The 70th anniversary of
Tieman's Hardware and Fur-
niture store in Dashwood is being
celebrated this month with a
gigantic store wide sale which
continues until Saturday, March
19T
he business was established
on February 2, 1907 by the late
David Tiernan. His son Mervyn
joined the firm in 1924 when he
finished high school in Exeter at
the age of 18 and still operates the
business.
Tieman's hardware business
began in the west end of the
Hartleib block at the north-west
side of main intersection in the
police village of Dashwood. Four
years ago the hardware and
furniture portions of the business
were joined together in the same
building,
In 1924 Tieman's took over the
furniture store business from the
late Peter Mclsaac.
The present building which is
located on the north side of Main
street, east of the main corner
was built in 1911 and until the
Tieman's took over in 1924 was
used by Peter McIsaac as a
telephone office.
For 65 years Tieman's were
one of the top coal dealers in the
south part of Huron. Mervyn
Tiernan said this week, "Dad sold
his first ton of coal at $10. Now it's
about $83 a ton. We sold our last
about five years ago and it was
$40 then."
The vehicle used for delivery
for coal and other hardware
merchandise from 1917 to 1939
was a Model T Ford purchased
from Milo Snell of Exeter in 1917
for $513.
Tieman's was the first firm in
Dashwood to sell gasoline. The
original pumps were of the
"blind" variety where the
operator pumped up one gallon at
a time.
Provincial regulations in the
late 1940's which stated gasoline
pumps must be at least eight feet
back from the road line forced
Tieman's to eliminate the gas
business.
Mervyn Tieman reminisced,
"The cheapest I remember
gasoline to be was 19 cents and
coal oil at 15 cents per gallon."
He continued, "In the old days
very little money changed hands
for hardware and our other
commodities. Farmers would
bring in eggs, butter and wood for
trading purposes.:'
Other popular items available.
at Tieman's in the earlier days
were cement, cedar posts, farm
fencing, wood stoves, cross cut
saws, etc.
When David Tieman first
opened his hardware store in
1907, the business was open from
7 a.m. to 11 p.m. six days a week.
In the late '20's the evening hours
were cut back to Tuesday,
Thursday and Saturday and
gradually reduced to the present
time when the only evening hours
