OLD MARKET SQUARE
RECALLED BY MOTION
A motion passed by Seaforth
Town Council this week at the re-
quest of the Hesky Flax Co., is of
historical significance. The order
will provide for closing a few inches
of street allowance on which the
factory building encroached.
This encroachment arises from the
fact that Seaforth's first town hall
was built on a market square, lo-
cated at the junction of Market and
Jarvis Streets.
After the old town hall was burn-
ed about sixty years ago, the four
corners of the market square were
sold to private owners.
The original Broadfoot and fax
furniture factory which had been
built around the northeast corner of
the market square, was extended at
that time out to its present ioda-
tion, on the street corner,
The request for this order was to
settle legal details it connection
with the sale of the plant to the On-
tex Toy Company by the Hesky rlav
Products, who have owned the
building for the past dozen years.
