DUNCAN fAcTAVISH The Eighteen Mile River followed, along the•northside of •the hill in a westerly direction, then turned sharply to the south, crossed over ' the concession, proceeded' westward a few tOds and•then back to the••north side of the road. This was in the days before the concess- ion road had been opened up. This left ,a narrow neck 'of lancithrougif which access could' be'gained to the old homestead but necessitated • building two •bridgefa few rods- . .• apart. • .• • _ • The ninniCipal fathers were quick t6 note this and without consulting anyone, dug a narrow Cut ' through this neck on my grandfather7s prop 0; the river and a bridge to build between Itirpand• l• the road when it was finally opened up. -othing' was thought of the act for .some timeas the early settlers'. idthe trailthat ranat the baCk, of the farms.

Each rested on abutment; of large cedarsplaced behindthe trees that lined the bank andhgh enough from the riverbed, to sayd the bridge in times of high. water. Stones were piled around the, bank to prevent er.Osion and approaches were filled with gravel: The Covering consisted of three inch hemlock plank, sawn from hemlocks •that were quite, plentiful' in thoedays. The writer renembers quite well when a Seeond.cvering replaced the or- iginal one, helpingdrive six inch spike into theplank; For half a century it served the McTavish '• family and als6 bore evidence Of an injustice done an early settler in a day when many things were overlooked that in our day would call for redress of one kind Or another. , Noone haslivedOn that farm since1919. The riverbed hischang• ed its course and very little water flows that way.
