Lot Six
Varner Nixon, "Edward Henry_and' Thomas Roney' were
the first three who .owned the South 50 -of Lot 6, Every per
iod has its :own peculiar: type of accidents. After - "Ned".'
Henry; moved to Eliza Township, he delivered a load of wood
one fall day -to some one -in Mitchell, and toward' evening he
started on his homeward journey, singing • "Only One More
River To Cross," as his team 'jogged along the Loganroad.
Suddenly, they dashed down a side street,, and before they
came to a halt they had. plunged into:the mall pond., Stark
brotlers,:.who "Were nearby,' jumped ;into ` their, . boat and
rescued Ned offthe woodrack, which had beeozne detached
from the wagon, and was:. floating on..the..ri"ver"..._The..borses-
were drowned
Thomas Roney, :the: next owner, when working: in. ,the
Mitchell foundry, 'poured _hot metal into a :mould which had
water in it,' and the splash: caused by. the ;explosion. struck'
his eyes andpractically blinded" him for life
Tom Roney's brother,. Henry' took over' this 50acres and
also bought from the Canada. Coimpany some time. later;- 25
acres of the North. 50.. From" the' finite George Hurlburt took
up the other 25,_ in'`1885,••it has: been connected ,with Lot, 6,
Concession1:: Henry—,Roney,, in 1907, after the marriage of
his "soil Albert, moved to' Mitchell: '• 'Albert . married Lydia
Baker; from' Fullerton, and their wedding Was a .ten -mile.
drive by' horse and buggy in the. rain to their home '.''on this
lot. ' They still live -here; but the: farm is now managed. -by
their son, Charles, and his wife, the former Lois Williams.
No` one ,has ,ever' lived,on Lot 7 'David Oughten owned
the West 50 `from X1854,-:nd his family after his death •
1866 until George"'Rock "bought_ it 'around 1878, In,the early
80's, Rock also., bought. the East:..56" from :the :!Canada" Com-
pany, Since then':the owners of this Jot have:been t e same
as tloe of
;Lot' 7, =.Concession 1: While some of .these lots
were s.-wamps_an the=ear1Y,da, _s., today_:itis haJr-d to find more-

The .well -kept up-to=datebuildings and the level well -tilled
fields; with -their bointif u1 -c -r -ops,- dr-avv-ihe•�attentaan of • a11-

Because 'of this :swampy land: the building of roads 'hero°
in the early days'was More 'or lesa of a'problem. In the early
50's it was 'felt the road - would have to 'be detoured around,
this 'swamp: • However,' with much perseverence 'on the part
of the;workers, long:str_etches of corduroy were', laid: along the.
concession, and this road today still has that corduroy fount.
dation:. The ;farmers, with •theiroxen, " rolled''` the logs . into:
place where needed, 'working:fron .each' end till both gangs
met4. When' a `mile,.;of. this ;corduroy had been:: laid; but 'still
- had nocovering, the'; remains of "one' of'the early settlers was
carried' 'oyer the full length of it for burial in one of the
Mitchell graveyards, a good four miles away:

'escape; the Words that came' to .leis mind and ;comforted 'him
were: ` "Underneath ,are the everlasting arms". After John,;
