(Letters)
The Reverend James Robertson to
James Kerr, Union Theological Sem-"
inary, New York City, Oet. 27, 1868: '.
My dear Mr. Kerr: your letter
A
duly to hand and: I was glad of
its good summary of news. I scarcely
thought when I left Canada that Me-
Kiliop would ask for the moderation'
of a call so soon as the 29th of Octo-
ber, yet I am glad 'that they have
I
up their minds. to the matter,
and more especially if they, can se-.
cure the services of Mr. Farries. I
know of no man whose acquaintance
I made in the Seminary who (,s more
capable as a preacher and I kitow but
few men who possess more of the
qualities of a man. He is in every re-
spect a fine fellow. ,Ile is not only a
good preacher, but a man whose
stamp of piety is high: He is more-
over a good scholar and if his health
is spared, he will be sure to wear. If
you get Mr. Farries, there is me dan-
ger of the'McKillop congregation.
Seaforth may get a second Simpson,
but there will be no inclination to
stock to the village, else I am much
mistaken. The desire of your friend,
is •that if such is His will, God. may
send him. .I was to preach for Mr.
Farries three Sabbaths,.but went up
only one. I have taken charge of a
mission in connection with Dr. Hall's
church and I cannot get away on Sab-
bath conveniently. I accordingly sent
Mr. Remick one Sabbath and Mr.
Cowan the other and went the third
myself, getting a person to take my
place here in my absence. Mr. Far -
ries' congregation is not large, but
very interesting:. I was' wont to think
that McKillop paid good attention but
they can scarcely equal Otisville.
They appear to possess considerable
intelligence too. They are very kind.
While I was there they scarcely knew
what to do with me to make me com-
fortable: I was attended like a lord.
They heard Of me through Mr. Far -
ries and told Cowan to send me up
the last day ,if possible, for they wish-
ed to see me. This itself will give
you some 'idea of what they think of
Mr. Farries. He is universally, admir-
ed. They can 'not speak too highly of
him. The attention shown me ,was, I
believe, on account of being his ac
qusintance.
The village is beautifully situat-
ed. I never saw a place since I came
to America in which I would like bet-
ter to five. The seenery is beautiful.
Mr. Farries' brother is living there
and another is coming there. They
are both physicians. ; Mr. Farries is
married to a Lady from Otisvilie, and
xf she is as good as her photograph,
she is beautiful. His name is Francis
W". Farries. I had a letter from Mc-
Lennan a few days ago. He was up
in the neighborhood of Owen Sound.
He was going back to Tiverton again
for a few Sabbaths. Of Crozier I
heard nothing. I saw nothing about
his call. Murray--hasenotwrttteflme-
about his. If he has accepted, he will
not write till after be is settled, like-
ly. I have no other Canadian news
in reference to church matters.
I hope you are to have stated sup-
ply for the winter, or at least till you
find out the issue of your call. The
new lot of probationers will be on
th( it rounds now and you shall have
a better chance. As I told you, I
share the mission in connection with
Dr: Hall's church. I preach for them
on Sabbath evening and visit two af-
ternoons per week and they pay me
$49 per .month. I am engaged if I
wish to continue till the 18th of May.
I am not enure yet whether I shall
preach all the time for them, but
likely. I expect that I shall not re-
turn to Canada till after the Assem=
bly' meets here, which is about the
end of May. I shall return likely
about the time the Synod meets if all
things are well.
I have not beard Bucher preach yet.
I have heard Dr. Hall several times;
he •is the best preacher I ever heard,
I think. I do not mean that he is the
ablest thinker, nor the most eloquent
I ever heard. Yet I think he is the
best preacher or the best to expound
God's word, build up God's people and
convince sinners.
But I may have a chance again to
tell you something of New York
preachers. Give my kind regards to
Mrs. K. and the family, your brothers,
etc., old Mr. Grieve's family, not for-
getting Rachel find all friends among
you. Yours truly, James" Robefrtson.

Miss J. Hannah Hodgson to Wm. A.
