2 NOTE Alfred and family moved June 15, 1917 from Rocky Mountain House to Hayn
3 CONC es.
3 CONT (The reason for this move was never fully explained or understood.)
3 CONT Apparently the farm was not supporting the family well enough at this t
3 CONC ime as they leased out the farm to a William Ellenburgh so that Alfred c
3 CONC ould work on the railroad to make some money or a living. They moved to H
3 CONC aynes, where the family lived on the second floor of the railroad stati
3 CONC on. Charlotte, after a year or so decided that enough is enough. She al
3 CONC ong with Clara, Constance and Daniel moved back to Rocky Mountain House a
3 CONC nd lived with Robert and Mary Fleming on their homestead just south of t
3 CONC he tracks (CACHE).  Arthur Alfred did not return as he was also working f
3 CONC or the railroad at the time. This is in the same year, 1917, that the S
3 CONC ection House was built and completed in 1918 at the Cache. For some rea
3 CONC son unbeknownst to us they decided to move into the section house, some
3 CONC time in 1920, becoming the tenants of William Paskall. The Brockman fam
3 CONC ily resided on the main floor with their William living on the second f
3 CONC loor. As I (Lloyd) remember the house, it must have been an interesting a
3 CONC rrangement at the time. I wonder how much influence Clara Emma had on t
3 CONC his decision to move in with her future husband. It is further stated t
3 CONC hat the Brockman family moved back to the farm in September of 1920. Sh
3 CONC ortly thereafter Clara and William were married.

3 CONT My first remembrance of our trip was in England when our Mother and Dad t
3 CONC alked about going to Canada as immigrants.  So after preparing and pack
3 CONC ing, we set sail for Canada on the first of April, 1908, leaving from L
3 CONC iverpool and landing in Halifax.  We then traveled by train to Edmonton w
3 CONC here we lived for two years in a two storey house sharing it with Bruce W
3 CONC illiams' (they had the upstairs, we had the downstairs). The Williams' h
3 CONC ad three children, Bruce, Susan and Harold.  Our sister Constance was b
3 CONC orn in Edmonton on August 16, 1908.  Jasper Avenue was just like a plow
3 CONC ed field at that time, very hard and dry.  Arthur and I had our first b
3 CONC usiness venture there selling papers. 	While living in Edmonton Dad met G
3 CONC eorge Thomson and Ves Hayworth who told Dad about Rocky Mountain House, a
3 CONC s they were settled there.  So in the winter of 1910 accompanied by Mr. a
3 CONC nd Mrs. Williams and family, we traveled to Red Deer by train staying a
3 CONC t the Arlington Hotel.  I had a pet cat and Dad had made a cage to carr
3 CONC y it in. The cook at the hotel gave me food for it.  I thought then, an
3 CONC d also now, that he was very king to do that for me.  We waited in Red D
3 CONC eer for Mr. Harry Bertrand to come for us with his double wagon box and s
3 CONC leigh. The next morning real early we all left Red Deer with Harry Bert
3 CONC rand.  He had a very nice team of horses.  There were five adults and s
3 CONC ix children with all the supplies they needed for the journey to keep u
3 CONC s warm as it was rather cold at the time. The first stop we made was in t
3 CONC he Hespero area. We had crossed over the corner of Snake Lake which is n
3 CONC ow Sylvan Lake.  There were a couple more stops before we reached Rocky M
3 CONC ountain House.  The furniture went on with other settler effects.  One o
3 CONC f the other settlers was Mrs. Andy Klein.  The young folk enjoyed the t
3 CONC rip, sometimes running behind the sleigh.Arriving in Rocky Mountain Hou
3 CONC se we stayed at Mr. George Bertrands.  Mrs. Bertrand had supper ready f
3 CONC or us and needless to say, being children, we were hungry.  The William
3 CONC s family stayed on for a while as well.  Ves Hayworth offered us his ca
3 CONC bin to live in while ours was being built.  When our cabin was finished w
3 CONC e chinked it with moss that Arthur and I had pulled off the trees in th
3 CONC e swamp while we stayed at Ves Hayworth 's place.  Then we moved into o
3 CONC ur cabin and Dad took his blanket roll and some food and walked to Laco
3 CONC mbe to work. Lacombe is where Dad met Miss Mabel Fleming who became the f
3 CONC irst school teacher in Rocky Mountain House. While Dad was gone we had s
3 CONC ome really heavy rains. The roof was just sod laid over some poles, so i
3 CONC t rained inside just like outside.  Mother hung her umbrella over her b
3 CONC ed. It filled with water and broke. Oh! the bed sure got wet. We had a v
3 CONC ery nice neighbor, Mrs. Hayworth.  She had three sons, Earl, Ves, and J
3 CONC oel.  Also four daughters, Eva, Alfreda, Elsie and Sylvia.  Mrs. Haywor
3 CONC th drove a team of oxen, named Dime and Andy.  They also gave us milk a
3 CONC nd vegetables that first summer.  Arthur and I would go over almost eve
3 CONC ry day and carry them home.  One morning Ves came over very early and a
3 CONC sked mother if the youngsters were alright, as he had found bear tracks f
3 CONC ollowing us home.  After that we went a little earlier for the milk. We g
3 CONC ot mail about once a week, usually on a Tuesday.  The Post Office, whic
3 CONC h was called Prairie Grange, was on Mr. and Mrs. Scott McKenzie's homes
3 CONC tead, which was situated at the confluence of the Clearwater and Saskat
3 CONC chewan rivers.  The Rocky Mountain House School was named Confluence Sc
3 CONC hool.  It was a nice trip to get the mail when it did not rain. Mr. Geo
3 CONC rge Bertrand used to go to Stauffer about once each week and brought su
3 CONC pplies for the settlers around about.  Later on Mr. Jack Killick starte
3 CONC d a general store across the river on Tom Gray's homestead.  So then wa
3 CONC s needed a way to get across the river.  A ferry was then put in.  The f
3 CONC irst operator was Beryl Gray, Tom Gray's brother. Our mother was one of t
3 CONC hose who crossed on the ferry the first time it crossed the river.  The f
3 CONC erry was operated by cables and the power was the current of the river.  O
3 CONC f course, the trolley cables were anchored in strong cement blocks on e
3 CONC ach side of the river. There was also a cable car so one person at a ti
3 CONC me could cross when the river was too high or too low for the ferry to c
3 CONC ross. 	Later on a school board was formed, and our dad was appointed th
3 CONC e secretary-treasurer.  Miss Fleming was contacted and she consented to b
3 CONC e the first school teacher at Rocky Mountain House.  She was eighteen a
3 CONC t the time.  Soon after this event the two railroads made their appeara
3 CONC nce, which helped to open up the country.  They paralleled close to eac
3 CONC h other and joined just east of the depot.  The A.C.R. built to the bri
3 CONC dge and also constructed the bridge.  The bridge builders camped in ten
3 CONC ts.  Our Dad didn't get work building the bridge, but he mended shoes f
3 CONC or men, and Mother did the laundry and also mended their socks.  The C.
3 CONC N.R. went right through to Nordegg. Soon a tent store was erected by Fr
3 CONC ed Towler and R. Young.  This was known as Tent Town and Rag City.  Lat
3 CONC er when town site(by the way I think the old Bertrand house is still in
3 CONC tact) it was changed to Old Town.  Then Towler and Young built a store o
3 CONC n centre street just south of the Mount View Hotel.  Later on Bob MacLa
3 CONC ren bought them out and opened a hardware store there.  Jack Killick to
3 CONC ok over the groceries and opened just across the street but a little fu
3 CONC rther down.  Kirby & Driscoll store and Mr. William Kirby became the Po
3 CONC stmaster. Later on the Government wanted to up-grade the Beef and Dairy h
3 CONC erds in the area and made one animal available for whosoever desired to u
3 CONC pgrade their stock.  Mr. Scott McKenzie was chosen to handle this.  Abo
3 CONC ut the same time Dad decided to get a bull for our own use, which he di
3 CONC d, a purebred Ayreshire from J.J. Richards at Red Deer. He was shipped t
3 CONC o Rocky Mountain House by train and Arthur and I went to get him.  We t
3 CONC ook the team and went to the spur to unload the animal. It was difficul
3 CONC t as there was no loading dock there.  We had to make him jump out of t
3 CONC he box car, but we did and got him home okay.  His name was Sir Nethera
3 CONC l, 18 month old.  Dad showed him at the exhibition and he took first pr
3 CONC ize.  Of course we were pleased.  Dad had purchased a herd of milk cows f
3 CONC rom Jack Carl, who had come to town to start a milk business.  Dad let h
3 CONC im pasture his cows in our pasture.  Jack batched in a tent down in a g
3 CONC rove of pine trees on the farm.  When it rained or was too cold, Jack w
3 CONC ould not deliver the milk so he decided to sell his herd of cows and Da
3 CONC d bought them.  Then Arthur and I became the milk boy and milk girl.  W
3 CONC ashing milk bottles was quite a chore.  Dad made boxes with dividers in t
3 CONC hem to hold the bottles.  Those boxes had to be cleaned with lye water t
3 CONC o keep them clean.  Dad was careful in these things.  Then included wit
3 CONC h the sale of the milk was silver cos lettuce, radishes and young veget
3 CONC ables.  The hotel used to like to serve them with meals.  The town cont
3 CONC inued to grow and Paul Austin started a milk delivery from across the r
3 CONC iver.  When the ferry was unable to be used, his son and daughter, Paul a
3 CONC nd Mary, carried the milk across the bridge which was a scary job, for s
3 CONC ometimes they were in the middle of the bridge when a freight train cro
3 CONC ssed.  They sat on the edge until the train would pass. Mary said she w
3 CONC as scared.  Later they moved to Australia.  Mr. and Mrs. Austin were fi
3 CONC ne people. I'm not quite sure of the date, but the baby of Eva Haworth a
3 CONC nd George Thomson, a baby girl Virginia, was the first baby buried in t
3 CONC he Pine Grove Cemetery.  Mr. A. Klein performed the ceremony.  The firs
3 CONC t Sunday school  was held at Mr. and Mrs. Slaghts.  They and their daug
3 CONC hter Ruth and Mr. Klein were the teachers.  When the Mission was built, M
3 CONC r. Klein was appointed Sunday School Superintendent.  Before this time p
3 CONC eople used to gather at different homes and hold worship services.  Mr. S
3 CONC tanley Wilson held them for a while. Also in those days there was no bu
3 CONC tcher shop. Dad and George Thomson used to do most of the butchering on G
3 CONC eorge's farm about three miles west and north of our place. There were n
3 CONC owages paid and Dad used to get the tail, tongue, head, heart and liver i
3 CONC n lieu of pay. To help out in this way for the table, Art and I used to s
3 CONC hoot rabbits, prairie chickens and partridges.  We both had our own .22 r
3 CONC ifles. Later Jim Chalmers came and started a butcher shop. Our brother D
3 CONC aniel was born October 12, 1915.  I used to take him around with me whe
3 CONC n I delivered milk or took the team down town.  Sometimes in 1916 or 19
3 CONC 17 Dad started working on the section of the C.N.R. William Paskall was t
3 CONC he foreman.  In the fall of 1917 Dad and the family went to Haynes, liv
3 CONC ing on the back part of the station, which was the living quarters.  Th
3 CONC ere was also an upstairs for the station agent. When an agent was sent t
3 CONC here he was single and he boarded with our family.  Then in the early s
3 CONC ummer Mother wanted to come back to Rocky.  So the packing was done and m
3 CONC oving arrangements made.  Mother, Constance, Daniel and I moved back.  D
3 CONC ad and Arthur stayed working at Haynes.  We moved into a house on the s
3 CONC outh of the tracks.  This house belonged to Mrs. Fleming.  Our house ha
3 CONC d been leased to William Ellenburg and the lease had not yet expired.  W
3 CONC hen the lease expired we moved back to the farm. There were several mov
3 CONC es in those three years. In 1918 the C.N.R. section house was built. In 1
3 CONC 920 the section foreman, William Paskall, being single didn't need the w
3 CONC hole house so Mother, Dad, Constance, Daniel and I moved in.  William P
3 CONC askall boarded with us.  Arthur started working on the railroad August 5
3 CONC , 1918, so he wasn't living with us.  September 1920 we all moved back t
3 CONC o the farm. December 25, 1920 William Paskall and I were married in the P
3 CONC earce Hall which was used for church at that time.  The hall was locate
3 CONC d at the top of the Centre Street hill on the west side of the street.  W
3 CONC e were married by Rev. Mr. McKechnie, who was blind, a very fine man, l
3 CONC oved by all who know him.  Constance, my sister, was bridesmaid and Mr. F
3 CONC red Cummings was our best man. Lucian Simons played the organ.  We rode t
3 CONC o the church in a democrat driven by Mr. Bert Parsons. It was snowing b
3 CONC ut the sun did come out going to the church, also on the way back to th
3 CONC e farm where the reception was held.  We went to the section house afte
3 CONC r the reception, living there for 31 years where we raised our family.

2 NOTE OBITUARY
3 CONT GOODWIN,
3 CONT 	Mrs. Lois Charlotte Goodwin of Edmonton, Alberta, formerly of Ponoka,
3 CONT passed away in Wetaskiwin, Alberta on June 19th, 1988 at the age of 55
3 CONT years.
3 CONT 	Lois was born on April 30th, 1933 in Rocky Mountain House, Alberta.
3 CONT Rocky was the setting for Lois' childhood. She was the 6th daughter
3 CONT and 7th born of 15 children to Clara and William Paskall, an English
3 CONT lady and an Austrian trainman. The CPR train tracks provided hours of
3 CONT enjoyment both as a youngster and a teenager. She had a strong will
3 CONT even as a child. The train trestle was a challenge that she conquered
3 CONT with her trusty bicycle. The tiny house she was raised in had a
3 CONT delicious aroma every Saturday as Lois baked fruit pies to supply the
3 CONT many hungry mouths the following week. She always, from that time on,
3 CONT was an excellent pie maker. With 8-10 brothers and sisters running
3 CONT around at any one time, childhood memories were of busy and often
3 CONT hectic times.
3 CONT 	In her late teens, Lois moved from Rocky Mountain House to Ponoka.
3 CONT Her excellent mathematics ability enabled her to find employment at
3 CONT the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce. There she met Richard Elliot
3 CONT Goodwin, and they were married in November of 1952. The move to the
3 CONT farm began another chapter in Lois' life. She was an excellent cook
3 CONT and the harvest crews loved her cakes and pies. Always a hard worker,
3 CONT she helped in the fields and with the animals as required.
3 CONT 	During her years spent on the farm, Lois' attributes surfaced. As an
3 CONT active member in the community WI, she offered and shared much of her
3 CONT time and talents. Lois could do many things with her hands. She
3 CONT crocheted doilies, knit socks and mitts for the kids, quilted
3 CONT blankets, embroidered pillowcases and did never-ending mending with
3 CONT her singer sewing machine. She created unique clothing for her
3 CONT children that were often the envy of their friends.
3 CONT 	Sweet peas and bleeding hearts were 2 of her favorite garden flowers.
3 CONT There was surely a vase of fragrant pink and purple sweet peas sitting
3 CONT on the kitchen table, and as always, artistically arranged with carrot
3 CONT top greenery. Despite the pigs rooting, the dogs digging, the chickens
3 CONT scratching; and the boys playing football, she received county-wide
3 CONT recognition for her green thumb skills and landscaping efforts. After
3 CONT a full day of working on the farm and caring for 5 children, Lois
3 CONT would hit the couch with a cup of coffee and the TV guide. If the
3 CONT movie was one she had seen, she would read her book. She loved movies
3 CONT and books so much so that there were very few spy thriller novels she
3 CONT hadn't read, and she was always saying that she had already seen that
3 CONT particular movie. Because of Lois' narcolepsy she often had to watch
3 CONT the darn movie 2 or 3 times before she saw it completely from start to
3 CONT finish. Needless to say she could beat anyone at Trivial Pursuit in
3 CONT the entertainment category.
3 CONT 	Lois loved music. She loved to dance. She and Richard frequented many
3 CONT country dances. She even tolerated the piano practicing in the hopes
3 CONT of developing a pianist like Uncle Arthur. Neither of the girls had to
3 CONT do dishes if they would practice that piano for an hour, or hopefully
3 CONT three.
3 CONT 	Sunday mornings were a real treat! The stereo would be blasting out
3 CONT Lois' favorite Charlie Pride singing his spiritual hymns. Lois would
3 CONT be singing, dancing and making pancakes for the lazy crew still in
3 CONT bed. Charlie Pride's music seemed to echo Lois' inner most thoughts
3 CONT and feelings. All who knew her know that Charlie Pride was without
3 CONT question her favorite.
3 CONT 	The Ferrybank Community was very close and a major part of Lois'
3 CONT life. I'm sure many can remember those dances at Homeglen; the nights
3 CONT spent skidooing under a full moon down in the river valleys, the
3 CONT peppermint schnapps, followed by grilled cheese and onion sandwiches
3 CONT and the great debates across the table at the end of the evening.
3 CONT Cards, games and puzzles also occupied Lois' time, and many nights
3 CONT were spent playing bridge, canasta or rumoli. But most times her best
3 CONT hands would be scattered on the floor as her cataplexy caused her to
3 CONT faint from the excitement.
3 CONT 	Over the years, as the children grew older, many special memories can
3 CONT be recalled; the summer Sunday evening weiner roasts, hot dogs,
3 CONT watermelon, rhubarb dipped in sugar and rainbows that the kids would
3 CONT race towards trying to find that elusive pot of gold. They were too
3 CONT young to realize that their pot of gold was sitting right beside them
3 CONT - reminding them to say "please" when they asked for the mustard.
3 CONT 	The family shelled peas by the wash tub full, extracted pails of
3 CONT honey from the hives and plucked many chickens or "pulled tubes" as
3 CONT Wayne would say. Family scrub games were also great although it seemed
3 CONT that Lois' many potential home runs were thwarted as again her
3 CONT excitement often would prevent her from even reaching first base.
3 CONT 	This dynamic lady, while raising her children returned to school to
3 CONT finish her high school education. She attended Ponoka Composite High
3 CONT School and Red Deer College as an adult student at the same time as
3 CONT the kids. Lois fit in and did very well. Her determination and courage
3 CONT assisted her as she realized these goals.
3 CONT 	After completing her high school, Lois returned to work at the bank.
3 CONT She made many friends at the Bank of Commerce and then again at the
3 CONT Treasury Branch. In the 20 years that she spent in the banking
3 CONT business, advancing from teller to assistant accountant to loans
3 CONT officer, she became well known and respected for her thoroughness and
3 CONT special understanding of the financial needs of the farm community.
3 CONT Many customers would ask specifically for Lois, knowing that she would
3 CONT always serve them well. She would often meet with customers outside of
3 CONT normal banking hours to help with their loan applications. As she was
3 CONT a bit of a perfectionist - she often demanded and received the best
3 CONT from people.
3 CONT 	With time Lois became a grandmother. Her five grandchildren will miss
3 CONT her regular visits, always with the package of gum in her purse. She
3 CONT was kind and generous. She stood as a role model for her children -
3 CONT one exemplifying courage, strength, kindness, generosity and
3 CONT integrity.
3 CONT Lois spent most of her adult life struggling and coping with disorders
3 CONT called narcolepsy and cataplexy. Most people do not understand these
3 CONT diseases as they are not well known. Cataplexy would cause Lois to
3 CONT lose control of her muscles when she became too excited, angry, happy
3 CONT or sad. Perhaps her lower lip would quiver and she would close her
3 CONT eyes, or more dramatically, she would appear to faint, collapsing onto
3 CONT the floor. When her children were breaking her figurines, she would
3 CONT become angry and how frustrating to collapse on the floor and not be
3 CONT able to carry through with the intended discipline!  Close friends and
3 CONT family members became very good at catching her as she fell and
3 CONT reviving her with a cold face cloth on her forehead. With time, in an
3 CONT attempt to avoid the situation, Lois learned to suppress her emotions.
3 CONT She loved a good joke but just couldn't let loose with a hearty laugh.
3 CONT She kept a lot of emotion inside. But those close to Lois knew that
3 CONT when she did show any signs of emotion, her feelings were truly
3 CONT genuine. At Christmas time the children would know she liked her gift,
3 CONT especially if she became excited and fainted.
3 CONT 	Narcolepsy also affected Lois' life. Excessive daytime sleepiness
3 CONT caused her to fall asleep at the drop of a hat. As a student in
3 CONT school, she would often fall asleep in class, sometimes leaving
3 CONT classmates and teachers thinking she was lazy. The 20 minute car ride
3 CONT from town to the farm was often interrupted by a stop at the side of
3 CONT the road for a short cat-nap. For many years Lois had both these
3 CONT conditions and doctors were unable to diagnose and adequately treat
3 CONT them.
3 CONT 	Recently Lois found a doctor in Edmonton who was researching sleep
3 CONT disorders at the University of Alberta. She participated in some of
3 CONT their studies. Her condition was never adequately controlled and in
3 CONT fact, the medications that she had been taking for many years made her
3 CONT heart work many times harder than normal. She became very enthusiastic
3 CONT and actively involved with the Canadian Association for Narcolepsy.
3 CONT Against uncommon odds, she had struggled and learned to cope with her
3 CONT disorder.
3 CONT 	Just as Lois learned to cope with narcolepsy, cataplexy, lifes good
3 CONT times and lifes bad times, so will we learn to live without her
3 CONT presence. She will truly be missed and remembered.
3 CONT 	 Lois was predeceased by her father William Paskall, her brothers
3 CONT Keith and Jim and sisters Lynda and Jean. Lois is survived by Deb and
3 CONT husband Bryan Martin, Garth, Larry and wife Bobbi and Wayne all of
3 CONT Ponoka; and Verona of Edmonton. They will miss their mother, and also,
3 CONT so will Richard. Her grandchildren Amy, Joni, Traci, Anthony and Max
3 CONT will miss her ever present love. Her Mother Clara Emma Paskall of
3 CONT Calgary and brothers and sisters Joyce Striegler of Surrey, BC,
3 CONT Alfred, Wayne, and Harold Paskall, Margaret McDonald and Roseanne Mar
3 CONT all of Calgary; Lloyd Paskall of Delta BC; Violet Rees of Ponoka,
3 CONT Sheila Puskas of Saskatoon, Sask. and Dennis Paskall of Brooks all
3 CONT have fond memories of Lois as a mother, daughter, sister and a friend.
3 CONT No one will be able to fill the gap that her death has brought.
3 CONT Friends and acquaintances will surely remember her for years to come.
3 CONT 	Services were held from the Ponoka United Church on Thursday, June
3 CONT 23rd, 1988 at 2:30 P.M. with Reverend Dave Edwards officiating.
3 CONT Cremation. If friends desire memorial tributes may be made to the
3 CONT Canadian Association for Narcolepsy, Box 223, Postal Station S,
3 CONT Toronto Ontario, M5M 4L7.

