I committed myself to the tender mercies of the Grand Truck Railway ... sweltering under the sun & drought of the driest June ever experience in the interior parts of Canada. My first impression was that the hardwood timber principally composed of Elm, Maple & beech was of immense size. The first named was really tremendous. Some of the sticks are reported to be less then 7 feet in diameter, & as an experienced chopper assured me, that it took a good half of a winter day to lay one of those proud monarchs of the forest "level with the ground". As to the maples I have seen as large in Erin & I am assured, that even some of them as large in Erin & am assured that even some of the elms of that Township, which have long ere now passed into ashes, would have vied in size with the surviving giants of Wawanosh Twp.

Policeman Riley was obliged to handcuff Gifford with his hands behind his back. In the struggle while endeavoring to force some sweet oil down his throat, he knocked the glass containing in into Dr. McLaughlin's face & cut his nose.

Biography, First area school has rich history, summary The driveway to the Grace Lawrence house is flanked by 2 ancient concrete obelisks 28 inches square. The dwelling was built fore 1868 on 1 acre of land at the north west corner of Lot 37, Concession 1, Markham, now 8779 Yonge Street. The lane was beautifully treed with several huge soft Maples, fruit trees, flowers. The grounds were secluded by surrounding lilac hedges. The stable sat on North side beside the drive. Slightly to the east was a roof gambrel roof, banked stable. The house was 2 story frame, 20 feet by 28 feet wide. Two rooms on the main floor, 3 bedrooms upstairs. The floor is wide pine board throughout, low ceilings, making for ease of heating although the drafts through the floors are intense. There was no foundation, the dwelling merely rested on the ground with the result that the winter blasts would balloon the linoleum rug dramatically January nights. The conveniences until the 1950's, were indirect, located in back yard. This then was the private school operated by Grace Lawrence & the home she raised her family of four. The land was beautifully treed with several huge soft Maples, some ancient fruit trees & a large front lawn when in 1934. The grounds were secluded by surrounding lilac hedges. Yonge Street had very light traffic & at the front walk was flanked by several stately old Mock Orange bushes. There were Orange Lily & Periwinkle gardens thriving in the dappled shade & a feeling of serenity cast its spell over this relic of the past. Grace was born in Ireland & her father lived in Oro Twp, Simcoe Co., Ontario. Charles E Lawrence owned a 200 acre farm half a mile north of the present Hillcrest Mall (2011), as well as 2 mills and a carding factory, & other property near Stouffville. Grace was his second wife. At the time of their marriage his youngest daughter was three years old. Grace & Charles had 5 children. George, her third child died on Christmas day 1860. C E Lawrence died Dec 1868 when their son John was three years old. Charles left Grace the use of his house, but she preferred to purchase a house of her own where she opened a private school.

Danger every where threatened both man & beast. With The Wolves: At night the little stock had to be rounded up & given whatever protections available & event hay many times proved inadequate. On occasion the cow had been stabled in the cabin. Dr R W Bruels of Sharon tells that he well remembers listening to his grandfather, Rodney Willson, tell of the wolves howling about the village. Bears were a constant problem, in addition to stealing from the stock they entered the grain fields & bunching the heads of wheat in their paws they feasted at the expense of the farmer. Each of these losses was very serious. [published 1951.6.21] Dr. Bruels further described early difficulties. His grandfather often had told him of going with his father John Willson, when each took a go of gain to Hogg's mill & had it ground into flour which they brougth back on horseback. He quotes his grandfather that in those earliest days at Sharon they placed their grain in the follow stump of a tree & pounded it to meal by a stone attached to a sapling.

