By W. E. Elliott in the London
Free Press
Eighty-five years ago, David
Douglas Wilson had built for
himself and family the biggest
house in Seaforth. The Wilsons
lived there until about 1905,
then sold it to the Southgate
family. In 1928 it was pur-
chased and converted into what
has been Scott Memorial Hospi-
tal. - • .
A new hospital, Seaforth
Community Hospital, was re-
cently completed and was• occu-
pied Sept. 14, leaving the house
.available to be operated as a
nursing 'home, purchased by
Mrs. Jean Henderson.

earlier generation as the Egg
King of Huron, deserves a re-
trospective glance as his for-

IT'S HARD TO FORGIVE
DEAR DORIS Before we
were married- my husband had
an affair with a girl friend of
mine. This was before I met
him. She told me what hap-
pened. Much later, after we
were married, I asked him
about this and he admitted it.
But even up to this day he
swears he was under alcohol.
Will you please tell me if it is
possible for a man who is un-
der the influence of alcohol to
walk two •or three miles, and
do something, and have no re-
collection After?
I have such a hate -in my
heart towards this woman. I
I sure would like to write and
' tell her she was 21 at the time
and she must have known bet-
ter than to throw herself at a
drunk. I am 55 years old. •

DEAR OUT—Yes, people do
have a loss of memory some-
times, when drunk. But haven't
you also got a loss of good
sense, not to put this ancient
incident out of your memory?
The important thing is that
your husband has been good to
you over the years. Youth does
many things it wouldn't dream
of in adult years. •
• If you were to write this wo-
man now, you'd probably re-
gret it, and then have that to
worry about. Stop 'destroying
yourself with needless fretting,
and give your husband the
break of loving him without
reserve.

DEAR DORIS--My husband
of 31 wishes to continue his
education and take a law
course. He was recently dis-
charged from the Air Force f6r
a nervous disorder. The psychia-
trist said he was capable of
doing university work.
We have been told we are
aspiring too high but neither
one of us wants to work at a
low-paying job just for survival.
We have a family of to and
$800 saved up. Are there gov-
ernment loans available, and to
what amount?

His drivers, visiting stores
throughout the county- and dis-
trict, collected eggs in the 30
and 36 -dozen wooden crates of
the time, loaded them on hor,se-
drawn wagons and hauled them
to Wilson's storage plant, a
three-storey brick structure at
the northwest corner of Main
and Goderich Streets.

ness, the article stated, "has
now reached gigantic propor-
tions, shipping something like
a million and a half dozen per
year to New York, Vancouver,

Ambitious
DEAR AMBITIOUS — Well,
my crystal ball says you are
not aspiring too high.- In this
enlightened age, a man's work
should be his fun. It is just as
much misery to under -achieve
as it is to be in the wrong job.
If his dream is to be a law-
yer, and his aptitudes point
that way, more power to him.
The government employment
service will counsel him; the
loans for education (which vary,.
but are generous) will be avail-
able to him. And there are
bursaries as well.
With your, help and his de-
sire, I'd say go to it!

Such great dependence upon
export trade is believed to ac-
count for the virtual collapse
of the business about the turn
of the Century, when both Bri-
tain and the United States im-
posed import duties.
The Huron Atlas of 1878 con-
tains a sketch of two store
fronts, each ' -bearing a sign,
"Huron Egg Emporium," along-
side Wilsorr's residence. This
would be his first house, on
Main Street. The illustration
shows a frame house with front
and side verandahs, three chinit'
neys, an the inevitable picket
fente. Later, this house was
moved in two pieces to make
way for -the stable, a large
building north of the egg stor-
age plant, part of it now incor-
porated in the Seaforth motors
garage. The original structure
suffered fire damage in the mid.,
30s and was reduced on being.
rebuilt. In the basement of
the garage there are still re-
mains of brick and concrete
vats in which, eggs were stored
in a preserving solution,
The larger part of the former
residence is now at the corner
of Helen and James Streets,
and is occupied by D. C. Cornish.
The remainder is located at
Wilson Street.
DEAR DORIS—I am 17, and
have never dated. I have met
'a boy who is five months young-
er than I am. He is one of the
few remaining old-fashidned
gentlemen, which makes my
old-fashioned heart beat a lit-
tle faster.
Is it permissible for me to
ask him to the graduation
dance? How should I go about
it so as not to embarrass him,
or, make him feel -obligated; in
other words, give him a loop-
hole if he is not as interested
as I think?

You might say to him, "I have
two tickets for my graduation
dance. I'd like it very much if
you would be my escort." Be
just as ready for a refusal as
anybody has to be.
Remember that,' while you
would be providing the tickets,

TO ANXIOUS MOTHER—
With the hurt of her previous
marriage, your daughter
couldn't resist the kindness and
love of the man she now lives
with. Humans need love very
badly.
She needs help in seeing what
has happened • to her. Then if
she can still have an anchor in
you, who love her it might be
that she could gradually sum-
mon the moral courage to break
away from what is not right,
and begin a new life on her
own.

Eggs Were not graded in
dose days, but if the Wilson
drivers found a lot of eggs host
yet crated, in a store regularly
selling to Wilson, they would
go to work and candle them for
rejects, fill the crates and leave
for Seaforth.
D. D. Wilson was born June
2, 1839, in North pumfries
Township, and received his ed-
ucation at the public' schools
and Galt Grammar School. He
was an elder for many years

Seaforth and also Sunday School
superintend'ent. In 1859, while
engaged in ,teaching at the
Muth Dumfries school he had
attended as a pupil, he married
Helen Richardson, of Waterloo.
She died in 1885, leaving seven
children. Mr. Wilson six years
later married Annie Duthie, of
Jarvis, Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
Mr. Wilson was reeve of Sea -
forth from 1875, when incor-
poration as a town took place,
until 1890. He declined re-elec-
tion in 1891, but served as
mayor in' 1893-4. . He died in
the early 1930s.
His eldest son, John A. Wil-
son, served as mayor in 1891
and soon afterward was ap-
pointed town clerk, which of-
fice he held until 1934, when
his son in turn was appointed
clerk. Mr. John A. ,Wilson died
in 1954. The son, David H. Wil-
son, who resigned • about five
years ago, continues to reside
in Seaforth.