1 NOTE <b><u>A.A. BROCKMAN</b></u> - by A. Brockman
2 CONT
2 CONT 	My first recollections are the journey from Edmonton to Red Deer with m
2 CONC y parents and sister Clara and Constance, who was only about seven mont
2 CONC hs old at the time.  I was nine at the time and Clara was seven. We wer
2 CONC e accompanied on this journey by Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Williams who had tw
2 CONC o small boys and Susy their daughter.  The boys names were Bruce and Ha
2 CONC rold.  I can recall how excited all us kids were when, arriving in Red D
2 CONC eer on the C.P.R. train we all were taken over to the Arlington Hotel, w
2 CONC here we were to await the arrival of the conveyance which was to take u
2 CONC s to our new home in Rocky Mountain House.  In a day or so that conveya
2 CONC nce arrived in Red Deer. It was an immense double grain box mounted on s
2 CONC leighs, powered by two huge oxen and, Mr. John Bertrand was the owner-d
2 CONC river.  There were five adults and six children, plus the furniture and c
2 CONC hattels of two families to be loaded on this sleigh and believe me it w
2 CONC as piled high.  We left early in the A.M. of Feb. 28th 1910, and we kid
2 CONC s easily out ran theoxen as there was little room for us on the load, s
2 CONC ometimes we would take turns standing on the backs of the sleigh runner
2 CONC s.  The weather was ideal, quite mild, as there was a chinook in progre
2 CONC ss.  Our first overnight places were called stopping houses.  Bright an
2 CONC d early on March the 1st we resumed our journey, I might add here that t
2 CONC here didn't seem to be a defined road, just a trail that meandered over t
2 CONC he ridges, across meadows and through muskegs. There were bare patches o
2 CONC f ground on some of the ridges, and we discovered low bush cranberries t
2 CONC hat were quite edible even after being frozen and thawed.  Late in the e
2 CONC vening of March 1st, we arrived in Beaver Flats where there was another s
2 CONC topping house. This I recall was owned by the McLeods.  Again an early m
2 CONC orning start and, around 3 p.m. we arrived at Mr. Bertrands home which w
2 CONC as situated on the N.W. corner of the original town site.  If I remembe
2 CONC r correctly the Williams family stayed with the Bertrands for a while.  M
2 CONC y father had made arrangements to stay on the Ves. Hayworth homestead w
2 CONC hich was located just across the creek close to where the Cache was loc
2 CONC ated later on. We stayed there for about six weeks, until our log cabin w
2 CONC as built on the homestead site, located one half mile east of the prese
2 CONC nt town site. The logs for that cabin were cut from the area near Mud L
2 CONC ake and they were chinked with moss we kids pulled off the trees in the s
2 CONC wamp. During our stay in the Cache area we met Mr. Fleming, who lived i
2 CONC n a dugout before he built his home and brought his family out. I may a
2 CONC dd here that he had a reputation for witching wells and he witched the w
2 CONC ell that still supplies water to our home.
2 CONT 	Our nearest neighbor, a widow lady, Mrs. Hayworth, lived about three q
2 CONC uarters of a mile north of us. There were three sons, Earl, Ves and Joe
2 CONC l and three daughters, Freda, Elsie and Sylvia.  They were very good to u
2 CONC s, giving us milk some vegetables. It was my job to go over there every d
2 CONC ay to get the milk which I carried in a five pound lard can. It seemed a l
2 CONC ong lonely trip through trees and many times I ran most of the way as I w
2 CONC as afraid of bears that were around and also for the coyotes that made a
2 CONC n ungodly racket.  Mrs. Hayworth drove a team of bulls.  These animals q
2 CONC uite often would trot as fast as a team of horses, goaded on by the sma
2 CONC ll nail inserted in the end of a small pole.  I was always afraid of th
2 CONC ese animals, but was often glad of a ride with her to the Post Office, w
2 CONC hich was called Prairie Grange and was near the confluence of the Clear
2 CONC water and Saskatchewan River on Mr. Scott McKenzie's homestead, which w
2 CONC as about three miles from home.
2 CONT 	Mr. Leslie Slaght owned the homestead immediately north of the McKenzi
2 CONC e place. I can recall how he created quite a furor in the district when h
2 CONC e discovered what he really thought were diamonds in the cliff banks of t
2 CONC he Saskatchewan River, on his homestead.  They turned out to be some ty
2 CONC pe of crystals. The first Sunday school of the area was held in Mr. Sla
2 CONC ght's home. He and his wife and oldest daughter, Ruth were the teachers a
2 CONC nd our first Sunday School picnic was held at the site of the old Hudso
2 CONC n Bay Chimneys, where youngster who didn't participate in the games, hu
2 CONC nted for old arrowheads and beads.
2 CONT 	The nearest store was located at Stauffer. In those days Mr. Bertrand m
2 CONC ade a weekly trip for supplies. The grocery orders accompanied with the r
2 CONC equired money, was taken to his home.  When he returned the packages we
2 CONC re picked up at his home. There was a small fee for this but I am unabl
2 CONC e to recall how much it was. It seems to me it was one dollar a hundred p
2 CONC ound; however I'm not sure about this.The following year Mr. Jack Killi
2 CONC ck open a store on the Tom Gray homestead across the river, which wasn'
2 CONC t so far away.
2 CONT 	The first operator of the river ferry, that I can recall, was Mr. Aust
2 CONC in.  He lived with his wife and two children, Paul and Mae, near the ri
2 CONC ver bank on the west side. They left for Australia in either 1911 or 19
2 CONC 12. Mr. Opie Thompson then took over the operation. It was always an ad
2 CONC venture to cross the river on the ferry, which was propelled by the act
2 CONC ion of the river current, held by an immense cable on which the trolley
2 CONC s rolled. The cable was secured in strong cement abutments embedded on e
2 CONC ach side of the river.  In the early days there was a cable car attachm
2 CONC ent secured to these trolleys which could hold one person. This was the o
2 CONC nly means of crossing the river during the breakup of the ice in the sp
2 CONC ring of during the early winter period before the ice became secure eno
2 CONC ugh to be used as a crossing.  After the railroad bridge was finished t
2 CONC his was used by the settlers to cross during those periods of the year.
2 CONC I can recall how some brave souls used to bumpity bump their old model T
2 CONC 's across the railroad bridge although the railroad company forbid this p
2 CONC ractice, which didn't deter these folks.
2 CONT 	Early in 1911 a school board of trustees was formed and a school was b
2 CONC uilt on the southeast corner of Bruce Williams homestead. Miss Mabel Fl
2 CONC eming, from Lacombe, was the first teacher.  She was paid the fabulous s
2 CONC alary of $50.00 a month. She taught grades one to eight. My father was t
2 CONC he Secretary-Treasurer of the school board. The school was heated by a h
2 CONC uge wood heater which hungrily ate the chunks of tamarack wood that wer
2 CONC e cut and hauled by the various parents.  There were no school buses in t
2 CONC hose days and some of the children came a distance of four of five mile
2 CONC s. Almost everyone used tamarack wood, as it lasted longer than the oth
2 CONC er available woods, and threw more heat.  I was one of the first janito
2 CONC rs of the school.  My duties were to start the early morning fire, clea
2 CONC n the blackboards and sweep up the cloak- and classrooms, of which ther
2 CONC e was only one. The name Confluence School District was taken from the c
2 CONC onfluence of the two rivers.
2 CONT 	I can recall the interest created by the oncoming survey of the two ra
2 CONC ilroad companies, and how all the settlers figures how valuable their p
2 CONC roperties would be with the advent of the railroad.  The A.C.R. (Albert
2 CONC a Central Railway) was a subsidiary of the C.P.R. and they were surveyi
2 CONC ng a right of way commencing from Red Deer. The Canadian Northern were s
2 CONC urveying from Warden Junction, which was five mile south of Stettler on t
2 CONC he old Calgary-Edmonton branch.  They had to come a distance of approxi
2 CONC mately 130 miles, while the A.C.R. had about 60 miles to Rocky.  When t
2 CONC he grade was completed and the track laying commenced, it was a race be
2 CONC tween both companies to see who would arrive first.  The prize for both o
2 CONC f them was to tap the rich Nordegg coal field.  They arrived simultaneo
2 CONC usly at the junction for the two roads, which is roughly about 150 yard
2 CONC s east of where the old depot used to stand.  There were fist fights be
2 CONC tween both construction crews and tempers ran high.  Three nights in a r
2 CONC ow, sections of the track were torn up by opposing crews. However by th
2 CONC e intervention of the Federal and Provincial Governments an agreement w
2 CONC as reached and construction was resumed. The A.C.R. built the steel to t
2 CONC he bridge site, the Y and the sidetracks, known as the C.P.R. Transfer.  T
2 CONC hey also built the bridge to what was known as Lochern, where the water t
2 CONC ank was located. The C.N.R. received running rights over this piece of t
2 CONC rack, then continued on to Nordegg.
2 CONT 	The site of bridge construction crews was on the east side of the rive
2 CONC r, where many tents and shacks were erected for the crews.  It wasn't l
2 CONC ong before enterprising merchants put up stores at the site.  Kirby and D
2 CONC riscoll, I believe, were the first and then it was known as Tent Town.  L
2 CONC ater when the George Bertrand farm was surveyed for a town site and Ten
2 CONC t Town was changed to Old Town.  As most folks are aware, a long, high r
2 CONC amp was required on the west side of the river to attain the level of t
2 CONC he bridge. This was constructed by an enormous amount of fill, which wa
2 CONC s hauled to the site by three small locomotives, known as dinkys. These w
2 CONC ere hauled in from Red Deer on huge sleighs and pulled by three- twelve t
2 CONC eams of mules.  It was really an exciting time.  I can recall that they w
2 CONC ere stuck on the hill in front of my Dad's place, as it wasn't graded a
2 CONC t that time. There was one unfortunate tragedy occurred during construc
2 CONC tion of the bridge. A workman fell off the structure and it was all of t
2 CONC wo years later that this body was recovered on a sandbar about three mi
2 CONC les down river. His body was the first to be interred in Pine Grove Cem
2 CONC etery.  I assisted my Dad in digging that grave.
2 CONT 	Thinking back to that gravel bar reminds me of lignite coal out-croppi
2 CONC ng about three miles down stream from the old ferry site. Homesteaders i
2 CONC n the district used to augment their firewood piles by extracting this c
2 CONC oal. At this time we had an oxen team. I used to go with my Dad to help d
2 CONC ig and load the coal. This was done during the winter months when the w
2 CONC ater was fairly low and men were able to get fairly far out into the st
2 CONC ream. After shoveling off the ice and picking off the rocks we would fi
2 CONC nd the coal, which was in layers, bright and shiny. Between each layer t
2 CONC here was quite large paper thin sheets of mica. When I first saw it I t
2 CONC hought it was gold and I can remembering bitterly disappointed when my D
2 CONC ad informed me that it was only fool's gold. This used to be a job that c
2 CONC onsumed a whole day, leaving home before day light with four bundles of g
2 CONC reen feed in the sleigh box for the oxen and our lunches. We generally l
2 CONC oaded around 4 p.m.  We started the trip home up the frozen river to th
2 CONC e ferry, then on up the old ferry road, where Beryl Gray lived at the t
2 CONC op of the hill. This hill was quite steep and we had to rest the team f
2 CONC or four or five times on the way up, securely holding the load by a pai
2 CONC r of iron dogs, that were fixed on hinges, to the back of each runner. T
2 CONC his coal was sold by some of the settlers to home owners in Rocky Mount
2 CONC ain House for $5.00 a ton.
2 CONT 	Before the advent of household refrigerators, housewives used to keep t
2 CONC heir butter, meats and other perishables in an ice box.The homesteaders g
2 CONC enerally had a fairly deep hole into which they lowered these things or s
2 CONC ometimes a shelf built on the walls of their wells. However, ice was ne
2 CONC eded for the housewives for Rocky and the first ice came from Lake Erni
2 CONC e, about three miles east of town. This was cut with long ice saws, hau
2 CONC led, then sold in town. In later years ice was procured from the river. L
2 CONC ake Ernie was also well known for a large grove of white birch which wa
2 CONC s located on its eastern shore, close to Mr. Wirda's homestead. It was t
2 CONC he only hardwood available in the district, apart from the swamp tamara
2 CONC cs and many homesteaders in the area used to get a load of this wood to b
