BY W. J. Edmunds W the Toronto
Saturday Night)
To read about the pioneer days of the
Province of Ontario is an interesting pas-
inte. But to sit face to face with a man
, . ,
Nho can from ectual experience recall
.
hose pioneer days is still more interesting.
.
'
.4ot only does the latter method give the
iuman touch
. , to the story, but it .enables.
me to vizualize more clearly and realize
tQre clearly the conditions obtaining in
he long ago. This is what I 'had tliA
Aeasure of doing the other day for the
ipace of about three hours,
The man who accorded me this pleasure
s Mr. John Crenair of Shakespeare, Ont.,
i village on the Grand Trunk about half
i dozen miles east. -of Stratford, in the
ricinityof which he was born 84 years
tgo, and when that par . t of the province
vas forest primeval in which the wild
I
immal such as bear, wolf,'fox, and bear
ibounded, and Indians roamed at will.
Mr. Crerar is a man of remarkable
I
nemory. Events and circumstances ,sur-
ounding his early days he recalls with
eadiness, while dates slip from his tong e
is if they were but yesterday. There is
eemingly only bout one thing in which
te was personally concerned that he can
iot recall, And that was when he 'was
tolea by a band of Indians. Seeing,
lowever, that be was but one year old
vhen that bappe . ned it can not be attri-
mted to lapse of memory. ,But he
:nows all about it just the same, having
. .
ime and again bad the circumstances re -
I
ailed to him by his parents. .. ,
I
-19 he day I was stolen", exclaimed Mr.
'rerar. "my mother had placed me in a
ap trough such as they_ in those days
,ewedoutoialog, whil.shewas assist-
, operations.
.ig my father in logging
Vben my parents missed me, my
ather, divining' that the band of Ind -
ins lie had seen prowling about had Idd-
,apped me, seizing a gun and gave chase.
Inually coming up' with them, he order -
d them to drop me or he would shoot.
.'hey immediately did as commanded and
leared off as fast as they could travel.
)nly a short time before this a band of
ndians had carried off a fourteen -year-old
,oy, who was never heard of afterwards".
I
Mr. Crerar's parents were among a
umber of SC.7,1 peopie from the coun-
y of Perthshire, who came to Canada in
832 and settled in the township of North
:asthope. Some in the group had to
mve their native place for what in that
ay made them amenable to the law.
)ne, for example, had ventured into the
roods of the neighbouring laird and cut
walkingstick. Another had been guilty
f the more serious offence of killing a
eer, the remains of which had been
3und stewing in a pot in his kitchen,
About the only qualification these early
ettlers had for the pioneer life upon
'
,hich they had been embarked in the,
3en wildi of Canada was an indomitable
611 -power. Of experience they had none,
Why",exclairried Mr.Crerar, referring
) the subject, "practically none of them
new how to cut down a tree You may
ather this from the fact tha; when they
nder(ook to clLar their land it was a
oninion thing to cut a tree all the NNay
ound trusting to their legs to carry them
ut 04danger, when the tree began to
ill. for they bad no idea in what direct-
*
3n it would go. Some of the early
ettlers lost their life on this account.
n fact it Was not until the Accond gener-
'
lion Lame along that the settlement
willy had sufflci6t woodsmen.". Mr.
'rerar's father took tip four hundred acres
f land, of which but two acres were
leaved when the subject, of this sketch ,
ias born, and that was four years after
ae settlement had .begun its existence.
"Cart you recall the time when Indians,
nd wild aninialb were common to your
art of the country?" I ventured during
le Conversation.
-Can I rec,ol h?" replied NIr. Crcrrws
,; he through his head back and gave
cut to a hearty laugh. "Well I should
iy so. Why there wette two tribes in
ut part of-t4w country, alLhough I do not
!rnernber what they ivere, One tribe
,as located north ot the river Nethl while
ic, other was to tht south of that ittleam.
'hey- were not -dwaysi on good terms
ith each other, and I can well remember
three -day's battle which they had on
ie banks of a river near my father's farm.
'his was about 1844, when I was eight
ear.9 of age. From the scene ol that

arnand killed seven sheep, but the brute
-orged itself tosuch an extent that it wa,y
nable, to squeeze its way out k9aill.

'the Hatwver-Wingbam lacrosm match
oft Thursday evening was OL poor one.
The visitors came to* town with blood in
their eyes and the locals, retaliated. Had
the reforeee beeft any good he would have
made the boys. play a clean game. If he
was not paid by Hanover, they owe him
somethir 9, for no man ever worked harder
for a toom. Ile even clapped his hands
when they scored.
However that is no exeuse for tile
Wingbain lads who pelted him with rot-
ten eggi, Mr. C(mmbes was a 1mr sport,
even acknowledged so by members of the
Hanover team,, but the pitellitigof rotten
eggs is a thing that cannot be tolerated
by any town that ,expects to be via"ed
as a sporting centre. F. E'. ,Coombes of
