TOWN TOPICS
TWENTY-FI'VE YEAR'S AGO
July, 1905.
Iron Bridges Replacing, Wood.
It is somewhat currently reported
that Mr. Ainsley, flee county engineer,
purposes' resigning. He has held that
pos'i'tion• for twenty years, Who will
succeed 'him it is impassible to say,
but it is '.neaintaineil that M'r, 'Donald
Patterson, o,f:W'swanosh, knows more
about bridge .building than any other
member of the county coturcil. There
are 107 county bridges in' Huron, the
different branches of the..Maitland be-
ing responsible for most of (Brenn.
Many of these 1bridges; are (built • o
wood .and are rapidly playing out. In
the next few'yea'rsthe county will be
at large expense in replacing .these
bridges with iron: structures. The day
of the wooden 'bridge is gone.
Killed in California.
Word has been received of the ac-
cidental death of Mr, John 'Tully, ,who
tees killed by the falling of a tree on
his property in California: 'John, hav-
ing spent 'the earlier position of his life
in the south, returned to his old 'home
in .M'dKillop a few years ago and took
up a 'farm in that township, Where he
was universally respected, and con-
sidered a genial, whole-sou'led favorite.
Some two or three years ago he again
went South, this time never to return,
Killed by Lightning.
The storm of Past 'Wednesday even-
ing caused the death of the 19 -year-old
son of Mr. Jlohn Ch'ann'bers who lives
on the north boundary of Hay town-
ship, two Hiles and a'hedf east of Hills:
green:,Mr. and Mrs. Chambers' had
been to a picnic daring the day and
on account of the storm returned.hbme
rather late. Mrs. Members went out
to milk the cows and found her s'on,
who had been left at home alone, ,lying
in the barn door, dead, seemingly
struck by a bolt of lightning, as the
crown of his 'head was covered with
blood, The barge (hank barn of Mr.
Stephen Troyer on the Parr line was
also ;struck by a bolt but the fire was
extinguished before mu'c'h damage was
done.
One of the Pioneers.
.Mr. V, .Diehl of Bruce'field was in
town during the week and shad a chat
with friends •of many years. Mr. Diehl
has seen much of life. ,Barn in: the
kingdom of Bavaria in 11821, the came
to America when a young mien. In 1950
-he was then a resident olf ;St. Jlosepth
in 'Missouri -,he took the 'gold fever
and 'journeyed to that land • of promise,
California. He went by the overland
route 'and his party of eleven was Six
months on the way. Of his adventures
of that trip and his three years' stay
in. California Mr. Diehl talks very en-
tertainingly. It is thirty-six years since
he first settled in the township df Stasi
ley.
A Remarkable Man.
The Most remarkably active .man for
his years in these parts 'is Me. George
Habkirk, of the 2nd ,concession Of Mc-
Killop. Ailthough over 8.0 years of age
he has within the past few weeks, dug
over 180 rods of 'ditch and placed
therein over 3,000 tire. On 14Tonday the'
old gentleman was ,assisting in taking
off a neighbor's hay crap. Mr. Hab-
kirk settled in 'MnKiib'op tdwns'h'p 70
years ago and 'has since resided there
continuously. 1When he came in 1834
the Huron road had just been udder -
brushed and a road opened up to Eg-
nyandvil'le where the Canada ,Company
had erected a gstst m'i'll the year prev-
ious. 'The present site df 'Seaforth was
then a vtlderness, without a house of
any description. Mr, Habkirk's remin-
iscences of the early days are very in-
teresting. His estimable (wile 'is still
living, having come out on the same
ship and settling in this neigh'botihdod
at the some'tim'e, being but a new yeasts
behind her husband in point of age.

YOUNG ,MAN ' SHOT IN.
THIGH AT MITCHELL
Wild Raid on Garage Early Sunday
Morning in Neighboring Town.
Fol'lo'wing e wild ride in stolen mot -
Or car, driven by a. kidnapped pro-
vincial traffic ,ottfi'eer, who at the point
of a' gun acted as•chauffeur while a ser-
vice station and six oc'cu:pauts were
rolblbed and one o'f the latter seriously
wounded, J. .Lamontagne, 26, of 613•
IGiebeh'ome avenue, Toronto, was lodg-
ed in Waterloo jail under the impres-
sion that the man 'he Was alleged to
have shot was dead, .
The victim of 'the shooting, 'Mal -
'calm 'Graham, of Durham, was taken
to Stratford General H'os'pi't'al with a
gunsh'o't wounisi in the thigh. Three
other young men, one'cif them pravin-
c'i'al officer Who was "taken .for a ride"
are c'ongratulatin'g themselves .that
;they are alive,
The place victimized at an early
hour Sunday morning was the garage
.of E. VV..Fav1•m, located in the heart
of 1Mi!tchell.The bandit !gat away
With a little more than $40, w'hic'h in
chtddd the contents of the garage 'till
and the con'ten'ts nt the pockets of
Gordon Fawns and Malcolm Graham.