Obituary FRANK E. WALKER DIES IN LONDON, ENGLAND Sad News Reaches Hamilton at Early Hour To-Day Left the City 3 Weeks Ago on a Health Trip A cable message this morning from London, England briefly announced the death in that city of Frank. E. Walker, the well-known furniture dealer. It is safe to say that no similar announcement has created such wide-spread feeling of genuine sorrow among the people of Hamilton in many years. 3 weeks ago, Mr. Walker, accompanied by his daughter, Ethel sailed for the old country on an extended pleasure trip. Mr. Walker's health, which had not been of the best for a long time, was the primary cause of the tour, & when he left the city it was with the strong hope that he would be able to retire in a short time in all his old time vigor. But it was not to be so. For a good many years Frank E. Walker has been one of the prominent businessmen of Hamilton. Born in Hamilton (Canada West), he started his business career in this city in a very small way, & by his sterling businessabilty, built up a trade that was second to none in the country. Always a public spirited man, he gave not only his money, but also his time & brain to the betterment of conditions, particular & general, in connection with the city & citizens. As a member of the city council, as a member & chairman of the board of public parks commissioners, as a member of the board of license commissioners, & in many less public positions of trust in which he had been placed at carious times, he did good service, sparing himself at no point where the public good was at stake. In many a Hamilton home where Mr. Walker's generous hand had done good by stealth there will be mourning to-day & true-hearted sympathy for the bereaved family. Some years ago Mr. Walker's health began to fail & there were times when had it been another man, a collapse might have occurred. But his indomitable will & cheery disposition carried him through & his many friends had hoped that he would yet be able to finally overcome his infirmities. Mr. Walker was in his 52 year. He leaves to mourn his death a widow, a son - Frank Jr., who is manager of his father's business - & a daughter - Miss Ethel - who accompanied her father on his present trip. A brother - Raymond - lives in Toronto, & there are 2 sisters - Mrs. T. S. Gosnell of Winnipeg, & Mrs. G. L. Johnson, of this city. The deceased was always a prominent worker in the ranks of the Conservative party, & was a member of the Masonic order, Foresters, & many other fraternal organizations. His son, who received the sad message this morning, has cabled the firm's London banker's to take charge of the remains & have them prepared for shipment to Hamilton at once. Until a reply is received to this message no arrangement can be made for the funeral. The Hamilton Spectator, September 26, 1907. - - -	WALKER, Frank Edmonson Sr. (I281)

A bunch of green wings had just flashed by, tipping the tops of the rice with their speckled bellies almost, when Counsman held up his hand as an admonitory signal to his companion & coming whence the 2 silent hunters could not determine, was a cry so wild & strange, yet rising as the blast of a silvery horn, that made them peer into each other's faces with much concern. Again it came, a long drawn, sonorous grrrrrrrroooo & thinking probably it might be as well to prosecute their investigation from a secret vantage point, the 2 duck hunters crouched low among the glass & then between the interstices, searched the heavens with eager eyes. The strange sound seem to come from somewhere above, but it was only after it was sounded again & again they scrutinized every league of the firmament in every direction, are they rewarded with the sight of the authors those wild notes. Nor in the north, against the overarching blue, they caught sight of four wisps of down, like snatches of snow against the sky. Instinctively chew that it was from these that ringing ghostly grrrrrrrroooo emanated. Closer the four objects came, enlarging as they came, until the languid motion of their huge sails was visible & their cries growing nearer & more penetrating, the hunters were enabled to make out that they were some species of a rare bird & simultaneously they exclaimed, Swan! again come that far-reaching tremolo & the excited hunters saw the four huge bird set their wants in a line of bluish gray against the sky drift toward them. When they had settled to where the old sandhill Thunderbird, formed a background & those wild tones sounded clearer & more searching hey grasped their guns with tighter grip, though the birds were yet full a mile away. No other bird has the pomp & ceremony about his movements when the 4 big white cranes, instead of coming down, swept round the lonely amphitheater in miles of spiral, Counsman & Teetzel gave up all hope of getting a short. But closer & closer each wind brought them in nearer the tule blind & it was evident that the birds were circling the lake only as a precautionary maneuver before alighting. They had certainly been trained in an efficient school They knew the danger hidden within rice clump & tules & were determined to take no undue risk. what their keep eyes failed to note, even from their lofty aerial pathway was underserving of suspicion, when it came time to drop their long, blackish, slate colored legs & settle in the shallow waters or some jutting point. thoroughly hidden beneath the arching rushes the 2 hunters, while it seemed ages, had but a brief time to wait & the birds drew thrillingly near. Four monster birds, thee times as big as the biggest Canada goose, pouring a flood of the most are reaching sound that rolls from a living throat, were wheeling & sheering above the, with the sun's rays glancing from their dagger beaks & widely waving wings. both gunners hat their nerve to the last & at the first crack of one of those good old shells, one came whirling down almost upon Teetzel's head & as the flame spouted upward from Counsman's gun another left his 2 mates & fell into the rushes & the other pair screaming affrightedly, vanished fading over old Thunderbird's frowning brow.

