CLINTON The geographical position of the town now known as Clinton would seem to have insured for it an ascen- dancy as a community of the Huron Tract. Located at the junotion of the famous Huron and London roads, which were the utast important .in early Western Ontario, there seemed nothing wanting to insure a rapid growth for .the settlement. Yet for a lengthily period after it was first oc- copied there were few settlers attract- ed to it. Later, however, came the rail- road, ailroad, and, as a direot result, the little town embarked on a new era. The 'first settlers to !build witht'n the present limits of th.e town were Jonas' Gib;bings, from the County of 'Peel, and '.Peter and Stephen Vanderburg, from 'near 'To'ronto, Jonas Gi'bbfngs left 'Toronto in June of 1113,311, and coming to'Goderich by water, he ven- tured out the Huron. road to where it joined .with the London road. The., road to London 'has not 'been opened, and the Huron road, as 'Well(, was only ahapiped in ,certain 'plates, and: 'not'' logged. The V'nttdedbu'rgs 'came- by;; land, however. They arrived at the stuIne time as 'Gibbings, Who settled on lot 23 of the Huron .road, in the Township of .H'ullett. Peter Vander - burg settled on the corner lot .of Tuckersmith, while his brother set- tled directly opposite to him on the Goderich side. It was Peter Vanderburg who built the first tavern, and it was the first of its kind for many miles. After a number of years one of the Vander - burg 'brothers died. and the remain- ing one moved away to the. United !States. He was succeded by a man named Read, ,more commonly, known in the community as "Ya'nkee Read," Read kept the store and tavern until 11844, when William • Rattenbury bought 'hint out. dor a dung time .previotts to this the country surrounding the Vanderburgs had -become fairly well settled to the north eon the base line), to the south on the London Road, and to the north west and southeast on the !Huron. Rd. Tt,e immediate territory surrounding "The Corners" had not an inha'b'itatt't, with the exception of those mention- ed, until after the tooting of William Rattenbury, This gentleman, who was really the founder of thr town, was a native of Devonshire, England, He came eo Canada in 11881, and to the Huron Tract in 1138.5. He settled First on lot 42, of the London Rd. sur- vey, in the Township of Tuckersmtith. Later he 'roved to Goderich, where he 'lived 'for eight years 'before •mov- ing to Vanderburgs itt 118414. I'He was a. 'blacksmith by trade, and had been working chiefly for the Canada Com- pany. Recognizing the advantage of the position occupied by the Vanler- burgs, he purchased three of the hots on the four 'corners, where the two roads crossed, and laid out a village as early as 11954, which he called Clin- ton, in 'honor of Lord Clinton, upon whose estate in 'Devonshire he had been raised, as his father was one of the largest tenant farmers on the estate, He had paved the way for the set- tlers to came -,int. .Among the first to come were Lavin. a blacks.ntith, and Higgins, Who was a shoemaker. Another of the (first settlers was an 'Englishman, (Joseph Whitehead, who later came to be well known. Old- timers are wont to recall many tales of amusing incidents in regard to this ;man's perplexing problems in trying to cope with the "bloomin' stumps, snakes, 'bush swamps, mosquitoes and fire -!Ates, which 'he called "winkies," But Mr. Whitehead wet !fired with ,g .N* THEATRE EATR SEAFOVTH NOW PLAYING CHARLES 'BUTPERWOR'F WALTER ABEL We Went to College Hugh Herbert , Una Merkel Old Grads Cutting Campus Capers, CARTOON COMEDY Mon.

Whitehead became a prominent cit- izen in the locality. He eras a mech. apical engineer, and it was generally known that he was the 'man who "Fired" the first trip of the first engine that constructed by Stevenson, and as that engineer handled the throttle of the 'Rocket" on the celebrated run front Slanchestra to Liverpool, Whitehead was acting as the stoker. Alf ter seteling near Vanderbiurgs he was engaged in farming, and chief- ly in the making of potash, until the building of the Great Westterit Rail- way, when he took a contract on the road in the vicinity of Dundas. He was so successful in this that he was able later to take a large contract on the Buffalo & .Lake Huron 'Railway, from 'Brantford to Buffalo. !Follow- ing this, he returned to the village, where 'his active interest and co-oper- ation in development were rewarded. in .part by his 'being made the first reeve. Clinton owes a good deal of its de- velopment to the enterprise of Mal- colm SI'eTaaggart. an early settler who established a fanning -'mill factory. The 'Rance brothers, who came in 105re, started a store and kept the first post -office in Clinton. The building of the Buffalo & Lake H'urott Railway brought a marked un- crease in the population of Clinton, so pctrate it into a village. These were that steps were inaugurated to incor- started in 1881517, and we find that on January 3, 1119518, it became a separate municipality. The following extracts are taken from the minute -bunk of the first meeting: "The returning officer presented the ,pollsbook used at the munioipal election, 'held on the 4th and 51th of the current month, with a certificate and sworn statement 'thereon, from which it appeared that Joseph White- head, George Fulton, 'Samuel Rantce, William IRo vella and Jonas +Gib'bings had been elected, and these gentle- men 'being present, recorded their oaths and qualifications of office, when it was 'mo'ved 'by Samuel H. Rance and seconded by George Ful- ton 'bhat owing to the .deep interest taken by !Joseph Whitehead in the welfare and ,prosperity of Clinton, this meeting is of the opinion that heis the .most fit and proper :person to ad- vocate its interests; therefore be it resolved that he be reeve for the cur- rent year; which resolution was car- ried, and the couaeil adjourned for hall an hour to enable the reeve to dye sworn in.