2 CONC e used in repairing wagon tongues and reaches; for making doubletrees a
2 CONC nd single trees; handles for hoes or rakes.  In these early years I hav
2 CONC e seen the waters of both Lake Ernie and Mud Lake, which is just east o
2 CONC f town, literally black with geese and ducks. Thinking back to construc
2 CONC tion days, there was an old 1000 type C.N.R. locomotive that tipped ove
2 CONC r on the curve by the lake and went out of sight in the mire there.
2 CONT 	Humor was always with these early settlers. A man by the name of Paul F
2 CONC rost, who had homesteaded the quarter (I think now owned by Ashbys), wo
2 CONC rked hard to grub out two acres.  My Dad broke it for him with the oxen
2 CONC . Paul bought 200 pounds of rolled oats and it was claimed he broadcast
2 CONC ed them. He was going to grow rolled oats for porridge. This was in 191
2 CONC 1.There was a merry soul; whose name, is I remember correctly, was Osca
2 CONC r Wilde. He was a remittance man and he used to ride about the district o
2 CONC n a stone boat pulled by a single pony, generally singing at the top of h
2 CONC is voice. Another oddity of those early days was a team composed of one h
2 CONC orse and one cow, that a Mr. Tenant, who lived on the west side of the r
2 CONC iver, owned.
2 CONT 	During the years of 1912 or 1913, the Provincial Government instituted a p
2 CONC lan to upgrade the stock throughout the province. This was accomplished b
2 CONC y making purebred bulls available throughout various areas in the provi
2 CONC nce.One animal was allocated to each area, depending on the amount of c
2 CONC ows.  A homesteader or farmer was chosen who already had some cows and w
2 CONC ho lived it the central part of a district.  I can recall that there we
2 CONC re Hereford, Shorthorn and Polled Angus in the areas encircling the Roc
2 CONC ky district. My Dad was chosen as one of these men. At that time he had a h
2 CONC erd of milk cows so he was allocated an Ayreshire, which dad an awesome p
2 CONC air of horns. I think this animal was the champion fence breaker of the d
2 CONC istrict.  There were few barb wire fences in those days as they were to
2 CONC o expensive so poplar or spruce poles composed the make up of most of t
2 CONC he fencing.
2 CONT 	I believe that my folks were the first ones to sell milk to the townsf
2 CONC olk, and it was my job to deliver it.  For this, I was supplied an old d
2 CONC emocrat buggy with one of the two seats removed to make room in the bac
2 CONC k for the milk. It was pulled by one pony named Dick, and he was adorne
2 CONC d with a set of bells attached to his harness to let folks know in adva
2 CONC nce that the milkman was coming. I hated those darn bells, but my Mothe
2 CONC r insisted they remain on the horse.  Milk was delivered at the price o
2 CONC f sixteen quarts for a dollar and before the advent of the bottle was c
2 CONC ontained in several milk cans with a tap at the bottom. I had pint and q
2 CONC uart measures and measured out each order. It was a sloppy business and I
2 CONC 'm afraid not very sanitary.  I for one was happy when the bottles came
2 CONC .
2 CONT 	The first barber that I can recall was named Jack Burt, and his shop w
2 CONC as located next to the J.L. Standish Drug Store.  Haircuts were 35¢ and i
2 CONC f Jack wasn't busy he would play a customer a game of cribbage.  If the c
2 CONC ustomer won, he got a free haircut, if he lost it cost him 70¢. I bough
2 CONC t my first razor at the Standish Drug Store. It was a Gillette and 57 y
2 CONC ears later I am still using it. A good $5.00 investment.
2 CONT 	No doubt there are many people, now living in Rocky, who never heard o
2 CONC f the Cache.  Believe me it was in those days a vital part of Rocky, be
2 CONC cause the Canadian Northern Railway had made a terminal there. Train en
2 CONC gine crews working out of Big Valley brought the empty coal cars up fro
2 CONC m the East and set them out on the side tracks at Lodge, about a mile a
2 CONC nd a half east of town.  On their return trip they would pick up a trai
2 CONC n of coal, that had been set out there by crews assigned to Rocky, then t
2 CONC ake them east, where they were distributed to the various C.N.R. termin
2 CONC als to be used to provide fuel for the locomotives in the Western distr
2 CONC icts.  In those days there were four crews assigned to Rocky to work be
2 CONC tween Rocky and Nordegg, three coal hauling crews, and one way freight c
2 CONC rew. Each crew was composed of five men, a engineer, a fireman, two bra
2 CONC kemen, and a conductor. There was on the average of three trains, compo
2 CONC sed of approximately thirty cars a day going through Rocky.  Each car h
2 CONC eld between 30 and 40 tons of coal, depending on the size of the car. T
2 CONC he wayfreight's job was to pick up carloads of mine props which are bei
2 CONC ng produced at Horburg, Ferrier and at the Fisher Spur and the Jackpine
2 CONC , also to switch the domestic coal that was mined at Saunder's Creek, W
2 CONC est Saunder's and another near Harleck.
2 CONT 	A three stall roundhouse was built at the Cache to house the engine. A r
2 CONC amp was constructed which held three cars of coal. From these the tende
2 CONC rs of the engines were loaded with coal.  Two men doing the shoveling, w
2 CONC ith two shifts of men on twelve hour shifts. This was before the 10 and 8 h
2 CONC our days which were in instituted by the Mac Adoo award early in 1920. T
2 CONC he wages paid to these men was 22¢ an hour.  I know, because that is wh
2 CONC at I was paid when I became an engine watchman in August, 1918. The Cac
2 CONC he in those days was a hive of activity.  Mr. Charley Robinson was the f
2 CONC irst locomotive foreman.
2 CONT 	Mr. Robinson with his wife, six sons and one daughter, lived in two bo
2 CONC x cars which had been taken off their wheels and set on the ground just s
2 CONC outh of where I believe the old section house still stands.  Mr. Robins
2 CONC on and his family lived in the back car and the front one was used as a
2 CONC n office.
2 CONT 	The section house was occupied by Mr. W. Paskall where he raised a lar
2 CONC ge family. The Roadmaster, whose name was Mr. Jim Eagleson, occupied a s
2 CONC imilar home to that of Mr. Robinson; two box cars, one serving as a res
2 CONC idence and one as an office. Mr. Alphonse Feys was the night foreman an
2 CONC d he had a small tarpaper shack in which he lived prior to bringing his f
2 CONC amily out from Belgium. Back of the section house, in a spruce grove wa
2 CONC s the home of Mr. Fred Seymour. His eldest son, Ben, worked in the roun
2 CONC dhouse. Then at the end of the old spur was a box car, which was left o
2 CONC n its wheels, in which resided Mr. Ben Dickens and his wife.  He was th
2 CONC e Lineman, whose duty was to keep all the phones and telegraph keys in w
2 CONC orking order, plus renewing any broken poles and fixing broken wired. H
2 CONC is area extended from Warden in the east to Nordegg in the west.  He wa
2 CONC s supplied with a track motor car.  I might add here that the men known a
2 CONC s coal heavers used to shovel from 9 to 15 tons of coal into the coal h
2 CONC oppers of the locomotives. The hopper's capacity was 15 tons and many o
2 CONC f them were nearly empty on arrival in Rocky Mountain House.
2 CONT 	The first train load of coal out of the Nordegg mines was composed of 1
2 CONC 4 cars.  Each car had a big canvas sign, about five feet wide with four f
2 CONC oot letters, proclaiming "The First Trainload of Nordegg Steam Coal". T
2 CONC he locomotive was one of the small 1000 type, replaced in later years w
2 CONC ith the 2100 type which was a stronger engine. This train stopped at th
2 CONC e depot where it was greeted with great acclaim and fan fare. The name C
2 CONC ache was derived from a cache of bootleg whisky, that was found near th
2 CONC e site, hidden by some bootlegger. These men used to supply the constru
2 CONC ction crews with booze.
2 CONT 	I have often wondered if any of the older residents of Rocky can recal
2 CONC l some of the names of those early railroaders? There was Bill Hanlan, w
2 CONC ho lived with his family in Rocky; Dan Ardill a conductor, who lived in R
2 CONC ocky and Chesty Thompson, a brakeman who at one time raised foxes acros
2 CONC s the river.
2 CONT 	Jim Chalmers had the first butcher shop in Rocky.  The slaughtering of b
2 CONC eef was done on the George Thompson homestead, which was located three m
2 CONC iles west and north of town on the river road. Mr. Thompson with the as
2 CONC sistance of A. W. Brockman did the slaughtering.  In later years when J
2 CONC ames Horne purchased the Harry Bertrand homestead, a fairly modern slau
2 CONC ghterhouse was built about three hundred yards east of Mr. Horne's hous
2 CONC e. Mr. George Thompson was the first publisher of the first newspaper, w
2 CONC hich was called The Echo and was typed out on two and sometimes three s
2 CONC heets of paper. What was known as Fleming Creek, flowed through the Cac
2 CONC he and meandered its way to the river, flowing past the back of the Y, t
2 CONC hrough Old Town to where it emptied into the river.  It provided a beau
2 CONC tiful swimming pool back of the Y. Many brook trout were caught there i
2 CONC f one could get there when the youngsters were not swimming in it.  Als
2 CONC o at the mouth of the creek, bull trout, grayling and sometimes ling we
2 CONC re caught. How many residents of the district can recall the year of th
2 CONC e rabbit?  The whole country was over run by them.  Some enterprising s
2 CONC oul, whose name escapes me, found out that there was a market for these c
2 CONC ritters.  They were used as meat to supply the fox farms in Nova Scotia
2 CONC .  The upshot of this idea was that rabbits were purchased for 5 each. T
2 CONC he heads, front and back paws had to be cut off. The carcasses were the
2 CONC n stacked in piles, at the C.P.R.  Transfer, where they were loaded int
2 CONC o a car and I believe that eleven carloads were shipped from Rocky Moun
2 CONC tain House. This event not only assisted ridding the area of what had b
2 CONC ecome a pest, but also provided a method of earning a little extra mone
2 CONC y.  Many young boys and some girls added to their pocket money by going o
2 CONC ut among the ridges and muskegs to shoot rabbits, with an old apple box o
2 CONC r orange box attached to their sleighs, they would come home with two o
2 CONC r three dozen rabbits.  Rabbits came from all over the district; Prairi
2 CONC e Creek, Ferrier, Horburg, Beaver Flats and many other places, in all k
2 CONC ind of conveyances.  They came by the hayrack load, in double grain box l
2 CONC oads, in sleigh cutter loads.  Indians brought in toboggan loads. I can r
2 CONC ecall Ed Dell, who was the C.P.R. station agent at that time, saying th
2 CONC at the freight cost per carload to Nova Scotia was $1,150.00.  I might a
2 CONC dd here that short rifle shells were 20 for a box of fifty, most of the r
2 CONC abbits were shot, although some folks snared them. In the days around 1
2 CONC 910, 1911, and 1912 the areas were under the supervision of what was kn
2 CONC own as the Local Improvement District. Each one of these districts had a r
2 CONC oad commissioner, whose duty was to inspect the roads in his district, a
2 CONC rrange for repairs and supervise new road construction. Mr. Louis Karls
2 CONC en was the road commissioner of the area surrounding Rocky. Homesteader
2 CONC s had an opportunity to work out their taxes by doing road work and the w
2 CONC ork was generally done in the summer period when it wouldn't interfere w
2 CONC ith haying operations. Mr. Karlsen would visit them, telling them where a
2 CONC nd when they were needed and to bring a team of horses if they had one. I
2 CONC f not, bring shovels, axes or crosscut saws.  Horse drawn slips were su
2 CONC pplied by the L.I.D. There were large ones that required a teamster to h
2 CONC andle the team and another man to guide the slip. Then there were small
2 CONC er slips, drawn by one horse.  The man handling this outfit had to have t
2 CONC he lines about his neck, with both hands guiding the slip. This was a t
2 CONC reacherous job as you some times struck either a big root or a stone an
2 CONC d if you weren't ready for it, you would land up over the slip among th
2 CONC e horse's heels. Mudholes had to be patched, new corduroy poles cut, ge
2 CONC nerally getting the poles right near the road, and brushing was needed. C
2 CONC orduroy poles being laid across the roadbed in swampy and muskegs areas
2 CONC , and then slip loads of dirt dumped on top of them to create the road, w
2 CONC hich was then graded by a four horse grader. There is a ridge east of t
2 CONC own, commencing on the south side of Lake Ernie, continuing on through t
2 CONC he cemetery, through the old Hudson's Bay quarter section until it pete
2 CONC rs out in the muskeg, about three quarters of a mile northeast of town, k
2 CONC nown as Fox Ridge. Its name came from a den of foxes that one of the Ha
2 CONC yworth boys dug out of there around 1910.

