(continued from Page SIX)
Fairbalrn: Nor do you look it,
What can you tell us about Ray-
field 'In the early days?,
Stirling: A lot of things but
some I'd better not .repeat, We
used to have. 1.3 hotels here and.
it's been said that more business
of Stanley Township was trabs-
acted over a fingerlength of whis-
key at Pollock's Tavern than in
the council chaniber. We even had
hosne-made wine shown at the fair
at one time but I won't say who
made it beeause, Huron County
we dont discuss such things. Ser-
iously though, Bayfield had a big
industry. 50 years. ago . . it was
an apple evaporator and employed
30 or 40 people. It handled 300
bushels of apples a day and some
of its produce was shipped as far
away as Russia. We stili.have the
apples although the weather this
year hasn't helped (s"-inuch,
Fairbairn: I've read that anoth-
er good Scotsman was the first,
postinaster,in Bayfield?
Stirling: That wale- before, my
time bif his game was Donal
Fraser. I can remember well the
man who succeeded him, -James
Gairdner. He was a driving force'
in town affairs for 60 years. I've
also heard that before Bayfield
got a post office, George Jackson
walked to 'Sarnia three times a
week for the mail. That'squite a
walk, eyen'on the roads today—it's
about 80 miles so it must have
%kelt quite a man to do that.
here's the lady who is really res-
ponsible for this broadcast. „. It
Was Mrs. Colin Campbell who fn -
at thought thought the CRC might be in-
terested in the Bayfield Centen-
Mal Fair and' Mrs. Campbell her-
self is extremely interested in
history. Both your family and
your husband's 'were wrong the
first settlers in this partof the
country, Weren't they?
Ca.mpbell: Yes, Don. My great
grandparents were the Wallises
Who arrived here from England in
1834 and took up land just north
of Bayfield. There is still a Wal-
lis fanning that land. . They -came
to New York State and up the
Erie Canal to Lake Erie, along it
to Detroit and then up to G,oder-
ich. Mr. Wallis left his family
with a brother in New York State -
and came ahead to build a cabin
but Mrs. Wallis tired of waiting
his return and came on with. tne
family._ They had quite a trip be-
ing nearly shipwrecked on Lake
Huron but eventually 'reached God-
ertch and sent out 'a runner to
find Mr. Wallis, Needless to say,
e was surprised but happy and
after another journey down the
lake by boat . this time only
ten miles- they reached their new
home. My litisbendscame
to Canada in 1944 and 'settled first
near Ingersoll but later walked
from there to the Huron Tract and
took up land on the Bronson line.
So you see why- I'm interested in
the history of this part of the
country. . ifs all so very real to
me:
Fairbairn: And I suppose, the
Wallises and the Campbells have
always been keenly interested in'
the Bayfield Agricultural Societyl
Campbell: Oh; yes, and the
Snowden's who helped out when
Mr: Wallis suddenly died in 1841
and my immediate family, the
MacKenzies. And there are many
others I couldiriention whose,fam-
illeS- have been here as long as.,
the fair.
Vairbairns You're quite a man
yourself, Mr. Stirling, and it
wouldn't do to let you go without
giving the people of Ontario and
Quebec an. opportunity to hear
your 82 year old vocal chords in
one of your famous Scottish songs
. . how -about it folks? "
Stlrthig: -, -

much, Ikrri' Stirling. And now

Fairbsdrn: • Thank you, Mrs.
Campbell for joining us this morn-
ing but now- we must get along
and find out about the 100 year
old fair from the present president
and secretary. First, here's the
president,. Carl Houston.- How clict
it all be,gm, Mr. Houston?
Houston: In 1855 a. movement
was started in Stanley Township
to organize an Agricultural Soc-
iety; it took in part of Stanley
and part of Goderich Township
which is just across the river -from
Bayfield and meetings -were held
hotels in l3ayfield. Originally,
100. members were pledged at 125
each but when the society Was eventually organized in 1856 there
Were only 60 members who con-
tributed £15 each but that wag en-
ough to start the fair. Fifty years
later, the name was changed, to
the Bayfield Agricultural Society
to comply with the new provincial
act, •
Farhat -a: Most of the fairs
have been held in Bayffeld, /hough,
haven't they?
Houston: Yes. We have a rec-
ord of a spring and fall fair here
in 18,58, then it moved to Varna
for a few years hut it ,has been in
Bayfield ontinuouslyf since 1886.
There have been good years and
bad but thanks to -a gland group
of directors over the years we are
now holding out. 160th fair,
There's always been someone with
new enthusiasm and new ideas to
keep things going and..one of the
Moat faithful has been 3. B. Rath -

While also being a reeve of Gorier-

Fairbairn: I can understand . . .
he was the first person I met At
the fairgrounds—clearing away
an old fence to make room for
your new centennial gates. Thanks,
Mr. Houston, and best of weather
for your fair. We must hear from
another lady andone who works
hard for"the fair . .she's the sec-
retary, Mrs. Ahna Bassett. Have
you found anything of interest in
those old minute books, Mrs. Bas-
sett?
Bassett: Plenty, Don. You were
mentioning the price Baron de
Tuyll paid for land here originally
which, reminded me that the Sors.:,
iety first bought lots in l3ayfieldin
1886 and it cost them $240. The
show building was put up that
year also at a cost of $232.45. 13
more lots were added in 1891 for
$300 and in 1922 10 more at a cost
of $150 so until that time the Soc-
iety didn't need any tremendous
capdtal. We're growing again,
though. Since 1948 there's the brg
new building which is also an
arena and, en:nu:unity centre, a
new poultry house and two cattle
barns- mainly for the 4-11 Clubs
that have become a big feature of
our fair. .
Fafrbairri: What does your prize.
list total this year, Mrs.,. Bassett?
Bassett: It will be well over
$2,000 which is quite a bit for what
is really a one day fair. The- fruit
and vegetables, grain and ladies
displays will be in- and judged on
Wednesday but Thursday is the
big day when all the livestock
judging takes place, the official
opening by Mr. F. A. Lashley and.
the concert at night which in-
cludes a play on the early days
written by Lucy Woods, the Bay-
field correspondent of the Clinton
News -Record' your local week-
ly. -Which reminds me that -I read
an item about a motion presented
at esticiety meeting by her father,
Dr. Woods in 1913. It was un-
animously carried that wecexclude
all automobiles from our grounds
on fair day. -
Fairbairn: That's been amended
since 1913, Thank you Mrs. Bas-
sett. Next here's an old friend of
mine and of the Bayfield Fair, ti -it
gentleman who represents this dis-
trict in the provincial legislature,
Mr. Tom Pryde of Exeter.
