THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 17, 2001. From past to present. Recently Max Oldfield, owner of the hardware store in Brussels, had a special visitor to his store. Kathy Marini, of Etobicoke, is the granddaughter of Samuel Wilton, one-time owner of the store. Wilton also served as Master of St. John's Lodge 284 A.F. & A.M. in 1896. Marini, with her husband Guido, visited with Oldfield, who also took time to show them around. By way of thanks she sent him a letter and a photograph showing Wilton, his son, John, who died of TB in 1914 and Will Gillespie. In her letter Marini told Oldfield that while she doesn't know when her grandfather owned the store, she does know that it was a thriving business when her mother, Marguerite, Wilton's youngest child, was born in 1903.