2 NOTE <b><u>A.A. BROCKMAN</b></u> - by A. Brockman
3 CONT
3 CONT 	My first recollections are the journey from Edmonton to Red Deer with m
3 CONC y parents and sister Clara and Constance, who was only about seven mont
3 CONC hs old at the time.  I was nine at the time and Clara was seven. We wer
3 CONC e accompanied on this journey by Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Williams who had tw
3 CONC o small boys and Susy their daughter.  The boys names were Bruce and Ha
3 CONC rold.  I can recall how excited all us kids were when, arriving in Red D
3 CONC eer on the C.P.R. train we all were taken over to the Arlington Hotel, w
3 CONC here we were to await the arrival of the conveyance which was to take u
3 CONC s to our new home in Rocky Mountain House.  In a day or so that conveya
3 CONC nce arrived in Red Deer. It was an immense double grain box mounted on s
3 CONC leighs, powered by two huge oxen and, Mr. John Bertrand was the owner-d
3 CONC river.  There were five adults and six children, plus the furniture and c
3 CONC hattels of two families to be loaded on this sleigh and believe me it w
3 CONC as piled high.  We left early in the A.M. of Feb. 28th 1910, and we kid
3 CONC s easily out ran theoxen as there was little room for us on the load, s
3 CONC ometimes we would take turns standing on the backs of the sleigh runner
3 CONC s.  The weather was ideal, quite mild, as there was a chinook in progre
3 CONC ss.  Our first overnight places were called stopping houses.  Bright an
3 CONC d early on March the 1st we resumed our journey, I might add here that t
3 CONC here didn't seem to be a defined road, just a trail that meandered over t
3 CONC he ridges, across meadows and through muskegs. There were bare patches o
3 CONC f ground on some of the ridges, and we discovered low bush cranberries t
3 CONC hat were quite edible even after being frozen and thawed.  Late in the e
3 CONC vening of March 1st, we arrived in Beaver Flats where there was another s
3 CONC topping house. This I recall was owned by the McLeods.  Again an early m
3 CONC orning start and, around 3 p.m. we arrived at Mr. Bertrands home which w
3 CONC as situated on the N.W. corner of the original town site.  If I remembe
3 CONC r correctly the Williams family stayed with the Bertrands for a while.  M
3 CONC y father had made arrangements to stay on the Ves. Hayworth homestead w
3 CONC hich was located just across the creek close to where the Cache was loc
3 CONC ated later on. We stayed there for about six weeks, until our log cabin w
3 CONC as built on the homestead site, located one half mile east of the prese
3 CONC nt town site. The logs for that cabin were cut from the area near Mud L
3 CONC ake and they were chinked with moss we kids pulled off the trees in the s
3 CONC wamp. During our stay in the Cache area we met Mr. Fleming, who lived i
3 CONC n a dugout before he built his home and brought his family out. I may a
3 CONC dd here that he had a reputation for witching wells and he witched the w
3 CONC ell that still supplies water to our home.
3 CONT 	Our nearest neighbor, a widow lady, Mrs. Hayworth, lived about three q
3 CONC uarters of a mile north of us. There were three sons, Earl, Ves and Joe
3 CONC l and three daughters, Freda, Elsie and Sylvia.  They were very good to u
3 CONC s, giving us milk some vegetables. It was my job to go over there every d
3 CONC ay to get the milk which I carried in a five pound lard can. It seemed a l
3 CONC ong lonely trip through trees and many times I ran most of the way as I w
3 CONC as afraid of bears that were around and also for the coyotes that made a
3 CONC n ungodly racket.  Mrs. Hayworth drove a team of bulls.  These animals q
3 CONC uite often would trot as fast as a team of horses, goaded on by the sma
3 CONC ll nail inserted in the end of a small pole.  I was always afraid of th
3 CONC ese animals, but was often glad of a ride with her to the Post Office, w
3 CONC hich was called Prairie Grange and was near the confluence of the Clear
3 CONC water and Saskatchewan River on Mr. Scott McKenzie's homestead, which w
3 CONC as about three miles from home.
3 CONT 	Mr. Leslie Slaght owned the homestead immediately north of the McKenzi
3 CONC e place. I can recall how he created quite a furor in the district when h
3 CONC e discovered what he really thought were diamonds in the cliff banks of t
3 CONC he Saskatchewan River, on his homestead.  They turned out to be some ty
3 CONC pe of crystals. The first Sunday school of the area was held in Mr. Sla
3 CONC ght's home. He and his wife and oldest daughter, Ruth were the teachers a
3 CONC nd our first Sunday School picnic was held at the site of the old Hudso
3 CONC n Bay Chimneys, where youngster who didn't participate in the games, hu
3 CONC nted for old arrowheads and beads.
3 CONT 	The nearest store was located at Stauffer. In those days Mr. Bertrand m
3 CONC ade a weekly trip for supplies. The grocery orders accompanied with the r
3 CONC equired money, was taken to his home.  When he returned the packages we
3 CONC re picked up at his home. There was a small fee for this but I am unabl
3 CONC e to recall how much it was. It seems to me it was one dollar a hundred p
3 CONC ound; however I'm not sure about this.The following year Mr. Jack Killi
3 CONC ck open a store on the Tom Gray homestead across the river, which wasn'
3 CONC t so far away.
3 CONT 	The first operator of the river ferry, that I can recall, was Mr. Aust
3 CONC in.  He lived with his wife and two children, Paul and Mae, near the ri
3 CONC ver bank on the west side. They left for Australia in either 1911 or 19
3 CONC 12. Mr. Opie Thompson then took over the operation. It was always an ad
3 CONC venture to cross the river on the ferry, which was propelled by the act
3 CONC ion of the river current, held by an immense cable on which the trolley
3 CONC s rolled. The cable was secured in strong cement abutments embedded on e
3 CONC ach side of the river.  In the early days there was a cable car attachm
3 CONC ent secured to these trolleys which could hold one person. This was the o
3 CONC nly means of crossing the river during the breakup of the ice in the sp
3 CONC ring of during the early winter period before the ice became secure eno
3 CONC ugh to be used as a crossing.  After the railroad bridge was finished t
3 CONC his was used by the settlers to cross during those periods of the year.
3 CONC I can recall how some brave souls used to bumpity bump their old model T
3 CONC 's across the railroad bridge although the railroad company forbid this p
3 CONC ractice, which didn't deter these folks.
3 CONT 	Early in 1911 a school board of trustees was formed and a school was b
3 CONC uilt on the southeast corner of Bruce Williams homestead. Miss Mabel Fl
3 CONC eming, from Lacombe, was the first teacher.  She was paid the fabulous s
3 CONC alary of $50.00 a month. She taught grades one to eight. My father was t
3 CONC he Secretary-Treasurer of the school board. The school was heated by a h
3 CONC uge wood heater which hungrily ate the chunks of tamarack wood that wer
3 CONC e cut and hauled by the various parents.  There were no school buses in t
3 CONC hose days and some of the children came a distance of four of five mile
3 CONC s. Almost everyone used tamarack wood, as it lasted longer than the oth
3 CONC er available woods, and threw more heat.  I was one of the first janito
3 CONC rs of the school.  My duties were to start the early morning fire, clea
3 CONC n the blackboards and sweep up the cloak- and classrooms, of which ther
3 CONC e was only one. The name Confluence School District was taken from the c
3 CONC onfluence of the two rivers.
3 CONT 	I can recall the interest created by the oncoming survey of the two ra
3 CONC ilroad companies, and how all the settlers figures how valuable their p
3 CONC roperties would be with the advent of the railroad.  The A.C.R. (Albert
3 CONC a Central Railway) was a subsidiary of the C.P.R. and they were surveyi
3 CONC ng a right of way commencing from Red Deer. The Canadian Northern were s
3 CONC urveying from Warden Junction, which was five mile south of Stettler on t
3 CONC he old Calgary-Edmonton branch.  They had to come a distance of approxi
3 CONC mately 130 miles, while the A.C.R. had about 60 miles to Rocky.  When t
3 CONC he grade was completed and the track laying commenced, it was a race be
3 CONC tween both companies to see who would arrive first.  The prize for both o
3 CONC f them was to tap the rich Nordegg coal field.  They arrived simultaneo
3 CONC usly at the junction for the two roads, which is roughly about 150 yard
3 CONC s east of where the old depot used to stand.  There were fist fights be
