The plan in the first place was to build the road from Walkerton to Lucknow but MrSbaw suggested that the road run from Hanover and he said that it would be more satisfactory to the people of the county of Bruce to have the road run from Hanover rather than from Walkerton for the reason that the only means of communicacion that the people I of the Northern part of Bruce Count y have with Walkerton, the County town, is â€"by the Grand Trunk running from Wiarton South to Hanover and a C.
