Wade, until recently chairman of the Foun- dation, Presented a cheque for $7,000 to Mrs. John Baker, seeretazy-treasurer of the Van Egmond Foundation. The handing over ceremony took place on the tree shaded lawn of the historic two storey brick residence in Egmondville overlooking the Hayfield River. The occasion marked the kick off of a fund raising campaign to raise additional funds with which to complete payment of the house and to carry out needed renovations and restoration work, The Heritage Foundation has promised that if their original grant can be matched through public donations a second $7,000 award will be made to the local group. The home was purchased by the Van Egmond Foundation last spring from Mrs. Florence Smith of Seaforth. Both the $500 option to buy and $14,000 purchase price was raised through bank loans. Restoration costs of the brick structure, built in 1847 by Con- stant Van Egmond, son of Col. Anthony Van Egmond, have been estimated by the Heritage Foundation following a study of the house about a year ago, at $21,470. This would provide for restoration work to be carried out over a period of time. One condition in the second grant from the Ontario Heritage Foundation is that they approve the local organization's plans to restore the structure. Van Egmond Foundation chairman James Doig, was in charge of the proceedings and introduced members of the Foundation Board. They are Mrs. John Baker, sec. treas., J.R. Spittal, Rev. J.C.

Others who took part in the ceremony were Reeve Elgin Thompson of Tqckersinith, Mayor Frank Sills of Seaforth, Robert E, McKinley, Huron MP, Reeve John Flannery representing the warden, of Huron and A.Y, McLean who introduced Mr. Wade. During the program Mr, Doig introduced members of the Van Egmond family, Miss Jane Car- dno who had written an essay on the Van Egmond,home-and Mrs, Charlie Thomas, represen- ting her husband at the ceremony. Ironically, although Constant Van Egmond built the house and is acknowledged as the creator of Egmondville, his name and achievements are almost completely over- shadowed by the exploits of his father. After joining Napoleon's army at 18, Van Egmond took part in the emperor's Moscow campaign. After Napoleon's defeat and escape later from Alba, the colonel fought against him at Waterloo. With little excitement left in Europe after the 1820's he emigrated to Pennsylvania and finally to Upper Canada, where he became involved with the Canada Company. After playing a major role in blazing a new road from Guelph to Goderich, Van Egmond built and operated a tavern four Miles west of what is now Seaforth. Within 20 months he had cleared nearly 100 acres of land and in 1829 harvested the first crop of wheat ever grown in the Huron Tract. Col. Van Egmond became in- terested in William Lyor: Mackenzie's struggle against the Family Compact, running un- successfully after losing in an 1835 election in Huron as a reform candidate. Asked to be Mackenzie's military commander in the rebellion, Van Egmond rode to Montgomery's Tavern, arriving just after the rebels were routed by the British. He was arrested, tried for treason and died from pneumonia in York jail Dec. 30, 1837. The body was brought back to the Van Egmond farm near Seaforth and afterwards to a cemetery just west of the present home in Egmondville.