Kerr, West Park, Cupar -Fife, August
3rd., 1893:
My Dear Cousin William: My
mother asks me to write and thank
you for your nice letter and the photo-
graphs you so kindly sent. We are
glad UncIe,,,Iohn is in his usual health
again; I hope he will keep stronger.
I am afraid my sister has no more
photos just now, but when she gets
any more, she will send you one, I
am sure. I haven't any of mine either
as I haven't had a photograph taken
since I was small. Remember me
kindly to Cousin Aled. I hope he is
Well and liking his new home. We
have been staying for six weeks in
the Highlands with Mrs. Macdonald
and we enjoyed our visit very much
indeed. It is a beautiful place. We
expect her 'here very soon, also my
brother, William, from London. He
will get good fishing as the rain ;has
been coming down in perfect torrents,
so that should please him as he is
very fond of fishing. He had a few
days on Lord Dunborne's part of the
Avon in Hampshire where he was
staying for a. week with a friend, Mr.
Kennard. Tell Uncle John that the
Fifeshire Journal is dead. The Tories
in Fifeshire are a very poor lot to let
their only paper go down. It has been
very poorly conducted for some years;
in fact the people say it has never
been a good paper since the Hodgsons
left it, which is quite' true, it hasn't
been worth reading for years, and
now it has collapsed. My brother
John and his family are all well; we
heard from them, a day or two ago.
There is nothing but strikes here;
some 10,000 miners are out in Fife;
the working man is never pleased un-
less he's striking; in this country
their greed is insatiable. Remember
us all kindly to your mother and all
the others, and Uncle Sandy and
Uncle John. Hoping to hear from you
soon again, I are, your affectionately:
J. Hannah Hodgson.
W. Hodgson to James Kerr, Cupar
Conservative Club, March 8, 1894:
Dear Nephew: I have to thank you
for the photo which 'has just come. I
myself have, fallen in love with the
graceful image in white, while toge-
bher you have now joined our family
party of photos. They will remain
there always. Those which came a
few months ago are highly prized for
theyseemto. group us all together.
I never write letters unless I am forc-
ed and that is the reason I ask you
in my name to thank the others, for
in this manner keeping us in 'memory.
You must really all come over and
see us or will I cross over an¢ see
you? We would have our stories to-
gether at which Uncle 'John would be
an amused hearer. Tell him that in
coming down just now I met the' laird,
who was moderator of the General
Assembly in 1891, who desires to be
remembered to him. We hope he is
well and that the #eongregation is
flourishing. I - seethe laird almost ev-
ery day. Lately he said to me with
grave comedy: "Mr. Hodgson, there's
n'ae preachers like the auld preach-
ers." I believe he is about right there.
He certainly is worth all the minis-
ters here put together. I am sorry to
say your aunt is not very strong and'
has not been outside all whited. I my-
self am also the worse for the wear.
Your cousin in Portsmouth, John
Alexander Hodgson, is a great man in
the naval service there. He is getting
013 .toward the top of the tree. Wil-
liam Earl is industrious and' very suc-
cessful in London and he has a new
book coming out in May. He is re-
markable for he writes to his mother
every day, though where he gets time
to•do it, I don't know. He says in his
letter this morning that he is coming
for a week in Easter. Jessie, in her
beautiful 'home in Balquhidd'ar, Is very
well- That's a place for you all to
come to see. I can promise you a
Highland , welcome in the loveliest
scenery in Scotland, Uncle John will
be interested to know that Jessie does
most of her shopping in Stirling.
There's no place nearer except Cal-
lendar, but Jessie prefers Stirling.

1948, to September 1, 1948.
Under authority of By -Law No. 111 for the Town
of Seaforth, any dogs so found running at large,
contrary to this Proclamation, shall be liable to be

Mayor.
"tree" and hope :ha m'Ay' 'succeed, if
there is Mee information, I' can give
him, a will be Ireet1 sent, I have the.
partial will of Cecilia Campbell, of
Dalziel Park, the will including my
grandfather Campbell ( rour mother's
grandfather), also the tames ,,of our
family who came onthe ;sailing vessel
Ohio in 1850, seven weeks on the
ocean and I was six weeks old.
