Edward Nadiger started as an apprentice harness maker with Mike Fenn, January 6, 1902 in the building now occupied by Dr. V. Gulens. He recently sold his shop to. Dashwood area farmer Garnet Willert, who will remodel it into living quarters. Mr. Nadiger went into business for himself in 1904 and built his own shop in 1913. Sets of harness were made right from scratch from rolls of hides, The veteran harness maker recalls he charged $28 for a complete backbend team harness in 1920, A set of collars were thrown in with the harness. One of the last sets he made was a special double team har- ness in the late 1950's that sold for $250. To stay in business in the early days, a harness maker needed to be a shrewd trader. He quite often took wood and feed in trade for harness. The wood would be sold around town while the feed was for a cow or two and a few pigs that were owned by the harness maker, The Dashwood veteran also doubled as an insurance agent and was honored in 1963 for 50 years service with the Economical and Waterloo in- surance companies. He also served as Dashwood police village trustee for more than 25 years. Most of the harness making Mr. & Mrs. John Gillespie, Toronto visited on the weekend with Mr. & Mrs. Wm, McCann.