3 CONC tween both construction crews and tempers ran high.  Three nights in a r
3 CONC ow, sections of the track were torn up by opposing crews. However by th
3 CONC e intervention of the Federal and Provincial Governments an agreement w
3 CONC as reached and construction was resumed. The A.C.R. built the steel to t
3 CONC he bridge site, the Y and the sidetracks, known as the C.P.R. Transfer.  T
3 CONC hey also built the bridge to what was known as Lochern, where the water t
3 CONC ank was located. The C.N.R. received running rights over this piece of t
3 CONC rack, then continued on to Nordegg.
3 CONT 	The site of bridge construction crews was on the east side of the rive
3 CONC r, where many tents and shacks were erected for the crews.  It wasn't l
3 CONC ong before enterprising merchants put up stores at the site.  Kirby and D
3 CONC riscoll, I believe, were the first and then it was known as Tent Town.  L
3 CONC ater when the George Bertrand farm was surveyed for a town site and Ten
3 CONC t Town was changed to Old Town.  As most folks are aware, a long, high r
3 CONC amp was required on the west side of the river to attain the level of t
3 CONC he bridge. This was constructed by an enormous amount of fill, which wa
3 CONC s hauled to the site by three small locomotives, known as dinkys. These w
3 CONC ere hauled in from Red Deer on huge sleighs and pulled by three- twelve t
3 CONC eams of mules.  It was really an exciting time.  I can recall that they w
3 CONC ere stuck on the hill in front of my Dad's place, as it wasn't graded a
3 CONC t that time. There was one unfortunate tragedy occurred during construc
3 CONC tion of the bridge. A workman fell off the structure and it was all of t
3 CONC wo years later that this body was recovered on a sandbar about three mi
3 CONC les down river. His body was the first to be interred in Pine Grove Cem
3 CONC etery.  I assisted my Dad in digging that grave.
3 CONT 	Thinking back to that gravel bar reminds me of lignite coal out-croppi
3 CONC ng about three miles down stream from the old ferry site. Homesteaders i
3 CONC n the district used to augment their firewood piles by extracting this c
3 CONC oal. At this time we had an oxen team. I used to go with my Dad to help d
3 CONC ig and load the coal. This was done during the winter months when the w
3 CONC ater was fairly low and men were able to get fairly far out into the st
3 CONC ream. After shoveling off the ice and picking off the rocks we would fi
3 CONC nd the coal, which was in layers, bright and shiny. Between each layer t
3 CONC here was quite large paper thin sheets of mica. When I first saw it I t
3 CONC hought it was gold and I can remembering bitterly disappointed when my D
3 CONC ad informed me that it was only fool's gold. This used to be a job that c
3 CONC onsumed a whole day, leaving home before day light with four bundles of g
3 CONC reen feed in the sleigh box for the oxen and our lunches. We generally l
3 CONC oaded around 4 p.m.  We started the trip home up the frozen river to th
3 CONC e ferry, then on up the old ferry road, where Beryl Gray lived at the t
3 CONC op of the hill. This hill was quite steep and we had to rest the team f
3 CONC or four or five times on the way up, securely holding the load by a pai
3 CONC r of iron dogs, that were fixed on hinges, to the back of each runner. T
3 CONC his coal was sold by some of the settlers to home owners in Rocky Mount
3 CONC ain House for $5.00 a ton.
3 CONT 	Before the advent of household refrigerators, housewives used to keep t
3 CONC heir butter, meats and other perishables in an ice box.The homesteaders g
3 CONC enerally had a fairly deep hole into which they lowered these things or s
3 CONC ometimes a shelf built on the walls of their wells. However, ice was ne
3 CONC eded for the housewives for Rocky and the first ice came from Lake Erni
3 CONC e, about three miles east of town. This was cut with long ice saws, hau
3 CONC led, then sold in town. In later years ice was procured from the river. L
3 CONC ake Ernie was also well known for a large grove of white birch which wa
3 CONC s located on its eastern shore, close to Mr. Wirda's homestead. It was t
3 CONC he only hardwood available in the district, apart from the swamp tamara
3 CONC cs and many homesteaders in the area used to get a load of this wood to b
3 CONC e used in repairing wagon tongues and reaches; for making doubletrees a
3 CONC nd single trees; handles for hoes or rakes.  In these early years I hav
3 CONC e seen the waters of both Lake Ernie and Mud Lake, which is just east o
3 CONC f town, literally black with geese and ducks. Thinking back to construc
3 CONC tion days, there was an old 1000 type C.N.R. locomotive that tipped ove
3 CONC r on the curve by the lake and went out of sight in the mire there.
3 CONT 	Humor was always with these early settlers. A man by the name of Paul F
3 CONC rost, who had homesteaded the quarter (I think now owned by Ashbys), wo
3 CONC rked hard to grub out two acres.  My Dad broke it for him with the oxen
3 CONC . Paul bought 200 pounds of rolled oats and it was claimed he broadcast
3 CONC ed them. He was going to grow rolled oats for porridge. This was in 191
3 CONC 1.There was a merry soul; whose name, is I remember correctly, was Osca
3 CONC r Wilde. He was a remittance man and he used to ride about the district o
3 CONC n a stone boat pulled by a single pony, generally singing at the top of h
3 CONC is voice. Another oddity of those early days was a team composed of one h
3 CONC orse and one cow, that a Mr. Tenant, who lived on the west side of the r
3 CONC iver, owned.
3 CONT 	During the years of 1912 or 1913, the Provincial Government instituted a p
3 CONC lan to upgrade the stock throughout the province. This was accomplished b
3 CONC y making purebred bulls available throughout various areas in the provi
3 CONC nce.One animal was allocated to each area, depending on the amount of c
3 CONC ows.  A homesteader or farmer was chosen who already had some cows and w
3 CONC ho lived it the central part of a district.  I can recall that there we
3 CONC re Hereford, Shorthorn and Polled Angus in the areas encircling the Roc
3 CONC ky district. My Dad was chosen as one of these men. At that time he had a h
3 CONC erd of milk cows so he was allocated an Ayreshire, which dad an awesome p
3 CONC air of horns. I think this animal was the champion fence breaker of the d
3 CONC istrict.  There were few barb wire fences in those days as they were to
3 CONC o expensive so poplar or spruce poles composed the make up of most of t
3 CONC he fencing.
3 CONT 	I believe that my folks were the first ones to sell milk to the townsf
3 CONC olk, and it was my job to deliver it.  For this, I was supplied an old d
3 CONC emocrat buggy with one of the two seats removed to make room in the bac
3 CONC k for the milk. It was pulled by one pony named Dick, and he was adorne
3 CONC d with a set of bells attached to his harness to let folks know in adva
3 CONC nce that the milkman was coming. I hated those darn bells, but my Mothe
3 CONC r insisted they remain on the horse.  Milk was delivered at the price o
3 CONC f sixteen quarts for a dollar and before the advent of the bottle was c
3 CONC ontained in several milk cans with a tap at the bottom. I had pint and q
3 CONC uart measures and measured out each order. It was a sloppy business and I
3 CONC 'm afraid not very sanitary.  I for one was happy when the bottles came
3 CONC .
3 CONT 	The first barber that I can recall was named Jack Burt, and his shop w
3 CONC as located next to the J.L. Standish Drug Store.  Haircuts were 35¢ and i
3 CONC f Jack wasn't busy he would play a customer a game of cribbage.  If the c
3 CONC ustomer won, he got a free haircut, if he lost it cost him 70¢. I bough
3 CONC t my first razor at the Standish Drug Store. It was a Gillette and 57 y
3 CONC ears later I am still using it. A good $5.00 investment.
3 CONT 	No doubt there are many people, now living in Rocky, who never heard o
3 CONC f the Cache.  Believe me it was in those days a vital part of Rocky, be
3 CONC cause the Canadian Northern Railway had made a terminal there. Train en
3 CONC gine crews working out of Big Valley brought the empty coal cars up fro
3 CONC m the East and set them out on the side tracks at Lodge, about a mile a
3 CONC nd a half east of town.  On their return trip they would pick up a trai
3 CONC n of coal, that had been set out there by crews assigned to Rocky, then t
3 CONC ake them east, where they were distributed to the various C.N.R. termin
3 CONC als to be used to provide fuel for the locomotives in the Western distr
3 CONC icts.  In those days there were four crews assigned to Rocky to work be
