NO. 9, McKILGOP
Interesting History Of the
Schoolboy Spot We
Ne'er Forget.
WRITTEN BY OLDTIMEk
• Oldeimer recently visited the old
school ground$ in, No. 9, McKillop—
"the •'schoolboy spot we neer forget,
though.. there %e::are forgot."
. These grounds consist of half an
acre of. land on the south side of the
14th Concession ' line, about three'
mi'le's, east of the old • "gravel road,
now a paved bighwaye The site' is- a
rectangle, almost forming . a square,
whose length of 150 feet .from east to
west 'just. slightly exceeds its width'
from north to' south. This site was
originally part of the farm of the
late Thomas Davidson, Sr., a pioneer.
who settled on the 12th Concession of
McKillop in 1857, and whose '100 -acre'
farm extended riglit through from -the
12th to the 14th Concession line.
Although I have not had: a, chance
to check up -on the official recgrds_
I believe this school districtwas es-
t'aklished in the middle sixties as part
of` •tite I7pper Canada school :system.
The first school buildingthere was a
dog structure, about 30 feet by. 40 feet
with gable roof and three double -sash
windows os each side. The school
was built close to the road, and faced
•east and had a porch over -"the en-
trance at the east end. The ggrounds,
were enclosed bya board fence of
attractive design,with two' gates on
. the side next the road.. The second
-school, a. •well-planned frame building
not . lacking 'in architectural beauty,
with, large class room, high ceiling,
boys' and girls' cloak. rooms, teach-
er's room, bell tower;,ane always kept'
painted •.a light grey,' and ,occupying
the same place, on the grounds as the
present buildingti • was opened after
midsummer in 1882, .and used for
nearly half, a century.. •The present
Wick . building replacing • the frame
school wasopened in 1926. -
In clearing up his land Mr. David -
.son left about 12 acres or, inure of the
original bush at the baek of his farm
on the 14th concession,..and this bush
came, right up to the 'school .grounds
on the east and eouth. As far as I
can •recoilict Na. 9, 'MOKtllop,-•.1s the
only school in the township that has
enjoyed the benefits and beauty of
Such a• •situation during all the years
from pioneer times down to the pres-
ent day. Thomas Davidson, tIae Scot-
tish pioneer, died long ago (tho'u'gh
some of his descendants, 1 am glad to
know, are still living on the • 12th -Con-
cession), and the ownership of his old
farm has passed into other hands, but
the bush 'surrounding the school
grounds (or part of it) is still there.
In recent years• •eattle. have been al-
lowed to run through it, and that has

MARCH SESSION
TUESDAY EVENING
• The -March .session, of the Seaforth
town council was held in the council
c4amber, • Town Hall, on Tutie6.d'ay eve-
ning. Mayor J.. J. Cluff presided,,, and
others in attendance were Reeve J.
Daly and Councillors Keating,
Sills, Hudson, Parke and) .Hubert.
Keith Sharpe, representing the
Band, asked °for a grant of $350,
else. that the small storeroom un er
the, stairs used by the band as a uni-
form room, be cleaned out and gut, in•
proper condition. •
Council . asked for a written request
for the Rands grant and an inventory'
of all equipment, and the matter .of
the storeroom was ,left in the hands
of the Property committee with power
to Act._
In presenting the: report of the Fire
and Water. Committee, Councillor R;
G. Parke outlined, the result of the
Meeting' his committee had had with
the Fire 'BS'tgade. He said the mem-
bers were not in, favor of having a
paid brigade, or of redcucing the• num-
ber of members, or of making any
change in the, present set-up. They,
however, asked for an increase of $100
in the annual grant made the brigade.
They suggested that instead. of pur=
chasing a new heavy . extension, 'lad-
der, , two 48 -foot extension ladders
would be of more use and greater con-
venience, and .would be much less ex-
pensive than one of the heavy type.
'Phe brigade also asked that the town'
implements and tools now stared in
the fire hall, be 'all cleaned out, and
that . in future, the fire :hall. be used•'•
exclusively :for fire fighting equip-
ment.
Councillor •F. S:, Sills outlined tli'e-
proposed new High School Area as it
affected Seaforth,' and said the 'coun-
cil and ratepayers were invited to" a
public meeting in Seaforth .on Tues-
day, ; March • 19th, at 3 o'clock, when
these mutters would be discussed:.

ling, to build a sun porch on her resi-
dence on George Street, at a cost 'of