Uncle William calve.later with his
sons and one, daughter;. Jessie. One
son, a sailor, who, was shipwrecked
and died and buried on the sands at
Singapore and a son who had yellow
fever, never fully recovered and died,
after coming to Milwaukee; one
John, the other Peter, . Archibald D.,
William and Andrew 13.,' who was the
youngest; his mother -died when he
was born.
One brother, Alexander, came with
my father's family with his wife
(Frances) and son, John, Uncle Alex-
ander died not long after coming to
Milwaukee and his wife and son lived
there many years and finally got a
farm out of Milwaukee, somewhere,
never could find out where; and Aunt
Frances died there. But we never
could find out where John's farm was.
or what became of him and his fam-
ily. I remember seeing Aunt Frances
twice and John was at our home once,
but we might find his family through
the Milwaukee Journal. Uncle Wil-
liam's sons and daughters are all
gone; I am the last of the generation
of Campbell cousins. I cannot tell
who Margaret Campbell .could be, for
all I know of them was Mary's, Belle's
and Jane and Jessie. I do know that
your Uncle Archie was married in
Scotland and through mischief was
parted from his wife; and Jane Camp-
bell Hay was in the deep displeasure
of Cousin Archie, a very meddlesome
woman. She visited her brother, A.
11 in Milwaukee and caused great un-
happiness while in this country, to
such an extent that her brother was
sorry he sent money for her to come
to America.
I know dear Archie, your uncle, had
a sore heart in Scotiand and didn't
of course deserve it. He had my es-
teem and sympathy. Grandfather
Cam'pbell lived with Mary Campbell
Ferguson, wife of Daniel Ferguson,
after my father left Scotland, and, the
same Jane C. Hay got around him and
finally wheedled his money nearly all.
away, so that Dan Ferguson was put
to his care for G. F. Only for the
hotel on Princess Street, Edinbor-
ough, which he was left by Cecilia
Campbell daring his life but the up-
keep took the .profit mostly .all out.
So grandfather had very little left.
Jane Hay and husband failed in busi-
ness and she came to ,Daniel Fergu-
son's, and pleaded poverty, and in
sympathy 'he (grandfather) let her
have what he ought to have kept for
himself and the Fergesons.
I saw Daniel Ferguson several times
when in Scotland, a very nice old
man. His wife, Mary, was gone' long
ago, but 1 saw his daughter, Mrs.
Craib, and family; nice people, but
Mrs. Craib and her husband are both
gone some years ago. I visited at
their home. Daniel Ferguson married
again after his wife Mary died. They'i
lived in a small apartment near the
soldiers' barracks in Glasgow. When
I went to see him, and his daughter
told him it was a body come all the
why from America, he thought it was
my mother and got up and' was so
pleased. It seems he used to like my
mother fine, but he was e'en glad to
see just me. He was a spry old man.
He right away sent out for cake and
what do you think but Scotch whis-
key, a thing old folk thought nothing
of among them but of course I tasted
it to please him. Poor old man, I
went to see him again. Mrs. Craib
was a very quiet nice cousin. I liked
them all. Jane Hay was Uncle Wil-
lia,m's eldest daughter; they were left
motherless when young and grew up
(she did) a terrible gossip and mis-
chief -maker and then out here came
to see mother and us. And mother
told her there was no more wicked
thing than a mischief -maker between
a man and his wife. She had done
that with A.D.C. in Milwaukee too
and Rachel his wife. Jane went out
in a rage at mother, but mother kept
her dignity and did not give her a
chance to talk and Archie D. C. had
paid her expenses out here and back.
You never missed her and It's well.
