Brucefield Crossing of
Two Important Roads
(By W. H. Johnston in the London
Free Pross)
Among Ibe earliest settlements in
the Huron Tract was (.hat of the
present village of Bruceield, which,
though it never grew to be huge, has
consistently retained its importance
in a more than ordinarily prosperous
rural community. Gaderich was
founded in 1528-29, and 'Neil Ross
calve to Brueefield in September,
1830, locathtg on lot 34, concession I,
Township of Tnckeu'snlith, on the
Lottdou road. He was the ih'st settler
in the township, and if we except a
few colored refugees from slavery in
the United States, who lived just
north of the then hamlet of London.
he was the only settler between Lon•
don and Goderich a distance of about
60 miles. and his son, Donald, was the
first child born in Tuckersmitb.
Others heard of his coaling, and in
1831 James Campbell, John McIntosh.
Robert Hunter, William Hunter, Wil
Liam Bell and Alexander Mackenzie
arrived and located on near -by lots. I11
1832, John Young arrived and settled
on lot 29; just south of the village
site,
'fete London road was chopped, but
not logged, at this date, and these
melt and others were .given work
clearing the roadway. The money
earned was generally allowed as
payment on their land, which was
purchased at $1.50 an acre, but the
price was raised to $2, and then to
$2.50 soon after.
Settlers came pouring in, and a
start was made in clearing a hug farms,
Many of these settlers were yound
men with little knowledge of cook•
Ing, mending their clothes or house-
keeping, but, buoyed up with the
hope of owning a farm of 100 acres,
all their Own, from which they could
not be evicted, was enough to keep
those lonely lads on the job, despite
any hardships. It was a long and
wearisome task, but they were richly
rewarded. They became well to•do
independent farmers, surrounded by
what was, best of all, a family of
strong, self-reliant soles and daugh-
ters,
Energetic and industrious, small
clearings and log bulldings were mul-
tiplied rapidly, and men who were
on the lookout for business locations
saw the possibilities for a Hao open-
ing here. situated at the crossroads
of two main highways, the London
road and that running from Bayfield
to Seaforth and farther.
Donald McMillan opened a general
Store, and it was a success from the
beginning, but. It was not until Aug-
ust 6, 1851, that a post office was
established, with Mr. McMillan as
postmaster. The name I31•ucefleld was
given in honor of Bruce of Scotland.
Other businessmen came, as Mein.

R. W. Marks, W. Scott & Co., and
many others, since that time.
One of the earliest requisites in
new settlements was 0 public house
for the accommodation of travelers
and a. tavern was opened, and it was
not long until a second one was eon•
sidered necessary, and both did a
thriving business. One of these was
eottrolled by the same family for
Iln'ee generations, something that
does not often happen.

TASK AHEAD
1
With silent yet perceptible determination and without
need of regimentation or special organization, the
Canadian Farmer has accepted the responsibility which
is his, to maintain a ready abundance of the vital
foodstuffs so essential for the Empire and the success
of its great cause.
Difficulties and disappointments may have impeded
his progress through the trying years from which he is
just emerging, but provided, as he now is, with purpose
nobler than self-interest, he sets himself to the task with
loftier ambition and renewed energy. Eager he is for
that conscious recognition within himself of having a
definite and necessary part in the Empire's struggle to
retain and maintain our dearly won and highly treasured
freedom. Zealous is he that his contribution may be
worthy and adequate.
By his side ever ready to help make more effective
the farmer's effort is the Canadian Implement Maker
whose co-operation in furnishing the most efficient
machines enables him to multiply his output and extend
his activities so that today he produces more with less
manpower and in the most economical manner yet attained.
Never were demands of Empire more urgent—never
was the Canadian farmer betterfltted or better equipped
to meet whatever demands may be made. Massey -
Harris prizes proudly the distinction it has earned as—
"The Service Arm of The Canadian Farm.”
