Pupils and Teachers Gather at Old School Cup From Pioneer Days Re- turned to Family—Was Lost for Many Years. Fortner pupils from far and near gathered at Cromarty school on Fri- day last when a very successful re- union was held. The teacher, Mr. Ross MacKay, and committees, pro- vided a day that will long be remem- bered, when old friends had an op- portunity of meeting each other again, In the morning class was held in the school for old pupils and tea - the afternoon an tea- chers. s I n excellent program was provided followed by dancing at night. Rain somewhat int- erfered with events at times. Me. Herman Speare of Toronto, an ex -pupil, presented the Section dur- ing the afternoon's program,with a large Standard Dictionary, and re- ceived the thanks of the Secretary. It is a large, beautifully bound „vol- ume. A. unique feature of the program was in a presentation, or rather a returning of a silver cup, to Mrs. Bessie McKie of Kitchener. This cup had been won by Mr, James Mac- Tavish, her father, in 1868, and was presented to him by the Reeve of the Township, Mr. Thos. King, for being the first matt to have five acres of land cleared and ready for Spring sowing in Hibbert Township. This cup somehow was lost, and picked up by Bruce Balfour in Wm. Kay's bush. After considerable polishiug the inscription revealed to whom it was given. It was not until Angus McDonald, a veteran of ninety years who was present at the original pre- sentation, told the whole story, did its significance become blear. Mr. MacTavish lived on the . corner across from the school, the farm now occupied by Mr, David Bruce, Names of those attending the re- union of S. S.
