she said the aim of the Huron
:So'ci'ety should be to preserve
and publicize the history of the
counity and added the chief

Turns Clock BUck
Through a Magical web of
Words woven by Edward Jen-
kins, Ii,R 3 Clinton, the audience
was thrust backwards through
time 150 years.
The eloquent and thoroughly
competent Mr. Jenkins named
25 pioneers, who settled in the
Hohnesville district about 1815
and invited Society niernberg to
select the families 'of particular
interest to them. Mr. Jenkins'
promised to go into detail about
each one.
Names such as Proctor, Dis-
ney, • Lindsay, Crich, Cooper,
Rattenbury, GibbingS, Cook, and
}Writes brought society mem-
bera to their feet to Make in-
quiries. Many of those present
were direct descendants of the
old timers mentioned by Mr.
jtenlaria,
Pioneer Robert Proctor for
instance had puchased 171 acres
Of land• from. the Cabot Corn-
pany and after 15 years had
cleared 56 acres of it.
The Proctors were Irish and
the family included six persons.
The word to the pioneers
about the new Canadian fron-
tier was that farmers could ex-
pect 35 bushels of grain per
acre if they had" saved their
ashes and spread its high pot-
aSslium content on the land.
" The Proctors realized about
U 'bushels to the acre from
their early crops. They grew 11
acres of wheat, 6 acres of oats
and one-quarter acre of pota-
toes.
In addition they had 12 tom
of hay, 200 lbs. of maple sugar,
30 lbs. of wool and sold 220 lbs.
of butter arid three barrels of
salted beef or pork. The Proc-
tor's stock consisted of eight
cattle, two horses, ten sheep
and six hogs.
A Question Raised
Chairman Bert Gibbings, RR
4 Clinton, asked what the 'Soc-
iety could do to preserve the
records of the one-room elemen-
tary schools in the district that
were now being closed to make
way for modern-day central
schools.
He said he believed these rec-
ords should be kept and indica-
ted they would provide a
wealth of vital information of
use to the Society.
Mrs. Robert Simpson, Hen-
gall, thanked those who had
used their influence go that the
Society could use the Cafeteria
"We hope to be able to re-
pity Somata* With auth-
entic records for Use by the
students," she said.
