Mr Brown was easily the best known man in Egremont. For many years he was a buyer of farm stock of all descriptions. In this business be was remarkably successful, and won the confidenee of the people in a remarkâ€" able way. â€" Rarely, it ever, did anyone have trouble in dealing with Mr Brown. For a number of years back it has been a common practice with farmers to bring their stock to Holâ€" stein, before being sold, trusting im plicitly that he would buy them a fair prices, which they never question ed, owing to their faith in his.integ" rity. Mr Browo farmed extensively for many years a imile or two not th of the village, but a number of years ago bought the fine far of the late Thos,.

THURSDAY, APRIL 15, 1915 In endeayoring to give some kind of a historical sketch since twelye months ago, we are afraid that we will be only making a repeution in part of what was said one year ago. Howâ€" ever, we will try and avoid as much asâ€" possible of making a repetition of what was said then. Although it seeme short since 12 months, yet how many changes have taken place since ! More than can be enumerated. Io passing along I find the old farms pretty much the same as one year ago. In many inâ€" stances the old boulders wers peeping through the snow to show us that vhe proprietors had not disturbed their alaces of abode since we passed that way before and urging us to be leniâ€" ent with the owners, as there were more brother stones to be found on the old farms than would make a good regiment to face the Germans. The Saugeen River is running mg‘ zag through to Darham, irrespective of payingâ€" any attention to the comâ€" plaints made by those suffering from the time it expands iself to an enorâ€" mous size generally at this season of the year, but fortunately the year 1915 by all appearance, 18 going to be an exception for low waier mark in our rivers. The old cedars are in many inszances overbanging over the waters of the several rivers, They may net be as large as the cedars of Lebanon,. yet some of them are of a good size. ‘The old landmarks that showed the length and width of the farms, placed by the surveyors over 60 years ago, are all pretiy well decayed from the effects of the many years they have seen since being placed by the original surveyors of the then wild forest. The old pioneer who landed and placed his mark on some of these old farms or lots of long ago have gone to their resting places many years ago and only to be seen of them the marks of where their remains are laid in the different resting places of the dead throughout the township, .The old tashioned houses. of 50 or 60 years ago are in many instances replaced by fine brick restdences, showing that alâ€" though Glenelg.kad.the name of beâ€" ing as the Highland maid of ling ago called it +** Gleneilg nan clach " or stony Glenelg.

The Councils of Ontario have the option of sending out an Assessor in the summer or rather in the fall after harvest time, The time it is done now is an unreasonable time, for the snow generally is at its depth in Febâ€" ruary and March, although 1915 was an exceptional one for wavelling.
