The peach trees of Mr. Cox certainly must have been hardy as the last ones were winter -killed in the 1930's. Many apple and pear trees, planted about the same time by my great-grandfather the above mentioned Mr. Cox, are still living and bearing fruit. Cuttings and buds from the less popular, varieties of today have been taken to the Apple Museum and grafted in the hopelhat the varieties of the past ;Will. not become extinct. - Yours truly, E.G. Osbaldeston More Kneeshaws Dear Editor: On page 83 continued through on June 30, 1977 you have a write-up about the Kneeshaw family. I will let you know a few things more and correct some in- formation. There are no survivors in my father's family. My father Thomas Henry Kneeshaw died in 1943. His family was as follows: married twice, to Alberta Jean Ross deceased; to Verna Isabel McLeod deceased; Al4rt James Kneeshaw, son, deceased; Byron Ross Kneeshaw, son; John Henry Kneeshaw, son, deceased; Jean Isabel Kneeshaw, daughter; Ernest Roy Kneeshaw, son. Albert worked at the Goderich Salt Co. for years, married Isabel Glazier of Clinton, deceased. Ross worked at the telephone company in Toledo, Ohio, married Elizabeth Walters of Grand Rapids, Ohio. Jack never married. Jean married Douglas , Upper of St. Catharines; they live in Toronto. Ernest married Maude Elizabeth Howes of Seaforth. We live in London and I work for Westminster Hospital (will be Victoria Hospital on the 3rd of October 1977.) Albert had three of a family: Frank of Corrunna, Ontario; Katherine of Goderich (Mrs. Ted McAstocker); Olive of Sarnia, (Mrs. Edwin Monk); all born in Goderich. Ross had three in his family: Thomas of Detroit, Michigan; Mary of Fort Wayne, Indiana (Mrs. Gordon Denton); Susan of Toledo, Ohio (Mrs. Glenn Gundy Jr.); all born in Toledo, Ohio. Ross was born in Goderich. Ernest had two in his family: Brenda Louise, (Mrs. John Hibbs, London); and William 'Martin Kneeshaw at home. William and Brenda were torn in London; Ernest h.GodtrIch and Elizabeth in We also wish to thank of- Seaforth. ficials • at the historic Huron Yours truly County Gaol and Huron E. R. Kneeshaw County Museum for 315 FidrvieW Ave. hospitality shown on our tourer Thanks again bear Editor: Now that the pressures of a beautifully -executed Jubilee Three celebration have subsided, I imagine everyone in Goderich is well rested and has in a way gone back to everyday routine style of living. The city, and especially its 150th Birthday Committee, can feel proud of •a job wonderfully done, one to be remembered for a long time by its citizens. Please accept our belated Bay City, Michigan, sister city thanks for the friendship and hospitality shown us in Goderich, both for the July 3-4 and July 9-10. weekends . . . to Police Chief and Parade Chairman Pat King for the police escort into town for our bus delegation; to "Mac" Campbell and his Jubitee Three committee for the convertible, in red, white and bluebunting furnished for our St. Patrick's Day queen and her court . . . for the arrangements so our queen and other dignitaries could be introduced at the . July 9 Arena and Canadian Legion festivities . . . to the Hotel Bedford management for co- operation in our housing arrangements . . . and to your community for the warm greeting along the streets as we participated in- your outstanding parade. Even "Davy Crockett" found Goderich one of the most "receptive" com- munities after parade ap- pearances throughout much of the world. Paiticipation in the parade and your com- munity's Sesquicentennial are things we will remember and treasure for years to come. Mayor John R. Willertz, his City Commissioners, other city officials and others who were in Goderich for the July 2-4 weekend, including the special honors to Bay City on the Fourth of July, also join me in these public thanks.

By Sunday $33 had been raised throughout the carnival for Muscular Dystrophy.(staff photo) • • To your friends in Bay City, this sister city twinning with Goderich has to be one of the finest developments in our city's history, and certainly the genuine friendship that sprang up between our two cities has rubbed off on our "neighbors" for Standish, a • smaller community about 40 miles north of Bay City, is presently negotiating with three similar -sized com- munities in your midst with the idea of involving one as a sister , city. 'they are Wingham, Seaforth and Kincardine. All three are expressing interest. Standish Mayor Jack Stoner ac- comPanied the Bay City delegation to Goderich July -9- 10. and visited Wingham at thattime. London, N6C 4V1 otthose pu 11c_Pla.celbAtild were greatly impressed by both facilities. We may arrange another bus trip to Goderich later this fall if plans materialize for a home -and -home series of matches between our Bay City Kickers soccer team and Goderich's. • Meanwhile, -we are recommending, with backing of our Mayor Willertz, and City Commissioners here, that the sister city relationship between our cities be made permanent with official action by both city governments. We like this 'Prettiest Town in Canada" and there is none other in the whole world we'd rather be paired with - permanently. We can see this as a start on exciting cultural exchanges between our Osties, and we are all for that. Always in friendship, Leslie E. (Les) Arndt, President, Bay City Sister City Program (People -to -People) and Copy Editor -Columnist, - The Bay CityTimes, Bay City, Michigan. Help, please V4' not care about our town. I find; it difficult to believe that any of us sharing the town as our home, deliberately wishes to eliminate an attraction which pleases the eye and expresses our pride and enjoyment of -our community. As no person actually has a real need for a supply of flags, I presume that the flags are taken on a dare, as a, prank involving some small measure of risk and thus becoming a , tempting diversion. • I am' appealing to the person or persons responsible - hoping that I may be able to reach them through the newspaper - to please leave these flags alone. They supply much of the colout which would be considerably reduced by their absence in the future. If , someone - perhaps a family member - wishes to return a mistakenly acquired flag, the Parks Dept. would be most grateful. All you have to do is to leave the flag in an envelope or a box at the Town Hall el/trance on West Street or any other convenient place where we could pick it, up. Please mark it Parks Dept. There would be no hard feelings, just a mistake Corrected. Dear Editor: The three flags at the Jubilee Park form a colourful part of this little green" and growing area we were happy to create in order to make the drab Highway 8 entrance more attractive, in lasting memory of the Jubilee 3 , festivities. Now the ' flags keep disappearing with alarming regularity. The Paks Dept. has come to the point where we can no longer afford the money to replace them. Perhaps the flags are taken by out-of-town persons who do Yours sincerely, Elsa Haydon Blood is needed EVERY DAY T w T 6 • • • • • • • 6 • F s 6 6 6 6 �1 6 6 4 6 4 yr•••••i•••••••••.......•. .••••••,•••• 7.1.•tr......•••••••• • I'...41. • SV"..••.• • ••••. • • ..••• 0 ••••••••• ...•!,•%.4 • •••••.• • ..41•.• • ,•.• 0,.••••.• • .1E, ,•••• • 10,1.
