(Continued from last week)
The Gregories above mentioned
were the original builders of the mills
now owned' and carried on by Rock-
ey & Sons, which, by the way, are
among the very best in the country,
driven by four of the most approved
pattern of Leffel wheels, containing
the newest and most labor-saving and
grain -saving machinery, seven run of
stones, and a fall and volume of water
which make it in every way one of
the finest mill properties in Canada.
The capacity of the mill is 250 barrels
diem.
per
Following the advent of the above-
named gentlemen, came others
in
more or less rapid succession; and al-
though Wingham continued to grow

was o

apace,
P
a
even largely of a speculative charact-
er; and it was not till the year 5873
y
1
that the people began to': seriously
consider incorporation as a village.
The ,object was attained in the usual
way, under the General Act, by by-law
of the County Council, during the
above year; and Wingham became a
village on January 1st., 1874, the pop-
ulation at the time being slightly in
advance of 700,
The village records show that' Ben-
jamin Wilson was the first reeve; Dr.
Tamlyn,'H..Davis, George Pettypiece
and T. Gregory were the first council-
lors; and Walter 3. Hayward', was
chosen the first clerk. Mr. Wilson
was' again reeve in'1875, and Henry
Davis in t876; followed' again by Ben-
jamin Wilson in 1877 and also in 1878,
which was' the last year Wingham re-
mained avillage. '
During the previous year (1877) an
effort was made'to incorporate as'. a
town. A special act was prepared
and submitted' to Parliament, but was
defeated by the strenuous opposition
in -
of the inhabitants of Lower Wing -
ham,
ham, who wished to',be•included in the
corporation. The extent of territory
however, (were they included), would.
be greater` than the Municipal Act al-
lows, without leaving out another por-
tion of the present corporation (that
to the northward), which -is looked
upon as much more valuable than, the
low `lands adjacent to the north and
south branches of the Maitland. Hence.
the opposition -the, lower town people
acting on, the dog -in -the -manger prin-
ciple of keeping others out of a good
thing because they could not procure
it for themselves.
When the special' act was defeated,
`the people' went to work with a will
and secured the necessary local legis-
lation in the County Council to en-
able them to incorporate under the
General Act. The various petitions,
resolutions and by-laws on the subject
were duly Prepared, but by an error
of the village clerk, they were for-
warded to the governor-general in-
stead -of the lieutenant -governor' for
his' approval. The governor-general
was at the time absent from the seat
of government; and the delay which'
arose in consequence of the above er-
ror so shortened the time, that the
tree months provided by the Muni-
cipal Act as necessary to intervene be-
tween the date of issuing' of the lieut-
enant -governor's proclamation a n d
the municipal elections was encroach-
ed upon;
ncroached`upon; and thereby the incorpora-
tion was deferred for another year, ex-
cept by the passage of a special act,
which was again prepared, and again
defeated by the :political 'influence of
the people of Lower Wingham
brought to bear against its passage.
Steps were again taken,�however, in
due time, in 1878, to accomplish the
end' sought for, by the beginning -of
the ensuing year, and this time with
better success. The regular petitions,
resolutions, by-laws, etc,, were for-
warded . in the month of July, soon
after the -inid-suininer session of the
County Council; and the proclamation
of the lieutenant -governor incorporat-
ing Wingharn as- a town was in duh
course issued, and bore date the 6=
of October,,1878. The enumeration of
the census preparatory to incorpora-
tion resulted in a return of 2,072 as
the actual 'number' of inhabitants then,
within 'the present limits of the town.
We find the following proclamation.
issued by the clerk of the municipal-
ity, which bears on its face the par-
ticulars and personnel of the new
municipal organization:
