Glenelg had more. of a population 50 and 60 years ago than it. has now For instanCe, from Price-ville to Durham. there VV as a family almost on men titty acres. Nowadays there are some half and whole miles with- out. a resident. However. the lots are there the same. Seventy or 72 years ago, there were no less than I or 8 VV hisky .4hOps from Price- ville to Durham. Whisky was cheap then. 'l‘en or twelve traVelling to- gether could be treated for 25 cents. and if there VVern one or more in the company “he didn't indulge. they passed along taking no notice of the temptfltel dens HOVVeV'eP. as there was and is the best VVater priVileges in the eountv. those get- ting thirsty drank freely from the cooling streams on a sultry July day and preferred using their 25 cents for their dinner. In olden times. Glenelg had not less than four grist’ mills and saw millsâ€"one at Pomono Purdy‘s‘. one near Markdale, Bar ead mill one at TraVerston. one, at Hayward 4 Falls. And the same num- ber of saw mills. Traverston grist mill i4 there. and probably the new pmpiietor will resume its old time work of long ago. In two of the other4 only the sites are to be seen where they stood. Glenroadin mills are again doing business this win- ter. There are twelve schOOls in Glenelg. all told. and are taught by lady teachers with the exception of two or three. Sixty or 70 years ago there more harle any lady teach- ers. but nowadays. one out of a hundred is a male teacher. In the old 8, S. No. 2. Durham Road, the late. Arch.

The hills and hollows were as they came from the hands of the Creator. The low and swampy places had some kind of log crossing or causeway. The woods along the pathway were howling true to the reputation of February of many» years ago. In passing through the township of Glenelg. our experience is that very few of those that en- tered its woods of 75 years ago are to be found, and{ if any} are now fallen with the passing of the many years slnl'o entering the unbroken forest. Those that came three vears ago to Edge llill line are. Mr. David Robinson anal family of Normanby. to tlw Mon'nt farm. and the McDon- alcls for the South Line. Glenelg. PAGE 8.
