G, Smith, Wingham Pair 47 Yrs. Ago Speaking about Fall Fairs; Mr, Hiram Smith told Thu ADVANCE that the first fall fair he can remember be- ing held in Wingham was held in the field on which now stands the Gurney Glove Factory. It took place forty- seven years ago on the 8th of October. There was only one team of horses at the fair and they were owned by the late Thos. Henderson, father of Mr, William J. Henderson who is now a director of the Fair board. Oxen were more numerous than horses in those days, "That fair day forty-seven years ago," •continued Mr. Smith, "was a beautiful day and the dust was thick but on towards evening the clouds gathered, the atmosphere almost reached freezing and before morning several inches of snow covered the ground. Many farmers were com- pelled to leave their roots in the ground all winter." EVEPYBODY'S COLUMN AUCTION SALE- Farm Stook and Imple- ments at Lot 31.
