Century of tradition ends A century of tradition ended last Satuday as the owners of Anderson Hardware Store in Belgrave retir ed. An antique and furniture store takes it place. One of the oldest stores in Belgrave, the hardware was built sometime between 1860 and 1880, according to the Morris township history book. Ross Anderson pur chased it in 1950, and his wife Barbara says, they have never modernized it, maintaining the tradition of the old-time hardware store. The first deed that the Ander sons have, claims the store was sold by the original owner, William Duncan in 1898 to Robert C. Gallagher, who sold it in 1904 to James B. Nichol. Three years later the business was purchased from Mr. Nichol by Luther J. Williams who owned it until 1914. At that time it was bought by James McCallum, who sold it in 1917 to his brother, Duncan. Mrs. Ander son said that she and her husband have found several things in the building with McCallum Brothers on it, suggesting that they worked together. After that the Andersons have no accurate record, but Mrs. Ander son said they do know that John A. Geddes bought the business in the early 1920’s when she and her husband were children growing up in the hamlet. Mr. Geddes operated the busi ness right through until 1946 at which time it was purchased by Bob McKenzie, who kept it four years before selling to Ross Ander son “stock and all’’, according to his wife. The store, she says, was fully of very old items that have PRICES! imummimA Z" been sitting over the years and the couple were kept very busy last week clearing it out in preparation for the weekend auction. The building has been purchased by Donald and Beth Sutton of Kemptville and the Andersons are anticipating retirement in their new Belgrave home.
