Call and see us, Qalder‘s Block dB SELLS CHEAP THE DURKHAM REVIEW Roderick â€" Cochrane â€" Recalls Early Durham. Four years later, an evening in June found me once more at the Buckâ€" thorn. Father did not know me but mother who was in bed knew my voice and was up in a minute. Mr Robt Cochrane kindly handed us the following reminiscent letter from, bis brother. It was not meant for nubllution. but it is just the kind of tter that should be preserved. It will make inure-tini reading to his friends and to all who yalue historiâ€" cal allusions to the origin of the place. Mr R. Cochrane informs us that the Bob Turner alluded to used to luong :o see the world. Ho enlisted in Toronto, was drafted to Gibraltar and died there. 'Bright "I had to %0: and several journeys father and I made to Dansâ€" more,s mill at the Rocky Saugeen with five bushels of grist on the ox sleigh in June or other summer months. Iremember one occasion we had to stop all night and on the way home we called at, I think Schoffield‘s store which was then near the Rockf'. and father asked â€" for cheese. Ifancy he might as readâ€" ily gotten ‘"Durham Portland Cemâ€" ent.‘‘ No doubt he was put down as " a dade " by the natives, for thanks to his aamirable pride, father never left the farm uniess he wore a white shirt and starched sollar. _On that same occasion we called at Hunter‘s as he wanted a piece for me, my rec» ollection is they did not have any bread in the house, and that was a condition that prevailed in more housâ€" ses than Hunter‘s. ‘Two or thrce years went by then yon came, and how glad I was, tor shere was no boy in the neighborhood to talk toâ€"for we did not know anything about play â€"but Bob Turner._ How often I bave recalled Bob Tuarner and his lame father ! Time sped, and it was decided that I should go to New Saram to attend school. The morning of the 6th of June found William Mountain, Uncle Hector and myself ready to start ‘to the front‘ with all our possessions tied in handkerchiefs carried on our shoulders on the end of a stick. Father‘s eyes were preity moist when he bid me good oye, for you and he were going to a logging bee at Mcâ€" Gregor‘s. The tears coursed down mother‘s eyes as she kissed her baby good bye and we were off on that long walk to Dundas. On Moffat‘s hill I took a last look at my home, that never was my bhome again. In three days we reached Flamboro, where Adam was working, and we had walked svery foot of the way. In due time I was on board the stage in Hamilton tor London where we arâ€" rived next morning. then the stage to St Thomas, and a walk of 7 miles brought me to New Sarum. Shortly after that you and l were found gathering stones from the neighboring farms to build the Durâ€" bham Fonndrg; Later we were quarâ€" rvying at the Saugeen flat stones to be used as binders tor the round ones. My first and only experience in quarâ€" ryingâ€"you had the oxen and I had a baulky span of horses. Do you reâ€" member hitching the chain round my horses‘ neck and the oxen at the other end, and how for a long time the rattle of a chain would make that horse Xull ? Summerâ€"slipped into fall and the foundry was almost comâ€" pleted when suddenly there was a crash, and the end of the foundry had tallen out and downr. It was a dark evening, but it was a darker night in Adam‘s house for we did not know the extent of the damages or how it was going to be repaired. I waited and worked, drew bricks ‘m;h’. tavern over an endless y and saw the foundry comâ€" My Dear Bob. I was disappointed in opening your leter vesterday to find the " Durham Chronicle Special‘‘ instead of one of your breesy letters. _ Let me say right here I did not recieve any letâ€" ter at St. John, N. B. and I wish you to repeat it and send to me herefor I want to hear from you. Next to a letter you could not have sent me anything that has given ime more pleasure than the Traae Edition of Durham. â€" First, let me say it is a credit to the pnbli»hex('i in its mat.t;lar, arrangement, cuts and typography, and should do your town a lgt of g‘())od. Durham has grown much since I last saw it. I had forgotten that you bad avything in the manufactures but the Cement and that is much larger than I supposed. I am glad to see that the Cochranes are stiil represented in the municipal and business interests. Miss Cochrane in the implement line.

You will remember that I was ten years of age and all agree I was mighty small at that. I do not remember any house in Durâ€" bam but Hunter‘s. I think it was known as the Saugeen Reservation. It was all woods to the top of the hill. Yon know I was driver, and where it was necessary to take *" Buck and Last nigbt when I finished reading the Review, Ifell into a meditative vein and my memory carried me back over a long period of time ; and I remembered that with the possible exception of your brotherâ€"inâ€"law, and uny of Archibald Hunter‘s family that may be living, there is no one aâ€" live who knew Durham beiore I did, and oh! what memories it calls up.