But A. D. and Will and Andrew were
always fine to us. There was a Belle
Campbell lived• with my father,
mother and grandmother and Uncle
Dan when mother lived with them
firat. She married, and went to Aus-
tralia and was never heard from. My
father had his passage taken to Port
Natal, but when tbey heard no word
from Belle and her 'husband and there
was a mutiny there, they changed to
America. I have the passage papers
here now, saw them today. There is
no reed of telling you all this, but
this is partly what I met with in Scot-
land and here in Milwaukee.
I had great respect for my Uncle
William, the only uncle I ever knew,
and for your mother and Archie. I
will send you some lines written on
father by our ons' -time minister, and
on John and mother. You will lino
l's crossed for tis. and all sorts of mis-
takes, perhaps one 79 years old may
be excused. If I live till July 13th, I
will be 80, but some days I feel very
poorly. I see you all yet in mind at
the home: William just a boy yet,
Pete, John and .Tim, and how neat and
trim A. D. C. always looked on his
way to church. My ,brother and him
were alike in form and feature like
brothers, more • than many. I have
some of dear Archie's letters yet
Wishing for me to see (.him) but I
May see him some day ere long. I
Mind Saturday nights when, all the
-family, was around that kitchen table
getting lessees ready for the Sabbath.
It waa`a eight to please the .heart I
think, too, that I could hit a croquet
ball a good straight bat ,yet for the
arches, see, but I sure Italie had a
terrible time bruising ruybcilt ttl% I
wail/ ottae 0,46 ago tltt(Wati .: raft, a.
buggy, had two ribs cracked and
about a year after I was in Scotland
1 had my left ankle broken in the
joint and a foot out of joint at the
same time. I lay eight weeks on my
back. It was done by stepping on a
slippery stey—open steps—my foot
went through and threw me down.
Then of course I was lame for a long
time and even yet there are times
when it bothers me. The doctor that
cared for it told me that it would al-
wayd bother at times. But the get-
ting of my shoulder back in place was
the most terrible pain. The doctors
had to take oft his shoe and put
his heel under my arm and push all
his might to get the joint back in
place. Was getting over that nicely
when I fell off the porch on the cement
walk• and broke the same arm -the
right—and in the hot weather after
that I suffered terribly in the plaster
cast. The heat blistered my arm from
my wrist to my armpit. I got sick
and couldn't rise or eat one morn and
the people caring for me sent for the
doctor and he took the cast off. Oh
what a relief it was; will never be
able to use it as before.
Now I have the passage to Port
Natal and America both here; the
one to Natal was transferred to Amer-
ica. And I have Cecilia Campbell's
will and some other papers of long
ago. Am sorry that some old letters
were destroyed long ago from uncles
in Scotland. I have the will of Cecilia
Campbell of Dalziel Park some where,
I'll hunt it up. I must stop As this
has been written at odd times in a
sort of scattered way. The Camp-
bells, my father's family, had,n_ o sis-
ters, Mr. Reid is in Stevens Point
just' now, will be home Saturday. He
was six years superintendent of
schools and gave it up on account of
his health. Your cousin, Lizzie C.
Reid.
Herbert was six years superintend-
ent of schools for Adams County. An
operation for appendix and afterwards
kidney trouble set in and the constant
riding injured him, so he gave it up.
He is at Stevens Point just now, com-
ing home every Friday, going back
Sunday or Monday. We have a fine
family living in part of the house
and am very comfortable. We own
the farm yet and have ten Holstein
cows on it. A man 011 the faun cares
for them. They are registered cattle,
all doing well; a dog, black and white,
too. and a horse. The land is rented
to a neighbor. The Holsteins are
black and White also. We reserved
the parlor and bedroom down on the
first floor and two rooms upstairs. So
we go there when we like to the old
home whe,Je I lived so many years,
where all our loved ones lived and
died. There Alex and Janet with us
spent a lovely two weeks. How I did
enjoy their company. I'll stop till
next time, L. C. I've written longer
than for months, just a friendly, con-
fidential visit; I do all the talking.
Wish you were near so you could talk
back. If ybu wish photos of father
and mother and John and' I for the
tree, and some of these papers, let
me know. Post -mark: Friendship,
