the other to bring back memories
of my boyhood days of nearly
62 years 'ago. Also the many bud-
dies who, were employed like my-
self and have drifted away to
other lands seeking a more prom-
ising future. A few of them still
remain in this neighbourhood
while others have passed on to
the far beyond.
After a few moments we left

aginations to greet our departure.
We .then continued :on the new
road to the lake bank, where
those many years ago men had
been employed in building a hill

Old Landmark
Sold Locally;
To e Torn Down
One of the oldest buildings in
Zurich., ,the .former Zimmerman
estate, was sold last Wednesday
afternoon to Norman Gascho, who
intends having the old home torn
down. Sale price of the building
and the land, which was disposed
of by public auction, was $840.
According to Mr. Gascho, he will
sell the building, to have it tone
down as soon as passible.
Old-timers in the village say
the old ,property was at one time
a hotel, :although no one is too
sure whether it was once used for
that purpose ,or not. However, it
has been reported the house is at
least 125 year's old.
When the old building is torn a-
way the location is an ideal sport
for a new home. At the present
time Mr. Gascho has not said
as to whither or not he will sell
the land after it has been cleaned
up. In all there are approximately
four acres to the whole property.

A July Stroll
Recently yours truly accompan-
ied by his son Cyrille took a
little stroll on tiie grounds of
St. Joseph The starting point
was from Highway 21 and going
in a westerly direction towards
the lake on a new road opened
in the :fall of 1896. That was
the first work started for the
newly surveyed city by the found-
er N. M. Cantin. Mr. Oantin was
then a young man of 26 years
of age, with a great foresight,
flourishing ideas, and great ambi-
tion to accomplish his plans.
We continued on to about mid-
way to the lake, and then stopped,
looking .towards •the south where
once stood a saw and ,planing mill
where the necessary lumber was
cut, dressed and fitted for build-
ing purposes. Across the gully
was a water darn built to supply
the water for the mil:L On the
north side of the gully a boarding
house was built to accom:adate
the 120 men who were employed
there. We paused for a moment,

deteriorated by the weather
which had played its role, such as
wash outs, growing shrubs, etc.
The 'hill was much in use the
first years of the founding of St.
Joseph. Material was hauled up
from the beach, such as sand,.
stone and at times when 1urber
was shipped in for building purp-
oses. All .of the cartage was not
as to=day, ,by pick-up or dump
truck, but was done by horse
power and all of that material was
hauled up and delivered on dif-
ferent surveyed lots throughout
the intended city. At times as
many as 30 teams were kept
busy. Farmers from around and
further points took advantage to
work in spare time to earn a few
dalliers. In the new roadway, the
sawnvill, the boarding Mouse, and
hill, I pictured many little inci-
dents which had passed some gen-.
erations ago, visualizing our move-
ments, work and other little pranks
played with my buddies.
If permiissable I will come back
next week to resume my little
stroll.
