A Short Iiistory of tiullett

• Mau naturally: desires the beautiful.
There are certana line emotions in al-
ITIOSt every man which make hinf long
'for that which has a beautiful appear-
ance, and could. we have visited the
township. of Hullett three quarters of
a century ago, wewould now be able
to have some idea why oarprogenitors
-settled there.- '
Hallett, with the exception of °Mor-
ris, is the only township not extend-
ing its boundaries to those of thecoun-
ty. It is butted on the north-east by
East Wawanosh and Morris; on the
south-west by Tuckeremith, and on
the west by the Township of Goderich,
from which it is separatedby the' •base
line" extension of the Louden Road,
running due north to Aulsurn: • It con,
tainsin the neighborhoo1of53 550acres;
The surfece varies from quite level
to gently undulating, while the quality
of the soil is equal on the' average to
that of the best, though many parts
have a very cold bottom toed require
rnuchdramage. For teeny years much
of the finest land remeinee unsettled,.
especially along whates now ealled the
Fluron road, This was probably • due
to the fact that the country, which is
comparatively low, did not present a
very inviting aspect to the inexperiere
ced land -seeker from the old sod, who
preferred to "chop out" for himself a
faeraWhere he could work dry shed,
The first township council meeting
Was held atOlinton, on the 3rd of Jan.
1848, The financial statement for that
year shows the sum of 259 5 ed to lave
been received from the District Trea
urer, and the following extract shows'
how tbe clerks were peed: -january,.
1819, -To 2% on ge Oarad, Clerks fees,
and this stateinente was endorsed by '
the then District Auditors at Goderich:
Financially-, the affairs of the 0mi:i-
s:hip have been in. a very satisfactor

villages.in the township, oneof the
chiefis Londesbore; on the Clinton and
Wingham road. •The first settler here

was R. Wright, .who Iodated 'lot 26,
eon. 10, and -built a, log house on the
corner where the hotel now stands.
But the nail Who laid' nut the Village
and grieti it its name was 'Thos. Hag -

The section on each side of the road
between Clinton and Londesboro was,
with the exception of some places along
the Huron .Roitcl, the tit st settled ita the
township. Almost the first settled was
lot 26 and 27 con. 7, and for years that
elatee was the "Travellers Rest," It
was. the place most enquired of by
.settlers on arrival at eitattenbury's
corners"now Can torectilled after Lieut.
Gen. Lord Clinton. Ab that time Clin-

store,•and some half dozen log houses.

borhood being E. Elkins, who subse-
quelitly laid out thevillage of Manches-
ter, better. known as Auburn..
This pretty little village, Which is
somewhat larger than Londgeboro, is
situated in each of the three townships,
East and West Wawanosh and Hallett.
. At present the nearest station is Blyth
but when the Guelple-God,erich road,
noiv in course of conernctien, is coin-
pleted, Auburn will have a station.
The village contains two geeeral stores

The only.other village of any impor-

ern part of the township, and -received
its original Tame from Raphael Steph-

OUR LADY OF THE SNOWS, -
An eye opener to the average English-
man will be a photograph taken by
Mr. Henry on january 27t1i. It is no-
torious that on that day the Ilowlitig
Club met on the greet, astel played e
good game of bowls, the grass lbeing in
first-class condition,' After which they
adjourned to the ice and curled; the
lee also being good. Such at thing is
unprecedented, has never been known
before, aud nay never be seen again,
Mr. Henry is to beeongratulated on
securing a splendid view of each scene.
We hear it is Mr. Henry's intention to
have these two views mounted suitably
on one card, with a proper inscription,
suld. framed. In this way they Will be
preserved, and, we wont(' think,. will
be eagerly bought as something unique,
What Will they any tow about the
climate of Ontat in in dear old England?
It is intended to publish them in the
London illustrated jouinals, and Clin-
ton will thus be made somewhat wide-
ly known,