On Monday horning Lamontagne
was removed to 'Stratford, where he
will face a series of serious charges.
,Geahaan, the Mallet remo've'd from his
thigh, will recover. Mean'whil'e, the
police are scouring the countryside in
search of Lamonvtagee's• companion
who, while he did not actually figure
in the: hold-up, played a prominent
part in the activities Of the pair for
a few hours preceding the hold-up.
He was last seen ab'ou't 7 a. nn. near
'Gad'•s Hill driving. in the car which
started the wild ride, The Machine
was that owned by Dr. Angus MdLe:an
of Dundas street, London, which was
sto len there at 9.45 o'clock one morn-
ing East .week and has s'in'ce been
sought by the polibe of the province.
The story reads more like the wild-
estt ,fiction than an, actual •occurrence.
It did not have its beginning in Mat -
chill, but close to the town of Walk-
erton, about 9 o'clock Saturday night.
During the greater part of the day a
car sto'od parked on the highway a
short distance from the town, The
suspicions of many were aroused and
a 'call was sent for Traffic" Officer
Marshal Hodgson, of Walkerton, who
patrols highway No. 9, out of that
town. 'He searched the car, finding an
opened case of beer within. He or-
dered the men from the machine and
searc'he'd) then), finding them un-
armed. One of the pair produced a
l'iqu'or permit and a driver's license
which the ofilecer was examining in
front of the headlights when he heard
a sat!dden call:
"Stick .them upl"
The constab'fe turned and made for
the man, believing him unarmed,
when the second prodded hien in the
back with a revolver. The two gull's
had been secreted in a bag in the car,
which they reached ,while the off1cer.
examined the licenses. •Hodgson was
held at the point of the gun while his
revolver, hilly and 'han'd'cuffs were
taken from him: Hodgson was forced
into the car and compelled eo drive
the bandits allowed far several halms.
'One of the' bandits sat by his side,
while the other sat in the rear -with
a revolver ,pressed to the officer's ribs.
There was beer .and liquor in the car
and the officer .was tnade:to drink two
bottles of beer. With the.•'afticer as
chauffeur a tour of Port Elgin, Kin-
cardine and Goderieh was made before
Mitchel: was reached about d o'clock,
Running through stop streets, speed-
ing and in other ways fracturing the
Provincial Highway A:c't, the officer
endeavored to attract attention, bet to
no avail.
Arriving at Mitchell they toured the
town for a short spell and then parked
wear the Bank oif Montreal. One of
the two gat out o'f the car, leaving his
compan'i•on to guard :the traffic onlficer.
Lamontagne, et is supposed, walked
directly to the rawm• garage, which
is but a, few paces from •the hank and
on the same side ,of the street. Tn• the
office of the garage 'Gordon F'atwvn, 19
year old .sou the proprietor, and Don-
ald Graham, age 18, the night attend-
ant, were engaged in conversation,
The bandit entered and ordered them
to hold up -their hatreds. Both youths
oatnplie.d. The banclit then ordered
Flamm to open the till, which con-
tained $23, and which the ban'd'it, pock-
eted. Mr. Fawns Sr., the proprietor of
the station, had left the building only
a few moments before, .taking with
him $1,100 in cash, which is believed.
to t e the haul which the bandits were
after.
The thug teen •herded the youths
into elle batik shop and .off into a dark
corner. 1Whi'te thus engaged Malcolm;
Graham, ,af Durham, an older brother!
of Doeelid, who was spen'di'ng the,
week -end at his home in M'itchel'l, ac-'
conaipanied by Fred. Brown, drove ug
to the garage and their car p'a'rtly eov-i
ere'd,the oiling pit inside the garage.,
Brown stepped into fhe •totaetort seal
tion, w'hi'le Graham went in s'e'arch o'f,
bus brother, M 'Gra'h'am appeared in
the ,garage tihe bandit wheeled about,
an'gl at the 'point of a gun ordered him
to join the 'fw'd other ry'ouths who
were standing in the corner. He
searched Graham, taking $15 in cash
and sonie,'valuable papers. As Bro'wri'
emerged from the station Malcolm"
,Grahan called to him to get the poa-
iFe Ai'nio'st simultaneously the bandit
fired• a strut into the floor of the gar-
age, the bullet deflecting and airlkiiug
young' Pawm. At the same time the
bandit turned and ran and upon leav-
ing the garage fell into the 'oiling p:it.
10amlberieg out he continued his dash,
'beet went in the •o'plpo ite direction to
inhere his companion was parked.
