Golden Wedding Celebrated
at Holmesville
Bride Was a Former Brussels Girl --
Groom Resided in Walton For
Some Years
The Clinton News Record last
week refers to the Golden Wedding
of a former resident of this locality,
who will be remembered by the old-
er generation:—
Mulholland—Peters—At 10 a. m.
on May 24th, 1876, at the bride's
home in Brussels, Ont., Florence
Mary An Adelaide Nightingale Pet-
ers, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. James
.I. Peters, was united in marriage to
Willitun Mulholland, of 'Walton, the
marriage being perfoTmed by Rev.
Mr. Stafford. The bride and groom
of 50 years ago were atter.ded by
Minnie Mitchell, now Mrs. Ben Cole,
of Clinton, and H. B. Peters, brother
of the bride.
On May 24th, 1926, at their home
in Hohnosyille, Mr .and Mts. Mul-
holland celebrated their golien wed-
ding.
Mr. NIulholland's parents livgd near
Seaforth. Mrs. Mulholland's father,
Dr. James Peters, was a surgeon in
the Crimean War and 'Florence
Nightingale was his assisting nurse,
and he named his daughter after her
at Florence Nightingale's request.
Mr. Mulholland's grandfather, Wil-
liam Small, was one of the earliest
pioneer settlers around Hohnesville.
In 1833 he and his wife came from
Toronto to Goderich Twp. and settled
in the wilderness on the "Crown
Land" farm, later known as the Mc-
Leod property, and at present owned
by Michael Flick, on the Huron Road
West. The journey was not made
in those days in an automobile but
in an ox -cart, taking a week or more
to make the trip. Those were the
good old days, f or the first morning
after they settled on their farm they
enjoyed a breakfast of fine speckled
trout caught in the stream that flow'
ed through their farm. Mr. Small
in later days was manager of the
Piper's Flour mill, the first flour mill
in Goderich, owned by the Canada
Co.
Mr. Small was a man of ,avoirdu-
pois, weighing around 250 pounds.
At that titre the land on which the
GoderIch Court House now stands
was swampy ground. Among the
pioneers of those days were the Ach-
esons, the Holmes, the Rutledges and
the Fords.
Mr. and Mrs. Mulholland have en-
joyed happiness and prosperity
through all the years. Their home
has been blessed by a family of six
children„ one son, Harvey, deceased.
The remaining five are: Mrs. W. R.
Cole, of Winnipeg; Mrs. Gibson and
MOS. Draper, of Detroit; Fred G., on
the farm, Huron Road West; John
F. in the garage business, Holmes-
ville. They have sixteen grandchild-
ren and three great-grandchildren
living. The two sons, Fred and John,

and their families, had their wedding
dinner with the bride and groom of
flfty years ago, and the parents had
their two daughters from Detroit to
visit them on Sunday, May 30th.
Mr. Mulholland has a wonderful
memory and recalls many interesting
and amusing incidents from pioneer
days. As a boy he saw the first C.
N. R. engine passing through Holmes-
ville to Goderich. Ha relates that
the church seats in those days were
so high that as a boy he could scarce -
see over them to view the minis-
ter. Up the aisles, uprights 2x4 in.
were fastened to the seats and can-
dles placed on the top of them to
light the church. Mr. Mulholland
also remembers being trimmed to the
tune of the hickory stick for playing
hookey.
They have many relics in their
home' of former days, being posses-
sors of one of the oldest candlesticks
used in Goderich township, and they
still have the beautiful walnut, cane -
bottomed parlor chairs belonging to
Mr. Mulholland's mother.
111r. Mulholland has been the "Vil-
lage Blacksmith" for forty years in
Holmesville, coming here on New
Year's Day, from Walton in 1886,
where he had already spent fifteen
years at his trade. He has been an
artisan of the first order and has an
joyed the well -merited patronage of
the residents of the community and
is still practising his trade as occas-
ion demands. He has two old anvils,
no longer flat, but well hollowed out
by the constant fashioning of the
metals upon them.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Mulholland are
held in high esteem by members of
the community. In times of sickness
and trouble Mrs. Mulholland has al-
ways been one of the "ministering
angels" who has given her efhcient
services gladly and willingly. Both
are enjoying good health. Both are
still young in spirit, and the sincere
wishes of their many friends are ex-
tended that they may still be spared
to enjoy many years of life togetheg.

Gold Standard.
Canada will revert officially to the

Craze Over Old Violins.
Requests for information relative
to violins which owners believe to
bave been made by Stradivari, have
become so numerous that one New
York house uses a form -letter an-
swering questions. Thousands if im-

great violin maker were put out
while he was alive and others have
since followed. With only a few
hundred of his instruments regostee-

workmanship, material and tone.
Actual Taxable Value.
111 an article published in the Ap-
ril number of the Municipal World,
it, says that "the actual taxable value
of property is the rental value,"
Capitalize your rental and you have
your "actual value." There may be
and quite probably is another "cost
price," and even a "selling price"
but the actual value of land is the
rental capitalized. K. W. McKay,
county clerk of Elgin, is editor of the
Municipal World, and is recognzed
, as one of the leading authorities on
municipal law in the province. While
the above may put a new construc-
tion on the assessment law, we are
willing to accept 111 11 Mr. McKay has
so decided.
Newspapers and the Community.
Old Buck, field manager of the
Nebraska Press Association, contri-
butes the following to the United
States Publisher:—The greatest pub-
lic utility in the world is the country
newspaper. It is privately owned
and whatever little profit it may
make goes to private ownership. But
in a larger sense the paper belongs
to the community. It serves the en-
tire community; it cannot prosper
unless the entire community prospers
even more than it does. When a
community, through spite or indif-
ference, fails to support its news-
papers it is causing some loss to the
owner of the paper, but it is causing
a greater loss to itself.
WHO'S OUT THE DOLLAR?
A man wanted it ticket to a cer-
tain town and only had a two dollar
bill. It required three dollars to
get the ticket. He took the two dol-
lar bill to a pawn shop and pawned
it for 31.50. On his way back to
the depot he met a friend to whom.
he sold the pawn ticket for $1.50.
That gave him three dollars for his
ticket, Now who's out the dollar?
