delivered ° twins fol. a total of five
calves in a little over ten months.
She had also given birth to two
single calves previously. All three
of the triplets were healthy and
expected to live.

An interesting article was carried
in the Sentinel as Wm. Baillie
recalled the naming of St. Helens.
The article read in part: "Wm.
Baillie of Goderich, the oldest J. P.
in the County of Huron, celebrated
his 84th birthday. His father was
the first settler in the portion of
Waw:nosh Township which was
later called West , Wawanosh. The
municipal history of the township
began in 1852, the year of Wm,
Baillie's birth. St. Helens he
remembered as the "capital" of
the township. It was built along the
line between the 10th and 11th
concessions on lots 18 and 19 and
was laid out in 1857 by a
government engineer at the re-
quest of William Gordon and Henry
Mathers, the former of whom
named it after his wife, Helen",
and so the hamlet received the
name St. Helens.
