Correspondence: Assault & Battery, To the Editor of the York Herald Sir, Permit me, through your columns, to say a few words concerning the case of maladministration on the part of your local Magistrates of Richmond Hill: Adult & Battery, Weber Vs. Edwards, before D Bridgford, Esq., on of her Majesty's Justice of the Peace; Robert Marsh, A. C. Lawrence & J D. Duncumb, Esqires, associates - when the following verdict was rendered. After hearing the evidence & duly considering the case, rendered that Charles Edwards to pay a fine of $1 & costs. Signed, D Bridgford, J.P. After all costs were paid, the case was brought before J Duncumb, Mr. Edwards Vs Webster for the same offense, (Assault & Battery) R Marsh, A C Lawrence & D Bridgeford Esq. & Associates. The same witnesses having been sworn as in the former case, with little additional evidence but of no consequence, another verdict was rendered. The following is in the substance: After attentive consideration & hearing of the witnesses for both plaintiff & defendant the case was dismissed, each party to pay their own costs. £1 1s 6d each. Signed, J Duncumb, Marsh Lawrence & D Bridgford. Now, sir how is it possible for a bench of magistrates to sit down & order Edwards to pay a fine of $1 for assault & battery on Webster, when the assault was clearly proven against him & then at the next sitting before J Duncumb dismiss the case, each paying their won costs. I ask J Duncumb or any other of the Magistrates, (or even dare them) to show me how Webster has £1 1s. 6d costs to pay, as all the costs he had were his 2 witnesses & that he paid before either of the cases were tried? or how is it possible for a magistrate to tell how he is going to deal with the case before he hears the evidence, or even expresses himself on the public street how he is going to deal with a case before it comes to court? This, I understand by the Doctor's own language, that he was bound to make Webster pay if in his power. I would only ask, does such sentiments show an unprejudiced mind or not, or is any man fit to deal out justice to the public with such personal feeling? I do not want to offend either of the gentlemen, but I hope they will study their codes of law better & then they will be able to render justice according to the evidence without any personal feeling; not forgetting the rule laid down in holy writ, "Do unto all men as you would that all men should do to you." But I understand the case has been taken to Toronto, to be brought up at the next Quarter Sessions, where, I hope, juice will be done to all parties concerned. Yours truly, Justice.

It was a demonstration to celebrate the second return of Mr. Mackenzie, after expulsion adopted description given by himself in his Sketches. A procession was formed at the Red Lion Inn, on Yonge Street [near Bloor St.] - Price's or Daniel Tier's [Beef Steak & Beer House] where the hustings [events] were. In front of it was an immense sleigh belonging to Mr. Montgomery, which was drawn by 4 horses, carried between 20 - 30 men & 2 or 3 Highland pipers. From 50 to 100 sleighs followed, & between 1 - 2000 of the inhabitants. The procession passed by the Government House, from thence to the Parliament House, thence to Mr. Cawthra's, & then to Mr. Mackenzie's own house, giving cheers at each of these places. One of the most singular curiosities of the day." it is added, was a little printing-press, placed on one of the sleighs, warmed by a furnace, on which a couple of boys continued, while moving through the streets, to strike off their New Year's Address, & throw it to the people. Over the press was hoisted a crimson flag, with the motto, 'The Liberty of the Press.' On the apex of Mr. Montgomery's pyramidal sleuth, stood the hero of the day himself, wearing the golden chair & medal presented to him a free hours previously, at the Red Lion.

Notes4: Upon Alexander's death in 1841 & his leaving his estate to several in family but the land was to go to Richard Montgomery. Stillwell & Statira Willson then brought a suit along with others in family against Richard & others concerned. Toronto History: . On July 30, 1793, Lieutenant-Governor Simcoe landed at Toronto Bay to supervise the planing of a garrison & town. Thus the arrival of the Montgomery family in 1798 (as well as the Marsh family) was not coincidental, but part of the general shift of population. In the fall of 1798 Alexander Jr., with his family, moved to Toronto, then known as Little York. Statira Montgomery Dodge, writing for her mother, Sarah Montgomery Marsh, claims that Alexander Montgomery Jr. was a good friend of the governor. When the Montgomery's arrived, the town had approximately 250 people. Ironically, York was largely settled by Americans. Most of these Loyalist Americans settled in farming townships on Yonge Street. The first record we have of the family is in1804 in March of that year their daughter, Sarah married William Marsh Jr., who was employed as a blacksmith in his father's shop on Yonge St. In 1812 Alexander & his son John managed to find themselves in the thick of the war with the Americans. At the time they were in Kingston bringing provisions by boat when they spotted the American invasion fleet. In an effort to warn Toronto of the impending invasion, John Montgomery along with his brother-in-law William Hill & other men began a forced march of 65 miles to reach the town before the enemy. . 1813 April 27, a strong American force raided the town. The British retreated to Kingston & in the next few days the public buildings were looted & the Parliament Buildings were burned. Thus, records that might fill in the details of kinsman's life were lost. . 1820 Alexander & his son, John, built a tavern on the east side of Yonge St. near Finch Ave. This was a two story frame building & it was called, the Bird in Hand". . 1827 - A heated disagreement between father & son resulted in the building being cut in half, literally! From top to bottom & front to back, the building was sawed in half & John retained the southern half as an inn. The argument father & son had may have been political. Initially Alexander belonged to the old guard conservative faction &, John Montgomery became associated with the liberal left wing of the day. Later the 2 reconciled their differences but another son, Alexander III, split with the family over these disputes. . 1837 Toronto City Directory, Taverns: Yonge Street Road, commencing new Montgomery's Tavern to the end of the Township, 1st Con.

Samuel OSBORN, a gallant & accomplished officer in the British navy. His grandfather & eldest brother, Capt. William OSBORN, were also both officers in the service of his majesty the king of England. * Also his maternal grandfather, for whom he was named, held a captain's commission & was an intimate friend of Gen. BROCK* acted as commissary general, etc., & filled many places of trust. Note3: * John Willson, Esq., UE was a friend of Lieut. Gov. John Graves Simcoe during the the American Revolution. . William OSBORN, the eldest son of Capt. Samuel OSBORN Jr., was promoted to a captaincy very young for bravery during several sharp engagements at sea. Thus by the divine right of inheritance & early associations Mr. John W. OSBORN was fitted for the struggles & difficulties of pioneer life which need a brave heart, untiring devotion, progressive & aggressive, to the principles of right. * Mr. OSBORN's mother was Alice WILSON, the daughter of John WILSON & Rebecca THIXTON, his wife. She was born on Staten Island. She was educated in New York, where the family lived always a part of each year, her father being an officer in the British army, loyal to his king. They left the United States & made a new home in Canada, living sometimes at Halifax, Quebec, Montreal, Canancoqua*, & finally settling down at Toronto, buying land & laying, as they supposed, a permanent foundation for a home.

That my daughter Mary Leonard, the wife of Thomas Leonard then & yet a prisoner & by permission of our Chief Justice go leave to lay her complaint before the Governor & Council. Where I attended with her last Saturday, to my great astonishment to hear arguments that I never suspected to come from the mouths of Freeman much less from those who are chosen Guardians of our Freedom to defend Freeman under his pretense of Martial Law.
