Lifetime Dream For Retirement Is
Fulfilled In Scenic Maitland Black
(By our Auburn eorress ondp .t)
AUBURN, Aug. 28. �- ulf ng
the dream, of a lifetime, held by
:many city residents in particular,
Thomas Dodds has returned -to the
scenes of his childhood to spend
his summers during his retirement
years. Even while he was engaged
in teaching in various parts of
Ontario and also in the United
States, he booked forward to the
days when he would be finished
with the strain of the classrooms
and could return to the. shores of
his beloved Maitland River and
the beautiful scenery along its
valley.
So, for the past' three summers
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Dodds have
beenevaeationing un -the Base Line
,road in the Maitland Bloehi,, living
in the gracious, old stone house
known as the George Henry Ball
lam Thome.
,MF. Dodds' early life was spent
in this district where he recalls
many happy days along the Mait-
land River. He was born pn a
farm near -Walton, and after his
early education, taught -school at
Walton, Grand Bend, Fort Erie
and then at Buffalo, New York.
At Buffalo he ,taeght for several
years and was principal of the
Bryant Stratton Business Institute
1.01' ten years. At the time of his
retirement in April, 1955, he was
vice-president of the Institute.
• Mr. Dodds and a college friend
composed a book on ,:mathematics
'which is still in use in several
colleges throughout the United
States,
He is an ardent gardener now,
and also enjoys other hobble's sueh
as hunting and fishing. He built
for hirnse1 a!ply-weed raft, three
feet square, placed on top of a
huge rubber mete tube tire With
a sponge rubber cushion placed on
top. For a paddle he caved one
out of a cedar fence rail and, he
can travel at quite a speed up
and down the Maitland wherever
he wants to get large catches el
black bass and to admire the
beautiful scenery. -
•MTs, Dodds was formerly Ade-
laide Geromethe, of Grand Bend.
They have one son, John Dodds,
of Detroit, who, with his wife, and
son Steven, have been holidaying
with them. Steven, who is 12
years old, is following in the foot-
steps of his grandfather and
father, John. Last week he landed
an !18 inch 'bass, unassisted. Mr.
and Mrs. Dodds have a permanent
home in Florida,where they spend
the winter monts. '
T ie old stone hhuse, situated on
the b arks of the Maitland, hag nos
modern equipment. They have
grown -to love the spacious rooms
with the oflditime fireplaces, wind-
ing stairway, dumbwaiter, old cis-
tern pump, coal -oil lamps, wood
stove and washtubs and each year
they are 'happy to return to their
summer home and -many Auburn
friends.
