Proudly identified with the advancement of the Township of Biddulph and of Midlesex ,he is one of the better known men not only of the sesction of this part of , but of the entire Western Ontario peninsula. For the past few years Mr. and Mrs Dagg have been residents of the town of Kincardine ,and left their farm in Biddulph to reside here.
      Now,after a lifetime of noble usefulness in the pioneer upbuilding of his country ,he has a rich fund of stories and tales of pioneer happenings and incidents.Gifted with an excellent and unimpaired memory he delights in entertaining his grandchildren and great grandchildren with the stirring tales of pioneer days.
      Mr. Dagg is a staunch ..cant read...member of the anglican church and an old time conservative. He has been a life long reader of the London Press .
      The union,consumated over three score years ago ,has been blessed with five sons,four daughters,21 grandchildren,and 11 great grandchildren.
