proclamation
By ' order1; of Reeve W. B. Ander
son. next Monday. August 3rd. will
be observed •»., * civic holiday for
the village of Lucknow, when AH
citizens are required to govern them
selves accordingly.. . .
leading establishments at that time*
when this village had a population
of 1500 persons and was' referred to
in the article as “a thriving place
of go-ahead citizens”.
The article briefly reviewed the
naming of the village, making refer
ence, to Eli Stauffer, of whom little
is known and .who was. probably the
first white man to set foot here. It
goes oh to tell of James Somerville’s
arrival in the spring of 1858. the lay
ing out of the land , into village lots
and, the sale of these lots that fall
which was cause for a celebration
in the formi of setting off gun powder
placed in auger holes in 21 large
trees# ■ *
In the winter of that year’ Mr.
Malcolm Campbell opened Lucknow’s
first store and was about the same
time appointed first postmaster of
the village. The village grew and
prospered and was incorporated in
187& ■ : •• • , , ■
Fifteen years later the population
was 1500. By that timer there were
numerous thriving industries and a
fire protection system had been in
stalled at a cost of $1’1,000.! with .a
central pumping station in charge bf
Mr. Douglas. The Sentinel was then
edited’by Mr. James Byran, who was
warden of Brace at the time.
The village did not lack for fra
ternal societies. Among these were
the Masons, Oddfellows, Orangemen,
Workmen. Sons of Scotland. Good
Templars. Catholic M. B. Associa
tion and Foresters. Brief accounts
are .,given of the building ; of the
Methodist and Presbyterian churches,
tile latter at a cost of] $12,000.
The annual games of the Caledon
ian Society were said , to be of world
wide fame, and the curfing and lac
rosse clubs were gaining many
laurels. A picture of the. youthful
lacrosse team of that time included
the following: Jack Armstrong. Mal
colm Campbell, Jimmie Yule. Bill
■ Hornell. Jim Grundy, Daye Thomp
son, John Jewitt, Bill Weir. Frank
Gordon. Tim Kirk. Dave Lawrence,
G. Johnston and Jack Hornell. -Offi
cers of the dub were “Sandy” Camp
bell. Hugh Morrison and D. R. Mc
Intosh.
Sketches of the following citizens
appear: Jas. Byran, Malcolm Camp
bell, James Somerville, Mitchell
Bros.. J. G. Murdoch. D, C. Taylor,
J. W. Armstrong, Wm. Connell.
Robert Hughes, G. W. Berry, A. B.
Congram, A. S. Campbell and D.
Murchison.
There is a picture of the “Old
Town Hall* built during the reeve-
<ship of Mr. Dan Campbell. Other
| buildings pictured are D. C. Taylor’s
j“stoves and tinware” store; The Cain
/House built by T. F. Cain and open-
iedin 1892; the Whitley house across
the street; and. the Campbell Block?
I The Woollen Mills, one of the village
industries is shown. It was establish
ed in 4866Aby Robert Lees & George

ness. Mr. Douglas died in 1885 and
Mr. Lees assumed control.
The public school is another far
I teresting illustration, that shows the
school and the senior pupils of that
date, getting their picture ' “took”.
Mr. Yule was then principal and with
three assistants had charge of 257
pupils* The school was built in 1878
at a cost of $11,000.

DROUGHT LAST WEEK
Last ; Wednesday evening and
Thursday, brought welcome rain/
when about an inch and a quarter of
moisture fell in about twenty-four
hours, to end. in no uncertain man-
ner. a drought of seven weeks.
Rain fell early Wednesday even
ing and continued during, the night
to an amount. officially measuring
over-three quarters of an inch.
Crops,/late crops particularly, par
ched gardens, lawns and pastures
were quick to respond to this mois
ture tonic and in an amazingly
short time took on a much improve^
appearance. At supper time on
Thursday, a cloudburst that appar
ently was not general, broke here
and in the space "of a few minutes.
.37 of an ingh, of rain fell. . Since
then the weather has been .'quite
pleasant, moderately warm during
the day and cool in the evenings and
the harvest prospects are generally,
much brighter thmi they were a week

| Passengers gather in the lounge room
Some play cards—others read a good
, book. Many stroll about the deck as
, it is quite warm to-night. Have been
asked to serve on a committee to ar
range deck games. The committee
decides to have tournaments of shu
ffleboard. deck tennis and ping-pong.
Mon. July 6th.
We are now out pf the straits with,
no evidence of land. The broad, briny
ocean gives one a sense of sublimity.
The tournaments of deck tennis, shu-
fflleboard, and pihg-ping are now un
der way. One of the charms of an
ocean' voyage is the way people frat-
ternize. I have met peope from Ott
awa. Toronto. Detroit. Shanghai, In
dia. France." I attended Queen’s Un
iversity with one passenger and Qu-
elph Agric. College with another.
Towards evening we feel a slight
roll and I hear a few of our number
have been overcome with mal de mer.
It o-night. However, it is
pleasant in the lounge where people
chat, play cards or dance, as suits
their inclination. The orchestra
plays popluar melodies and the young
people enjoy dancing to the rhythmic
music. Skies are duller to-night and
I think the moon and stars have de
cided to take a holiday. We can see
a few whitecaps and the roll is slight
ly more evident.
Tues. July 7th. *
This "is a frray day. The clouds •
overhead together with the slight
roll suggest the sea. has its severer
moods as well as the pleasant. We
note there are a few empty seats in
the dining room to-day. As we dance
to-night the roll is quite Noticeable.
I rather enjoy it myself but others
have not fared so well.
Wed. July 8th.
It is much brighter, and warmer
this morning* The bright sun neces
sitates wearing our sun glasses. The
sea has a much more friendJy aspect
to-day. The finals for shuffleboard
and deck tennis are being played off. <
Much interest is nvinced especially
in the shuffleboardi/'Many sit out in

I see some familiar faces aboard a-

his wife*
, The scenic waterway of the St,

I eye. Towards 9.30 ' p.m. we sight

past is recalled, and a feeling of awe
I steals over one as the rugged cliffs of
! Quebec are sharply outlined against
the sky by rows of elective lights.

but also whets' one’s. appetite. For

This is the Colonel’s twenty first time
to cross the Atlantic, and he is enjoy
ing the trip with all the exhilaration
of a tenderfoot.
The evening is delightful on board.
The Streaks of . the. setting sun against
the sky—the calm 6f a velvety sea—
and the tang of sea air gives one a
sense of exhilaration and complete re^
laxation. Folks on board are joining
in the games , of shuffleboard, deck
tennis and ping pong. Others make
merry as they dance to the strains of
lovely music.. What could be more
delightful—thh tints of a- dying sun
against the sky—the placid sea—and
pleasant strains of music wafting
over the water. I dance for an hour
