Visiting Goderich, Dettliit Councilman Finds Town "Wide-awake and Pleasant With the under way, 99 tourist season getting roughly the size of Harbor Beach, Huron County Museum which had a population of 2,347 in is once again a popular spot for visitors from far and near. One of the recent visitors was James 11. Lincoln, a member of the Conon Council, of Detroit. Telling of his visit, Councilman Lincoln wrote to J. H. Neill, cur- ator of the Museum, as follows: "Just a word of appreciation for the courtesy shown the Lincoln family. The entire family enjoyed our. trip through the very fine museum. We were especially in- terested in the exhibition showing the different methods of sawing lumber. It certainly took a great deal of skill and patience to con- struct this remarkable exhibit. "I was raised on a farm four miles south of Harbor Beach, Michigan (this is Huron County, Michigan). Harbor Beach is direct- ly west across the lake from Gode- rich. As a boy, I 'heard, Goderich mentioned from time to time, and it had always been my intention to pay a visit to our neighbors across the lake. 1 have long since moved to Detroit. "Recently. I was looking at a map and noticed that Goderich was roughly 137 miles from Detroit. Mrs. Lincoln and myself decided it would make a nice day's outing, for ourselviss and four children. We were'- pleasantly surprised. I thought that Goderich would be Nursing Home Pleasant surroundings. Operated by Reg. Nurse. Properly balanced homy cooked meals. er Tray service. Mrs. 11. Earnshaw PHONE 1593' 53 NORTH STREET -4tf 1950. Goderich must have a popu- lation close to /six thousand. We quieklyr.,noticed that the lawns and houses were well -kept, which is a good recornmendation for the people of any town. "We visited the parks and beach, and noted that two ships were in port. All of these things, together 'with the new Court House and Museum, gave the appearance of a wide-awake and pleasant com- munity. The .people we spoke to were friendly and pleased, to an- swer our questions. "You may be interested in know- ing that the land directly across the lake from Goderich is very similar. It is good farm country. However, the bank leading up from the lake at Goderich is much steeper than the area around Har- bor Beach, which gives the area around Goderieh somewhat of a scenic advantage, as well as certain, drainage advantages. "Detroit has a population of nearly two million people. We, like it here very much or we would not have madtOtour home. HId>rrr- ever, because of the fact that '1 was raised in a comnmunity not unlilte Goderich, 11 still find a special enjoyment in visiting small communities. "We look forward to coming to Goderich, again, when we can stay longer. "Thank Yon, again;I£or Y01,' at- tention and courtesy."
