The couple send the winter months in Michigan but during their stays in Bayfield they became friends with the Cooks. Mr. Cook died last year and the Lance's felt it was appropriate to donate a book to the library in his memory. The book, Carnival Glass, deals with the late Mr. Cook's antique glass hobby. Accepting the book is Bill Par- tridge, Chief Librarian for Huron County, and Lola Cook. The dedication was made on July 16. (Anne Narejko photo) Couple donate book By Helen Owen On July 16, William Partridge, Huron County's Chief. Librarian, was present at the Bayfield Library to receive a gift from Mr. and Mrs. Don Lance (former Bayfield residents). This beautiful book, Carnival Glass by Bill Edwards, was given as a memorial to John R. Cook, an Ingersoll resident who for more than 25 years had spent his summers in Bayfield. Mr. Cook grew up in nearby Clin- ton where he attended public school and the collegiate. From there he went to teachers' college in Stratford. He subsequently taught in Ingersoll and finally retireds public school principal. • However, he was always interested in an- tiques and became widely known as one of Ontario's foremost authorities on antique glass of all types. He died in 1985, but for several years prior to that he was a partner in an antique business just outside Bayfield (Cook and.Cornish Antiques). His expertise was frequently sought and he always gave generously of his knowledge to all enquiries. Well known in Bayfield, where he had many friends, it is appropriate that his beautiful book dealing with his speciality should be in- scribed: "In memory of John R. Cook, presented to Bayfield Branch Library by Lois and Don Lance."
