EARLY HISTORY
OF BRUSSELS.
From the illustrated hist '
crena! atlas of
Huron
county, publiehed by H. Belden
& Co. of Toronto, in 1879, we take the
following early history of the village of
Brussels : Geographically this village is
situated between the townships of Grey
and Morrie, a portion of each being ie.
eluded in its municipal bounds. It in on
the line of the Seaforth and Walkerton
gravel road, being 16 miles North of the
former place and 32 miles South of the
latter. It is a station on the Grey and
Bruce division of the Great Western
Railway, distant from Kincardine, the
nearest port, 39 miles ; from Palmerston,
the junction of the main line. 27 miles ;
and from Toronto (neareet all rail, via
Gaelph), 115 miles. By the nearest
travelled road the distance to Goderioh,
the eoanty town is a fraction over 30
miles.
The Iodation of the place ie a favorable
one, being on the South branch of the
Maitland River, which first tempted
William Ainley, the pioneer of the viii.
age, to eeleat it as hie future home ; the
magnificent water. power and general
favorable surroundings, including a rich
virgin soil, giving him faith is the muni.

place and in the town oft Peterboro';-and
the towoehip, of r allartou and Logan,
in Perth county, he spent the intervening
years till 1852. During thie last named
year he explored variooe parte of the
then new county 0f Huron and ohoee the
spot where he afterwards settled, lived
and died, and which is now the oorpor-
atiou of the village of Braesele, as his
future residence. He effected a small

ed home, coming batik next Spring to
burn off hie clearing and plant some
potatoes, etc„ for future wants. Again
returning to hie home in Logan, he in-
duced a number of his old neighbor, to
a000mpany him to his newly eeleoted
looatiou; which he name in and oaoopied
the lab of November, 1853. Thomas
Halliday had moved in and occupied a
lot on the Morrie side of the road a few
days previously, bet had not got hie
shanty ereotsd, During that Fall nearly
thirty families came in and settled at
lesser or greater distances, but all within
what in the early days wag looked upon
as the acme neighborhood, though Mr.
Ainley and Mr, Halliday were for a long
time the only onos within what is Ehe
present village,
In 1855 or less than two pure atter
the first actual occupation the plane had
enflamed the air of a promising settle•

town plot, naming it after himself, Ainley•
