The Goderich Signal-Star, 1978-12-21, Page 5ear Editor... • from page ,4 way'•, (a 'very, 094a � OPP,. by the way) refers * l°salm 121, What are some, of the things that Pa.hl:m says (Amer. Standard ver.) "My help comes from Jehovah, Who made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved; He that keepeth thee will - not slumber, Jehovah is thy keeper; Jehovah is thy shade upon thy right hand. Jehovah will keep thee from ali;evil; He will keep thy soul. Jehovah will keep thy going out and thy Coming in From this time forth and for evermore." • Yes, and Psalm 144:15 proclaims: "Happy is the people whose God is Jehovah." With this promise and assurance, how much happier could a person be? Sincerely, C.F./Barney Carey story Dear Editor, As relad in the Signal - Star onNovember 16, the childr .n of Julius and Isabel Carey, of. olborne township, were born in the Island of Guernsey. Their mother went "home" for that purpose. There was, however, an exception. The vagaries of wind and wave_. resulted in Mrs. Carey's ship being at Cork, Ireland, when her son Eugene was bcrn. That was in1858. This information comes from Carey Stead, .of Dorval, Quebec, a grandson of Eugene Carey and eldest son of Florence de Beauvoir, his ,. second daughter, , who married Arthur Henry Strafford Stead. Mr. Stead expresses appreciation of "an in- teresting article con- taining a ,wealth ,of detailed information of which previously I had had no knowledge." Another reader, Dr. G. B. Clancy, recalled that while vacationing in Algiers several years ago he met Bob Carey, whose father arid grandfather were both born in Goderich. Carey at that time was an oil driller. Jack Videan, 154 Nelson street, recalls that Mrs. Nisbet,' formerly Rita Laura Carey, lived in the house at the southeast corner of Wellington and St. Patrick. "When I was of pre- school age," he said, "we lived in the Wellington street house later oc- cupied by Clifford Webb. Carey Nesbit was my age, and we played together at times. When Carey was six or seven years of age they moved to Victoria, B.C." William A. Sutherland, Q,C,,, of Toronto, was interested in the phraseology of the elaborate right-of-way grant to Lucius Carey, as reproduced in the article. He sends along "the worst example I ever saw among my typed stock of precedents from the old days." It is from a long -form chattel mortgage. The part here quoted will give an idea off its ponderous language: "The mortgagor doth hereby COVENANT, PROMISE and AGREE to and with the mor- tgagee that this mor- tgagor shall and will warrant and forever defend all and singular the said goods and chattels unto the mor- tgagee, against the mortgagor and against all and every other person or persons• whatsoever; and also that the mortgagor shall and will well and truly pay or cause to be paid unto the mortgagee the said sum of money and futureadvances in the above proviso mentioned, with interest on the same, on the days and times and in the manner herein- before provided for the payment thereof . . . In case defaut be made, it shall be and may be lawful for the mortgagee peaceably and quietly to take hold, use, occupy, possess and, enjoy the said goods and chattels." W. E. Elliott Be safe Dear Editor, In order to keep ac- cidents to a minimum Ontario Provincial Police commissioner Harold H. Graham has all available OPP personnel on patrol during the Christmas and New Year's holiday. One of the most ef- fective methods of reducing injuries or deaths is by wearing sea tl; elts arid obey speed laws. Graham notes. Legislation in 1976 made wearing seatbelts compulsory and after that a noticeable reduction in fatalities reported by OPP followed. In 1979, 279 fewer people were killed than in 1975, a reduction of just over 23 percent over the two year period. The number of deaths in 1975 in road accidents was 1,197, in 1976 it dropped to 1,112 and in. 1977 it was reduced to 918. There was also a marked' decrease in costs of hospital care and.medical fees over this same period. So remember, when you drive -- buckle up. When you drink, don't drive. The members of the OPP wish you and yours a safe and happy holiday season. R.W.