At what time he or his wife died I have no knowledge, but always understood that were buried in the old burying ground near the big white oak tree on Haley Berry's farm, opposite the present cemetery grounds. Of his sons, John, Jr. & James, I was told by my father that he always understood they sympathized with the British in the time of the Revolutionary War, & moved to Canada, & that he remembered one of their descendants being back in these parts since that time.* The other son, Samuel, settled on part of the original tract of land & became the progenitor of our branch of the Willson family.

James Bristow, 1903. . 1917 Aug 24 - Obituary: Death of Evi A. Willson - A sufferer from rheumatism for a number of years, Evi A. Willson, one of the oldest residents of the Borough of Sussex, succumbed last Thursday night from a complication of other ailments which had confined him to his bed for the past month. He was a descendant of one of the earlier settlers of Wantage Township. Mr. Willson was a son of Asa Willson Jr. & Elizabeth Adams Willson & was born February 18, 1836, at Beaver Brook Farm, in Wantage township, the family homestead which has been owned by the Willson family for seven generations. John Willson, the head of the family, purchased the land in its wild state from the Livingstons, the original proprietors, in 1751. Evi A. was the third of six children, three boys & three girls, all of whom he survived. He attended the home district school & later the select schools of William Rankin & Ashbel Farrand, in Deckertown, now Sussex. After quitting school he taught one season at Plumsock, boarding among his employers & receiving $16 a month for his services, & one season in the Pond school, his home district, boarding himself at home & receiving $20 a month, which was considered extra good wages in those days. He then assisted his father on the farm until December 18, 1867, when he was married by Rev. Daniel T. Hill, to Delia E. Cox, second daughter of James & Sarah Jane Cox. His father moved into another house & the son worked the farm on shares until his father's death, after which he operated the farm personally until 1891, when on account of rheumatic trouble he was compelled to relinquish active work & bought the Amos Munson homestead property, in this town, on which he built a substantial home & resided there until his death. On June 6, 1869, he was baptized into the fellowship of the First Baptist Church of Wantage & nearly ever since has been one of its deacons & trustees & for many years its treasurer. He was always a liberal supporter & deeply interested in the welfare of the church. When a young man Mr. Willson was elected a member of the Wantage Township Committee & served on that board for a number of years with such men as Madison Coykendall, Jonathan Coykendall, William Elston, George McBride, Lebeus Martin, Nicholas Cox, Peter Roy, Andrew Roy, Isaac Cole, Isaac P. Mead, James A. Buckley, Jonathan S. DeWitt, Asa Havens & George O. Wilson, with William T. Wright, George W. Coe & Humphrey Martin as town clerks, all of whom preceded him to the great beyond. As a chosen freeholder he represented his township at the county seat for 3years & was one of the superintendents of the alms house during that time. It was largely through his efforts that the new road leading from Three Bridges to Martin's Station, which has been such a great benefit to the traveling public, was laid out & built. He was one of those active in organizing the Deckertown Union Cemetery Association, more generally known as the Papkating Cemetery, & was its president & superintendent for many years. He was "raised" in Samaritan Lodge No. 98, F.& A.M., December 10, 1875, & was its oldest living past master, having served as worshipful master in 1887. Besides his widow, he is survived by one daughter, Miss Madge E. Willson, at home & one son, J. Merritt Willson, of Sussex. He also leaves three grandchildren, Miss Dorothy B. Lawrence, of Butler, daughter of George S. & the late Minnie Willson Lawrence; N. DeWitt Willson & M. Lawrence Willson, both of Sussex. Funeral services were held at the home on Hamburg avenue Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, conducted by Rev. C.H. Rannels, pastor of the Sussex Baptist Church. The past masters of Samaritan Lodge attended in a body. Interment was in the Deckertown Union Cemetery. Ref: Sussex Independent Newspaper. - - -	WILLSON, Evi Adams (I627)
