then run to catch up to the wagon.
There was., only 400 acres re-
served for a mill site by the Can-
ada Company on either side of a
creek and gully, some nine miles
south of Goderich on the l3ayfield.
Road, Thomas Elliott, Sr., took
up the north 200 acres which he
later srld to John Naftel and lo-
cated on the 7th concession, Cal
borne Township with his . sons,
George and William.
Thomas Watt, Jr., took up the
south 200 acres. He built a log
house on lot 34, 2nd concession,
Goderich Township. He set to
work to clear his land. The road
to Goderich had been chopped off
in 183$ but people still went by
canoe (a dug out log) or by trail
through the bush for supplies, The
only one who owned a vehicle (a
two-wheeled cart) at that tine
was Tames Walls. Thomas Elliott
took a small load• of oats to Code-
rich to raise money for his taxes,
the first year he was doing for
himself (as recorded in an inter-
view with the Goderich Signal.)
It was threshed with the poverty
stick, Ile went around the little
'town but the best offer be could
get was ten cents a bushel (half
cash, half credit). Finally the
tavern-keeper, Donagh, took the
load at, a York shilling a bushel
cash. The taxes amounted to a
dollar and a half..
Fifty cents a day was consider-
ed good wages for a man 'then.
And at that time there was often
a better,market for grain in Bay-
field . than Goderich—as . much as
five cents a bushel for., wheat. at
times.
In 1850, Thomas Elliott . was.
married to Miss Jane Currie. in
Goderich. The daughter of Pat-
rick Currie, she had been' born at
Little York. And they set up
house-keeping on the groom's
farm where they out their
days, raising a family of nine
daughters and one son:
Mrs,. Elliott died April 19, 1910.
Thomai'Elliott who had served on
the- Sehd-ol board for SS 8, Code-
rich Township, was also •a staunch
Orangeman. He attended a.. Walk
when he was 93 years, of age and
died October 3, 1918, in .his 96th
year. The only two mernbers.i of
their family left are Miss Frances_
Elliott and William. J. Elliott who
haye had- the Memorial window
installed at the faMily pew in
Trinity Church since the erection
of that edifice.
Those who have gone on to a
higher Service are: Rebecca, Jan-
uary .1941; Elizabeth,- 1940; Car-
oline,' 1942; Jane Ann, August 31,
1915;' Margaret, 1952; Mary (Mrs.
Alexander Mitchell), May 8, 19531
Sarah, 1950; Emily, 1951, and
Mrs. William J. Elliott (Charlotte.

As long as I live, I will cherish

His loss a lifetime regret.'7'
