TILLSIINBIIBG
A Hustling Business Town.
Last Saturday THE POST scribe took a '
run to Tillsonburg, Elgin Co., via the
G. T. R. route of Listowel, Stratford,
Woodstock and Norwich Junction. The
trip of too miles occupies from 10.28 to
8.3o p. m., several hours being spent
at Listowel, Stratford and Woodstock'
waiting for connections. Owing to the
Sumtner holiday travel space in the
coaches was at a premium,: We were
fortunate in having Rev, Mr. Thynne,
of Palmerston, and Rev. Mr, Langford,
of Monkton, as travelling companions •
part of the way.
A delegation from the Methodist
parsonage took the place of receptio
committee at Tillsonburg where over,
flowing hospitality was evidenced. This
was oar first visit to this town and 'we
will give our readers tbe benefit of a note
concerning it. -
Tillsonburg, called after the -well
known enterprising Tillson tainily, is
located in Dereham township and was
originally designated as 'Derehanr ,
Forge;" the designation bearing on the
establishment of a blacksmithieg,-,
business. It has a population of about
3,000 and is well situated and enjoys a
large trade. Ingersoll and Aylmer are
each 16 miles distant and Norwich x3.
miles away. Good -farming community
adjoins and Farmers are prosperous and
progressive, many engaged -largely in
dairying. Between Tillsonburg and
Norwich Junction wild mustard occu-
pies too conspicuous a place upon some.

the other necessary institutions usually,.
found in such towns and all show thrifty
business management. Railway facili-
ties are excellent, the town being served .
by the G. T. R., C. P. R., M. C. R.

Mr. Aldrich who is also postmaster, and
"The Observer" with editor Law at the

constituency. Churches represented are '-

it are, stately brick blocks and tilified -

doing a goad trade, Among some of
the larger stores are Not•thways 2 stored

A merchants' delivery system is in
vogue whereby 3 rigs deliver all parcels
from the stores with which contracts
have beeu made. A number of the
blocks have the upper flats fitted up for
residence purposes and find ready ten-
ants.
Lakes. Joseph and Lisgar are close to
the town and could easily be made
beauty spots with park association about 1

quality of the residences is a•noticeable j

sites, modern architecture, commodious
in design and fronted by neatly kept
lawns, few towns can compare wit
Tillsonburg. There are two f0untai
