We regularly pick up editions of
the Toronto Star, particularly on the
weekends. I confess to not ever
reading the whole paper – just a
quick look for the articles that hold
some interest for me.
However, the puzzles are what I
appreciate. Crosswords interest me,
but seldom am I able to complete
them. But I try.
The Star carries a crossword
puzzle in the Saturday issue titled
the “Colossal Canada Crossword”. It
is a good test of Canadian geography
and sometimes your French.
Saturday’s puzzle offered the clue,
“historic town in Huron County with
a beautiful clock tower”. Often we
wonder at the expense of keeping
these landmarks in repair but
everyone working on that puzzle
learned a fact about Seaforth. One
other time the question was the site
of the world’s largest salt mine. And
another one asked for the location of
the secret radar training town of
World War II.
Those answers I knew! Good to
know our little piece of the country
is not forgotten.
Sunday’s edition of the Star
carried a story about a stolen toilet.
The writer, Kaly Soto, of the New
York Times had some very humorous
comments to make about this fully
operational gold toilet worth many
millions. Seems there was always a
lineup to experience the flush!
The 18-karat solid gold toilet
named “America” was part of a
collection of works by Maurizio
Cattelan. The toilet was stolen from
the exhibit at Blenheim Palace,
birthplace and family home of
Winston Churchill. Made in the
Kohler style, the toilet was produced
in a foundry in Florence. (The
Italians do love their excesses!)
Although a thief has been arrested
the toilet has not been recovered!
Members of Londesborough
United Church will join in worship
with Knox United Auburn on
Sunday, Sept. 22 at the Ball’s Chapel
on the Baseline Road at 10:30 a.m.
Londesborough United will be
initiating a food drive for the local
food bank until Thanksgiving.
Donations can be placed in the
baskets in the entrance at the church.
On Wednesday evening, Sept. 18,
six Londesborough Lions Club
members received Ontario Volunteer
Service Awards for their many years
of service to our community and the
wider Lions Club Association. The
ceremony was held in Kincardine.
Recipients from the local club
were: Don Allen for 15 years, Carl
Nesbitt for 40 years, Ron Nesbitt for
35 years, John Hoggart for 30 years,
Sam Doherty for 25 years and Don
MacGregor for 35 years of service.
Congratulations and thank you,
Lions!
Many readers are aware that the
month of August was a sad one for
our little community.
One of our longtime residents,
Robert (Bob) Reid, passed away at
Huronview on Aug. 23. Bob and
Edna came to the village with their
young family in the mid-1960s and
lived in the former Presbyterian
Church manse, the last house to the
north at the east end of the village.
A number of years later the couple
erected their log home on London
Road.
Bob’s early working years were
spent with George Radford
Construction of Blyth as a shop
mechanic and grader driver. Then
Bob was a foreman for Ontario Hydro
out of the London Department until
his retirement. Villagers will recall
that Bob liked to just get in his truck
and tour the area. The couple had
horses in a pasture behind the house
for a few years to watch and care for.
Bob enjoyed good health for much
of his retirement but about a year
ago he made a move to Huronview.
The Reid immediate family held a
gathering at Edna’s home on the
Sunday following Bob’s passing to
find comfort together for their loss.
Interment will take place at a later
date.