3 CONC tween Rocky and Nordegg, three coal hauling crews, and one way freight c
3 CONC rew. Each crew was composed of five men, a engineer, a fireman, two bra
3 CONC kemen, and a conductor. There was on the average of three trains, compo
3 CONC sed of approximately thirty cars a day going through Rocky.  Each car h
3 CONC eld between 30 and 40 tons of coal, depending on the size of the car. T
3 CONC he wayfreight's job was to pick up carloads of mine props which are bei
3 CONC ng produced at Horburg, Ferrier and at the Fisher Spur and the Jackpine
3 CONC , also to switch the domestic coal that was mined at Saunder's Creek, W
3 CONC est Saunder's and another near Harleck.
3 CONT 	A three stall roundhouse was built at the Cache to house the engine. A r
3 CONC amp was constructed which held three cars of coal. From these the tende
3 CONC rs of the engines were loaded with coal.  Two men doing the shoveling, w
3 CONC ith two shifts of men on twelve hour shifts. This was before the 10 and 8 h
3 CONC our days which were in instituted by the Mac Adoo award early in 1920. T
3 CONC he wages paid to these men was 22¢ an hour.  I know, because that is wh
3 CONC at I was paid when I became an engine watchman in August, 1918. The Cac
3 CONC he in those days was a hive of activity.  Mr. Charley Robinson was the f
3 CONC irst locomotive foreman.
3 CONT 	Mr. Robinson with his wife, six sons and one daughter, lived in two bo
3 CONC x cars which had been taken off their wheels and set on the ground just s
3 CONC outh of where I believe the old section house still stands.  Mr. Robins
3 CONC on and his family lived in the back car and the front one was used as a
3 CONC n office.
3 CONT 	The section house was occupied by Mr. W. Paskall where he raised a lar
3 CONC ge family. The Roadmaster, whose name was Mr. Jim Eagleson, occupied a s
3 CONC imilar home to that of Mr. Robinson; two box cars, one serving as a res
3 CONC idence and one as an office. Mr. Alphonse Feys was the night foreman an
3 CONC d he had a small tarpaper shack in which he lived prior to bringing his f
3 CONC amily out from Belgium. Back of the section house, in a spruce grove wa
3 CONC s the home of Mr. Fred Seymour. His eldest son, Ben, worked in the roun
3 CONC dhouse. Then at the end of the old spur was a box car, which was left o
3 CONC n its wheels, in which resided Mr. Ben Dickens and his wife.  He was th
3 CONC e Lineman, whose duty was to keep all the phones and telegraph keys in w
3 CONC orking order, plus renewing any broken poles and fixing broken wired. H
3 CONC is area extended from Warden in the east to Nordegg in the west.  He wa
3 CONC s supplied with a track motor car.  I might add here that the men known a
3 CONC s coal heavers used to shovel from 9 to 15 tons of coal into the coal h
3 CONC oppers of the locomotives. The hopper's capacity was 15 tons and many o
3 CONC f them were nearly empty on arrival in Rocky Mountain House.
3 CONT 	The first train load of coal out of the Nordegg mines was composed of 1
3 CONC 4 cars.  Each car had a big canvas sign, about five feet wide with four f
3 CONC oot letters, proclaiming "The First Trainload of Nordegg Steam Coal". T
3 CONC he locomotive was one of the small 1000 type, replaced in later years w
3 CONC ith the 2100 type which was a stronger engine. This train stopped at th
3 CONC e depot where it was greeted with great acclaim and fan fare. The name C
3 CONC ache was derived from a cache of bootleg whisky, that was found near th
3 CONC e site, hidden by some bootlegger. These men used to supply the constru
3 CONC ction crews with booze.
3 CONT 	I have often wondered if any of the older residents of Rocky can recal
3 CONC l some of the names of those early railroaders? There was Bill Hanlan, w
3 CONC ho lived with his family in Rocky; Dan Ardill a conductor, who lived in R
3 CONC ocky and Chesty Thompson, a brakeman who at one time raised foxes acros
3 CONC s the river.
3 CONT 	Jim Chalmers had the first butcher shop in Rocky.  The slaughtering of b
3 CONC eef was done on the George Thompson homestead, which was located three m
3 CONC iles west and north of town on the river road. Mr. Thompson with the as
3 CONC sistance of A. W. Brockman did the slaughtering.  In later years when J
3 CONC ames Horne purchased the Harry Bertrand homestead, a fairly modern slau
3 CONC ghterhouse was built about three hundred yards east of Mr. Horne's hous
3 CONC e. Mr. George Thompson was the first publisher of the first newspaper, w
3 CONC hich was called The Echo and was typed out on two and sometimes three s
3 CONC heets of paper. What was known as Fleming Creek, flowed through the Cac
3 CONC he and meandered its way to the river, flowing past the back of the Y, t
3 CONC hrough Old Town to where it emptied into the river.  It provided a beau
3 CONC tiful swimming pool back of the Y. Many brook trout were caught there i
3 CONC f one could get there when the youngsters were not swimming in it.  Als
3 CONC o at the mouth of the creek, bull trout, grayling and sometimes ling we
3 CONC re caught. How many residents of the district can recall the year of th
3 CONC e rabbit?  The whole country was over run by them.  Some enterprising s
3 CONC oul, whose name escapes me, found out that there was a market for these c
3 CONC ritters.  They were used as meat to supply the fox farms in Nova Scotia
3 CONC .  The upshot of this idea was that rabbits were purchased for 5 each. T
3 CONC he heads, front and back paws had to be cut off. The carcasses were the
3 CONC n stacked in piles, at the C.P.R.  Transfer, where they were loaded int
3 CONC o a car and I believe that eleven carloads were shipped from Rocky Moun
3 CONC tain House. This event not only assisted ridding the area of what had b
3 CONC ecome a pest, but also provided a method of earning a little extra mone
3 CONC y.  Many young boys and some girls added to their pocket money by going o
3 CONC ut among the ridges and muskegs to shoot rabbits, with an old apple box o
3 CONC r orange box attached to their sleighs, they would come home with two o
3 CONC r three dozen rabbits.  Rabbits came from all over the district; Prairi
3 CONC e Creek, Ferrier, Horburg, Beaver Flats and many other places, in all k
3 CONC ind of conveyances.  They came by the hayrack load, in double grain box l
3 CONC oads, in sleigh cutter loads.  Indians brought in toboggan loads. I can r
3 CONC ecall Ed Dell, who was the C.P.R. station agent at that time, saying th
3 CONC at the freight cost per carload to Nova Scotia was $1,150.00.  I might a
3 CONC dd here that short rifle shells were 20 for a box of fifty, most of the r
3 CONC abbits were shot, although some folks snared them. In the days around 1
3 CONC 910, 1911, and 1912 the areas were under the supervision of what was kn
3 CONC own as the Local Improvement District. Each one of these districts had a r
3 CONC oad commissioner, whose duty was to inspect the roads in his district, a
3 CONC rrange for repairs and supervise new road construction. Mr. Louis Karls
3 CONC en was the road commissioner of the area surrounding Rocky. Homesteader
3 CONC s had an opportunity to work out their taxes by doing road work and the w
3 CONC ork was generally done in the summer period when it wouldn't interfere w
3 CONC ith haying operations. Mr. Karlsen would visit them, telling them where a
3 CONC nd when they were needed and to bring a team of horses if they had one. I
3 CONC f not, bring shovels, axes or crosscut saws.  Horse drawn slips were su
3 CONC pplied by the L.I.D. There were large ones that required a teamster to h
3 CONC andle the team and another man to guide the slip. Then there were small
3 CONC er slips, drawn by one horse.  The man handling this outfit had to have t
3 CONC he lines about his neck, with both hands guiding the slip. This was a t
3 CONC reacherous job as you some times struck either a big root or a stone an
3 CONC d if you weren't ready for it, you would land up over the slip among th
3 CONC e horse's heels. Mudholes had to be patched, new corduroy poles cut, ge
3 CONC nerally getting the poles right near the road, and brushing was needed. C
3 CONC orduroy poles being laid across the roadbed in swampy and muskegs areas
3 CONC , and then slip loads of dirt dumped on top of them to create the road, w
3 CONC hich was then graded by a four horse grader. There is a ridge east of t
3 CONC own, commencing on the south side of Lake Ernie, continuing on through t
3 CONC he cemetery, through the old Hudson's Bay quarter section until it pete
3 CONC rs out in the muskeg, about three quarters of a mile northeast of town, k
3 CONC nown as Fox Ridge. Its name came from a den of foxes that one of the Ha
3 CONC yworth boys dug out of there around 1910.
