Besis of the narrative i
four leisurely journeys cover-
ing major points of interest in
the two cettnties. A map out,-
lining the trips accompanies
descriptions of what may be
seen.
Sketches of noteworthy build-
Inge throughout the counties
provide readers with architec-
tural highlights to look for,
The book was compiled by
Anthony L. Kearsley„ head of
the English department of a
Stratford high school and a
well-known classic city writer.
The sketches, were prepared by
architect Jelin Martin,
Mr. .Kearsley provides a brief
general history of the area be-
fore setting put on the tours
with Mr. Martin's keen archi-
tectural eye. The history fea-
tures the efforts of Galt, Dun-
.lop and Van Egmond in the
enacla Company'sdevelopment
of the Huron Tract.
Explaining the architectural
background of the area, the
authors note that the hand-
picked settlers brought exper-
ience and skill with them.
"Every gentleman's libraryin-
eluded books on architectural
style, such as Thomas Lang-
ley's 'System of Proportions'.
Industrious settlers carried
with them such handy pocket
books as Langley's 'Builder's
Directory', in which the pre-
face says:
"A treasury of the orders
of Greek and Gothic made easy
. written for gentlemen
delighting in true architecture
and for masters and work to
draw from and work after.
"Many brought with them rich
personal contact with the build-
ings of Wren, the Adam broth-
ers, Jones, Gibb, Colen Camp=
bell, Halfpenny, Bullfinch and
McIntyre, whose collective
work produced styles not yet
surpassed",
Canada, Company names in the
townships; Downie, Planshard,
usborne, Stephen, liay,Stanley;
Ociderich, It is a quiet run, and
has many stops of special inter-
est,
After coming through Awn-
ten, Science lu ll and Elirpville,
the authors arrive at CentraHa
with the following comments
and sketches;
"The church at Centralia iS
in 'Carpenters' Gothic', a style
remembered from the old land,
not in the vernacelar, Its tower
is delightfully designed.
"At Crediton, along the fine
maple lined street, is the oc-
casional house of patterned
brick work, and a noteworthy
small red brick store. Grand
Bend, on the historic Aux Sables
River, is now a crowded resort
catering fully to the modern
teens.
"Exeter, settled in 1830 by
James and Jane Willis, has
some fine buildings of early
origin, several in yellow brick
of indigenous clay. Others simi-
lar appear on the outskirts of
Hensall, settled in the 1850's.

Grass" tour of the southern half
of Perth county. Particularly
noted at Kirkton is a store-
keeper whose memory is being
enshrined by the erection of an
historical plaque Sunday:
"Eaton's of Canada, one of
the country's great companies,
had its humble but industrious
beginnings in the village of
Kirkton. The village was named
for Alexander Kirk and his
brothers. It was here that Ti-
mothy Eaton opened a general
store and "packed" his goods
out to the settlers. Thence he
moved to Toronto and founded
the great company of his name.

"North and then west to Staf-
fa, we enter the township of Bib-
bert, relatively late in its de-
velopment, The survey of Con-
cession 1 was made in 182e, of
2 and 3 in 1832, and the whole
completed in 1835 by Macdon-
ald. Yet in 1844 there were only
324 inhabitants and in 1850
still only 695. Even so, it is ex-
cellent farm land, undulating
amid small hills. This area was
settled almost entirely by the
British: Irish in the northwest,
English and Scots in the south-
west, mainly Scots in the south-
east, English and Germans in
the northeast. Now's The Time To Start Fall Sewing

"At Kippen, settled about
1848, there remains intact a
blacksmith's shop, very rare
today. The well proportioned
hotel at Kippen, almost certain-
ly built for the Canada Company
is typical of the old coaching
inns, which were later •super-
seded by the railway hotels,
functional one-night stopovers
for drummers and salesmen,
(A loghouse at Varna, de-
scribed as "the true symbol of
early settlement" is featured in
a color painting.)
"Varna, settled in 1854 and
named for a Crimean War vic-
tory, is a lovely quiet village
at the centre of an area full of
historical material. There is an
early log house. In the village
also note the "saltbox" and one
of the better colonial homes
complete, a good example of
design and woodworkt In the
churchyard next door is a small
memorial group. "Robert Donkin was the first
settler, erecting a log tavern
on lot 16, Concession 1. In his
History of Perth County, John-
son records the names of many
early settlers and officers of
the township, amongst the
earliest being Fox, McGoey,
Oughton, Maughan,
Tuffin, Drake, Worden, Hotham;
Weese, Feeney, Norris, Colqu-
houn, Miller, and Wood. After
' 1851, settlement became more
rapid and was complete by 1857.

SURPRISE, DELIGHT
Of the architecture in Huron
and Perth, the booklet notes:
"Surprise and delight await
all those who, rambling through
the village streets . ,, see
the direct influence on all that
richness in a columned porch,
a dentilled verge, a georgian
front, a Gothic window, even
an old English garden bond in
brick.
"Rigours of winter soon re-
duced the size of elegant and
lofty rooms, but the influence
of the classic styles remained
in smaller but beautiful houses
built as late as 1870, with sym-
metry of proportion, quoined
corners, shuttered windows of
12 lights, and delightful dor-
mers breaker an otherwise se-
verity of line."
"Hayfield is one of the most
attractive villages in the area.
The townsite wasfirstpurchas-
ed by Baron de Tuyle, who never
came to Canada to see the town
he created. Settlement began
about 1830 and there are many
early houses in this area with
fine views of Lake Huron. .
