100 years ago
Remembering Clinton as it was 4,
What was Clinton like
100 years . ago? Was it
bigger, smaller, was it
growing, shrinking, or
staying the same?
Well, L.N. ,Bronson, a
historian who writes a
weekly column called
"Looking over Western
Ontario" for the London
Free Press, some months
ago quoted from an 1880
Free Press about Clin-
ton's status 10 decades
ago.
During that year, The
Free Press ran
descriptive accounts on
various communities to
the north and northeast of.
the city, showing their
development over. the
years and their status as
trade or manufacturing
centres. One such review
covered Clinton:
"It is generally con-
ceded by all here that
there is a genuine revival
in business and that
Clinton at last is ex -I
periencing a return of
good times. Owing to the
springing up of towns and
villages on all sides, the
progress was impeded for
some years and the town
remained to a certain
extent stationary but of
lately has taken a fresh
stand and is now enjoying
a greater degree of
prosperity than ever
before. -
"Clinton is a
manufacturing centre.
Few towns of its size can
boast of so many in-
dustries. It has two large
salt blocks, one of them,
the Stapleton being the
largest in the Dominion.
The organ factory
deserves special men-
tion. In company with his
worship the mayor, your
reporter visited the
establishment and in-,
spected the process of
manufacture. The in-
struments made here are
of superior quality and
are not surpassed by any
on the continent.
Experienced men are
employed and only the
best material used.
Orders are now on file for
60 instruments and
employment is given to a
large number of hands.
"... There is a large
separator factory owned
by Glasgow, McPherson
& Co. two planing and
sash mills, a flax mill
owned by the mayor, Mr.
Forrester, employing
from 40 to 60 hands, a
large flour mill, a steam
carriage factory, owned
by Rumble, Rumble and
Leslie, another by H.
Cantelon, Corbett's
woollen factory, Dean's
tannery, Moore's tan-
nery, Walker's steam
saw mill and bending
shop, several cooper
shops and a dog factory
not of the domestic
animal so familiar to all
but dogs used in saw mills
to hold the log in its place,
it being the only onrbf its
kind in this country. One
would imagine that with
this large 'list Clintonites
would be content but the
cry is for more. The drill
shed has been converted
into a hay packery and
some 50 tons are turned
out daily. All these with
nine dry goods stores, 26
groceries, 11 boot and
shoe stores, three book
stores, three druggists,
eight hotels, three har-
dware stores, four fur-
niture shops, several
harness makers and the
usual supply of barbers,
blacksmiths, etc. go to
make up the town of
Clinton. It enjoys a first
class market, there being
seven or eight grain
buyers, the receipts on
Saturday being over 8,000
bushels."

purchased at a cost of
$3,000. Six new brick
stores and a number of
private residences have
been erected this sum-
mer and a large number
are projected for next
season.
Article concluded:
"All branches of trade
are active and the streets
wear a busy appearance,
being crowded with
sleighs bringing in
produce and taking back
merchandise. (Article
was written late in the -
year after the sleighing
season - .had - .corn-
menced) ."
Principal hotels were
a
listed as the Commercial
and Rattenbury's. The
Commercial was fitted
with spacious sample
rooms and was described
as "An exceedingly
comfortable house,
largely patronized by the
commercial fraternity."
(Ed's note: The
description of a steam
carriage factory and a
steam saw mill meant the
plants were powered by a
steam engine rather than
by water.)
