MI response. will be passed along to the Clinton TOwn Council
Do you remember?
By JABEZ RANDS
(As part of Clinton's upcoming Centennial next year,
Jabez Rands of Clinton is writing a weekly column about the
history of the town.)
Do you remember when a person could get the good things
for very little money?
The fire bell rang on Februa'ry3rd, 1902 at 8 o'clock in the
evening, but it was not calling the firemen to put out a fire.
It was instead, calling all the Nemen mil town Councillors
to an oyster supper at McLennant Restaurant, and they did
not want any councillor or fireman to miss the supper,
It was a, little social gathering for the councillors and the
firemen to partake of a good meal and talk over one
another's ideas or discuss old times.
The supper was put on by the firemen and the total bill
came to the large sum of $7. This was pretty cheap con-
sidering that probably 24 or 25 men sat down to the supper.
The McLennan Restaurant was in the building now oc-
cupied by Ray and Shirrs Grocery Store on Victoria Street.
