McAl’thm‘ now resides, subsequently taking up land now occupied by Mr. W. J. Mc- farlane. Here. the remaining mem- bers of the family were born. and the subject, of this sketch grew to young manhood, afterwards engag- ing in lumbering and timbering around Teeswater, running the logs down the 'I‘eeswater river to South- ampton. He also was engaged for a time at Ancastcr as a hewer of ship timber. -â€"A I. All l'pwards of 50 years ago. Mr. Allen married Miss Eliza Brandon of Al- liston. who died in Durham about nine years ago. To them were horn=‘ four sons and two daughters: John and Joseph in the West. Herb and George in Glenelg. Mrs. Hiram Dean in Durham and Mrs. H. Haws in Meaford. Following the marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Allen took up farming in Glenelg on the farm now occu- pied by his son.

Mr. Allen is, too, we have been told, the oldest Orangeman in Dur- ham District, having been a mem- ber for over 60 years. a record of which he is exceedingly proud.
