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.

AND MRS. A. W. BROCKMAN - contributed by Mrs. W. Pask 3 CONC all 3 CONT 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.

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.

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 FAMS @F28@ 1 FAMC @F15@ 0 @I24@ INDI 1 NAME Keith Stephen /Paskall/ 2 GIVN Keith Stephen 2 SURN Paskall 1 SEX M 1 _UID B7E816CA5DCA07498A88C82A185375C8A2F4 1 CHAN 2 DATE 29 May 1999 1 SOUR @S1@ 1 BIRT 2 DATE 5 NOV 1934 2 PLAC Rocky Mountain House, Alberta 1 DEAT 2 DATE 15 APR 1942 2 PLAC Rocky Mountain House, Alberta 1 BURI 2 DATE 20 APR 1942 2 PLAC Rocky Mountain House, Alberta 1 FAMC @F15@ 0 @I25@ INDI 1 NAME James Robert /Paskall/ 2 GIVN James Robert 2 SURN Paskall 1 SEX M 1 _UID 8CF0313C834EB24181D7274D801A6A67E422 1 CHAN 2 DATE 29 May 1999 1 SOUR @S1@ 1 BIRT 2 DATE 1 MAR 1936 2 PLAC Rocky Mountain House, Alberta 1 DEAT 2 DATE 25 DEC 1984 2 PLAC Edmonton, Alberta 1 BURI 2 DATE 31 DEC 1984 2 PLAC Edmonton, Alberta 1 FAMS @F73@ 1 FAMC @F15@ 0 @I26@ INDI 1 NAME Dennis Charles /Paskall/ 2 GIVN Dennis Charles 2 SURN Paskall 1 SEX M 1 _UID F88689A0BB326148A4572BB3EA4B968D6E78 1 CHAN 2 DATE 11 Apr 2004 1 BIRT 2 DATE 25 OCT 1937 2 PLAC Rocky Mountain House, Alberta 1 FAMS @F56@ 1 FAMC @F15@ 0 @I27@ INDI 1 NAME Wayne Kenneth /Paskall/ 2 GIVN Wayne Kenneth 2 SURN Paskall 1 SEX M 1 _UID F8A44E7515370F469640FE55F24B7E210589 1 CHAN 2 DATE 11 Apr 2004 1 NOTE Wayne Kenneth and Dennis Charles were twin brothers, although not ident 2 CONC ical. 1 SOUR @S1@ 1 BIRT 2 DATE 25 OCT 1937 2 PLAC Rocky Mountain House, Alberta 1 DEAT 2 DATE 1 DEC 2003 2 PLAC Calgary, Alberta 1 FAMC @F15@ 0 @I28@ INDI 1 NAME Harold Gordon /Paskall/ 2 GIVN Harold Gordon 2 SURN Paskall 2 NSFX M.Sc 1 SEX M 1 _UID 953D678B42F9424987220A4D2D8D751AD3C6 1 CHAN 2 DATE 1 Aug 2001 1 SOUR @S1@ 1 BIRT 2 DATE 22 APR 1941 2 PLAC Rocky Mountain House, Alberta 1 DEAT 2 DATE 4 MAY 1994 2 PLAC Calgary, Alberta 1 BURI 2 DATE 8 MAY 1994 2 PLAC Calgary, Alberta 1 FAMS @F57@ 1 FAMC @F15@ 0 @I29@ INDI 1 NAME Lynda Mae /Paskall/ 2 GIVN Lynda Mae 2 SURN Paskall 1 SEX F 1 _UID AF64818F9733374FB125286B9484E3461DC9 1 CHAN 2 DATE 2 Nov 2003 1 SOUR @S1@ 1 BIRT 2 DATE 13 MAY 1943 2 PLAC Rocky Mountain House, Alberta 1 DEAT 2 DATE 7 MAY 1960 2 PLAC Calgary, Alberta 1 BURI 2 DATE 11 MAY 1960 2 PLAC Calgary, Alberta 1 FAMC @F15@ 0 @I30@ INDI 1 NAME Margaret Alice /Paskall/ 2 GIVN Margaret Alice 2 SURN Paskall 1 SEX F 1 _UID F75DF064399DDA42A1C3FA7B175E817DE6ED 1 CHAN 2 DATE 29 May 1999 1 BIRT 2 DATE 7 SEP 1945 2 PLAC Rocky Mountain House, Alberta 1 FAMS @F29@ 1 FAMS @F30@ 1 FAMC @F15@ 0 @I31@ INDI 1 NAME Matthew (Willie) John /Waller/ 2 GIVN Matthew (Willie) John 2 SURN Waller 1 SEX M 1 _UID DCA0BC453A732C45AE69F7355036B528414D 1 CHAN 2 DATE 21 Jun 2004 1 BIRT 2 DATE 9 NOV 1992 2 PLAC Richmond, British Columbia 1 FAMC @F19@ 0 @I32@ INDI 1 NAME Graham David /Waller/ 2 GIVN Graham David 2 SURN Waller 1 SEX M 1 _UID 2EC0DA9102DC154DA0D9A663829DEB6A8F5D 1 CHAN 2 DATE 8 Jan 2007 1 BIRT 2 DATE 5 NOV 1950 2 PLAC Chesterfield, Derbyshire, England 1 IMMI 2 DATE 10 MAY 1980 2 PLAC Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada 1 FAMS @F19@ 1 FAMS @F97@ 1 FAMC @F87@ 0 @I33@ INDI 1 NAME Ashley (Woody) Allison /Waller/ 2 GIVN Ashley (Woody) Allison 2 SURN Waller 1 SEX F 1 _UID 69F7DCE429B83E4A965BD21333CCB7EF0484 1 CHAN 2 DATE 21 Jun 2004 1 BIRT 2 DATE 12 FEB 1995 2 PLAC Richmond, British Columbia 1 FAMC @F19@ 0 @I34@ INDI 1 NAME John Munro /Striegler/ 2 GIVN John Munro 2 SURN Striegler 1 SEX M 1 _UID A1FBD4D2EB398D4DA1A0ECEDD30B4AD7591E 1 CHAN 2 DATE 25 Oct 2001 1 SOUR @S1@ 1 BIRT 2 DATE 14 SEP 1914 2 PLAC Lumsden, Saskatchewan 1 DEAT 2 DATE 22 OCT 2001 2 PLAC Surrey, British Columbia 2 NOTE [UL:Obituary::UL][BO::BO] 3 CONT Striegler -- John (Jack), passed away October 22, 2001.

2006 1 NOTE A.A. BROCKMAN - 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 CONT 2 CONT This article was copied from the book "The Days Before Yesterday".

BROCKMAN - 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. 3 CONT 3 CONT This article was copied from the book "The Days Before Yesterday".
