HISTORICAL SOCIETY Bayfield Historical Society held their regular meeting on Monday evening, with a real good turnout. The Society dec- ided to purchase another 500 hasty notes to sell as the present supply is almost depleted. Mrs. Leroy Poth spoke of her Committee's work at the Cemet- ery; gathering names, dates and old verses off the Tombstones. The work has been completed in rough form and is being typed and compiled for the Archives Room. A discussion on Historical pain. phlets of the Village ensued and suggestions for a project for next summer were discussed. Mrs. Florrie Oddleifson kindly consent- ed to do a mock-up place mat with drawings of scenes and hist- orical buildings in the Village. This will be viewed at the next meeting. Reprints of Early Canadian History by Catherine Parr Traill was the topic of the evening and it was rioted that Mrs. Traill was a trained botanist who came to Canada from England and settled here. She felt that there was so little botany in the text books for study by school child- ren that she decided to write books on the subject to further their interest in nature. She 1<new that the early settlers were very conscious of the beauty around them and they realized the great value of the herbs and roots for medicinal purposes as well as using them to dye their clothing. In 1868 with the help of Mrs. Fitzgibbon, Mrs. Traill wrote the books and Mrs. Fitzgibbon did the illustrations. Mrs. Traill left two books entitled "Backwoods of Canada" and Canadian Settlers Guide" which are especially interesting and most informative. Mrs. A.S. Morton; chairman of the Society, remarked that years ago, with books at a prem- ium, each household probably had no more than three in their possession, and they would most likely be the Bible; a Herbal and a Cook Book, which contained the use of herbs and dying. A delicious lunch was served by the committee in charge , while the gathering viewed and com- mented on the interesting displ- ay and thanked the DuBoulay's for their generosity in bringing nature closer to the people.
