Cli ►toit News -Record The 'Home Paper With the Weiss 06 Albert Street Clinton United States in the early 1800s. Mr. and Mrs. Silas, Andrews, Frank's grandparents, came to Clinton in 1865 from An- d'rewsvilie, near Smith Falls. They bought almost 200 acres from the Shipley family, and as Frank says, "They probably wouldn't have gotten it, if it hadn't been for the Fenian raids. William Shipley (great grandfather of George Shipley, RR 4, Clinton) was worried that the Fenians would get his land, and was glad to sell it." "And that was a unique th- ing," reports Frank. "The price was $8,500, and grandfather paid it all in silver dollars, Huge cartwheel things they were. Tom Cottle, who was in the greenhouse business then, stood guard over the suitcases in which the silver dollars were for.two days and nights, with a shotgun". The Andrews land atthat time stretched right to the pr- esent Royal Bank corner. As years went by, some land was sold, and the town was built on it, More land was bought, however, and now there are still about 175 acres left. Mr. Andrews is continuing to sell lots. Frank's father was Homer Andrews. Frank went overseas in World War I with the 161st Huron Battalion. When he ,e' home he entered part- hiefehip with Gordon Howes, and built the chopping rnil.l on Huron Street. After a year Fr- ank took over and operated it alone, selling out to Murdock Bros. in 1928. They later sold to Canada Packers Ltd. Mr. Andrews was a• pioneer commercial grower of straw- berries, and ,harvested his 50th crop this past summer, also setting out new plants for next season. The celebrating couple re- ceived a great many card's of congratulation and good will from Canada, England, the Un- ited States, and Hong Kong. Included was a letter from Pr- ime Minister John Diefenbaker, Ottawa; from Elston Cardiff, MP for Huron, Brussels; a telegram from John Roberts, premier of Ontario, Toronto and a cablegram from Mr. and Mrs. Willis Cooper, England. Also treasured is a framed scroll from the Province of On- tario, delivered in person by Charles S. MacNaughton, MLA for Huron, Exeter, who attend- ed the celebrations with Mrs. MacNaughton. 54 Percent of Voters Go To Polls Monday (Continued from page one) with support from 561 people, this year dropped only 86 votes, but found himself the seventh man in a race which could have only six winners, Norman Livermore, first en- tered municipal work in 1954, with an •acclamation to coun- cil, and since then has lost One election, (for 1955 council): has received two more accla- mations .and has won five elec- tione, including the one this week.