Malcolm Graham foll'ow'ed him,
while.Dont'Pd Graham ran for his car,
wherein he had a revolver. -Taking
the revolver he fired six shots at the
fleeing man, but none of then made
the mark. Fawani got into his f'ather's
car, a coupe, and game pursntit. IGoinlg
down the street a short distance he
picked up D'ona'ld Graham, who was
foll'awitt'gthe bandit with his revolver;
Malcolm Grah'ani was .ashort distance
ahead almost on the heels of the ban-
dit and ars '\Fawns approached )Donald
,Graham the latter jumped on the rtui-
ring' board of the car. They proceed-
ed <further until they overtook :Mal-
colm Ge'a'hem.'
About t'he same time the 'bandit
wheeled about and :pointing the gun
at the youths ordered them to stop,
Fawn halted the car and the bandit
clambered aboard the right running
board and ,ordered him to ,drive. Mean-
while M'alcol'm Graham clambered a-
board the spare are at the rear, 'The
bandit ordered him off, but he refused
and the bandit forthwith fired a shot'
which struck young Graham on the
hip and he fell to the pavement. The
bandit then ordered' young Fawns to
turn around and pro•cee'ded out the
highway. At the first cross -road the
thug told Faw,in to turn to tete.left.
Meanw'hile Donald 'Graham was cling-
ing to the left running board of the
car with an. empty revolver in his
hand. The bandit is alleged to have
threatened to ,shoot Donald Graham,
whereupon the latter' dropped from the
car and tumbled into the ditch, badly
injuring his left leg, Faw,m was ord-
ered to drive on, the bandit meanwhile
clitn'4ing in the 'wind'ow and taking
his. place ' beside the . driver. :After
driving several miles on back conces-
sions the bandit ,ordered ,Fawn to stop
the car. He told ,Fawn• to get out of
the car, telling him he was going to
kill him.
"Lhave already killed one man and
I Haight as well kill you," the bandit
is alleged to have said to Fawn,
But apparently the hold-up pian
changed his mind. IHe told Fawm to
stand out in front of the car. IHe
searched him, taking $3.70 from his
packet's. :Then ordering Flawm to the
s'ideroad the bandit drove off..
In The meantime the bandit's 'com-
panion, who had stood parked near the
Bank of 1'Ion'treai with Traffic Officer
.Hodgson at the wheel, hearing the
gun shots, ordered the officer to step
bre the gas. With a revolver tickling
his rib's the officer complied and Inc'a
time they raced about the streets of
Mitchell, later heading into the
,c'otna!try, the other bandit apparently
fit search .of his companion, 'While on
their, travels they .carne across Donald
(Graham., (Graham was astonished to
see a man in a traffic officer's uniform
driving the car. He was invited into
the car, driven more than a mile into
t'he country and then told to get otit
and wait half an hour when .the officer
would return and pick ham up. The
officer thoughtfully told young Gra-
h.a§n his name in: the hopes that 11e
would get hack into town and tell of.
the meeting.
Donald 'Graham and 'Gordon 'Fa'tenn
came back to town, telling the direc-
tion in which the bandit had flown.
Meantime:Malcolm Graham had been
removed to the Stratford General, hos-
pital and posses of men armed with
shotguns had organized and searched
the neighborhood..
,About 4 o'clock Sunday morning
Traffic Officer Hodgson telephoned
ir'otn Brunner to ;the effect that he had
been ordered out of the car by the
'bandit, known as "Red." . About three,
hours later the sante man is alleged to
have driven to a,gas'oline station at
G'adsltilI,taken albo'ard six gallons of
gasoline, and departed without paying
for it. The station attetedantt, how-
ever, did not inform the police' until
about noon and accordingly did not
give then much chance to pursue the
man, Gads'hill is only about six mile's
from Stratford and a shont d'is'tance
froni *here the traffic officer had
been dumped out of the car,
In the interval arae of the alleged
bandits was making the beast of his
time and reached 'Waterloo. A'bo'ut 4
o'clock the car 'Lamontagne was driv-
ing was spotted by Night Constable
Moreau, of Waterloo, Who pi'cked up
the alleged ban'di't and placed hint in
the cells. The polite were still scour-
ing the district toe Laseeonttagne's• al-
leged companion, who was thought to
be hidden in the dense Ellice swamp
until nightfall. The car he drove Was

Inn loving memory of Lindsay, be-
loved "twin" son of Mr. and Mrs. M.
R. Haney, who passed away July 27th,

Just one year ago to -day,
Since our dear Lindsay went away,
For four .short years .he tarried here,
But we all loved hien, ohl so dear,
Sunshine passes, shadows fall,
L'ove's remembrance outlasts all.
But we will meet': him, some sweet day
Those bright blue eyes, that happy
smile
Will ,greet us on the other shore,
Then that day we'll understand.
-(Sadly ,m'i'ssed by Father, Mother,
and Brothers.
