Following the regular business, E. A. Oddleifson presented a paper on "Electricity in Bayfield". Bayfield had electricity as early as the late 1800s, he said. About this time, Mr. "Skip" Donaldson operated a sawmill on the Bayfield River where he installed a dynamo to generate this electricity. He contracted with the village to provide power for a number of streetlights and also installed lights in a few private homes. Messrs. William and Jack Jowett bought the electric system and operated it for several years. The dynamo, which was operated by A. Patterson, was shut down at or near midnight and there were no more lights until the next night. The mill which supplied the steam to operate the dynamo was owned and operated by William Jowett and William WASH ALL DONE IN A JIFFY! Just leave the laundry to us!

One night it caught fire and burned to the ground, Tliis spelled finis pe to the private enterprise of supplying electricity to the Village of Bayfield. Several attempts were made by local People to have Ontario Hydro extend their line in the village in 1901. However, costs were found to be so high that no action was taken. At a public meeting in Bayfield Town Hall in 1923, a sufficient number of signatures was obtained to get hydro for street lighting. Further investigation into the cost of owning and operating a local hydro system was made and found to be prohibitive. This .proved to be the beginning of a consideration for the• disincorporation of the village to police village status which actually took place in 1927. Ontario Hydro policy at this time was to consider police villages as rural communities. As such, they had the advantage of special grants and a low maximum service charge. A line was built from Clinton and streetlights and power supplied to the village in 1928 with the township guaranteeing the cost. Due to the increased number of customers, the line from Clinton became overloaded and in 1952 property on the Brucefield road was purchased by the Ontario Hydro and a • distribution station was erected to supply Bayfield and the surrounding townships. In 1954 and 1955 a two-year programme of rebuilding lines in Bayfield was carried out at a cost of $40,000. Growth has been steady and several increases have since been made to the size of the station. Hostesses for the evening were Mrs. R. Blair and Mrs. C. Bell.
