ging bees when numb wood was cut
and burned in order to get the land
cleared.
He recalls walking to Bayfield with
his mother labile he was still a small
boy. One of the older generation,
jamee Sherritt, was a particularly
strong man and it is related that he
walked all the way to Goderich with
a bag of grain on 'his shoulder, had
the !flour made and carried it home.
Mr. Johnston is still very active -for
his years; last summer he was busy
duringQharvest driving the 'binder as
expertly as ever, in recent years he
carved 'Ft sleek deer's head from wood
and mounted on it deer horns seat
