The first Ilulel. or rather combination 1-fllnlt‘l and uouuuercial house in our vil- lage, was opened up by our old friend. Ml'. Abner Miles, in 1803, (III Int. {5 Markham.

Uver that platform has reeled many a drnukuu mun. nud injuries havx- been rec-aired whlch rwulted in death As the stoning of Illt‘. road proceeded north. our Village stillcoutiuued to be the pines of gathering for puyvbuases and men until it become a salurualia. Of all the lwdlords of this hotel, out. of immense re~ ccipts, none cl‘er made a fortune, Very law a. competence, and many fell a, prey to their own uuprudeucn and died bank- rupt in p'JCket, body and soul. The old bulldillg went down below the fire fiend in 187], it was supposed by tho band of an incendiary. If those walls had left behind them an autobiography of what they had Witness- ed during tiny years of their existence ‘t would have revealed Some startling facts that would have thrown: timion into the ahada. \\ as Seventy-fire years ago, the site now oc- cupied by the large and conimodiuus building, withull its well-dawned conven- iences for the comfort of the travallmg' public, called the Palmer House, wus a vacant spot known as the (public lot), owned by Mr. Jamua Miles, and intended g for church purposes. The first building‘ erected on the lot was the third hotel, and , dates back to almost the beginning of the century. It was built and owned by Mr. . John Clark, who ran the distillery on lot. 4‘}, built in 18”. when the landlord «i the lwtel ran the supply department that his customers got ‘ 1hr: "stuff" pure and unadulterated, and 1 minus the poisonous inn-movements of ‘ modern days. An honest landlord in rhuql llult'l, of u Ian-r date, was z~~kwl by Hi Illralv chiller ‘ If ill: lmd any good “lulu key.“ "No .‘" he replied “There is i,'u‘ Such a thing as y/lel “mm-y; but we' \\'»- may supp me that . J Balsam, etc. ' donut Lnlh: uninmv-u dealers [Single copies, 3 cts ._ “h. No. 28. have some of the best tlmt is going." This house has clnnged hands more fre- quently than any other hotel in the vil- lage, but in it there has been an interrupt- ed succession of landlords for seVeuty years, one of whom had been the unfort- uuutu tenant of Montgomery's Hotel when it was made too hot for its occu- pants in the rebellion of 1837. This, like all the onginal hotels in our village. was built with the old-fashioned fire-place, with its capricious chimneys. wide-brick jams and broad, stone hearth. Wood was then a superfluity, and the prodigality with which thou huge logs were heaped on the fire, would he considered serious extravagance now-a-days. The landlord, anxious to ulease, would, as an encour- agement to each new arrival, with his Ions: iron poker give an extra. poke to the back-log and look with self satisfaction on the grunt blaze, an it roared and sparkled up the throat of the Wide chimney, illum- uniting the "but" and its rows of glitter- ing glass and polished pewter with an in- viting brilliuucy, until the tuliow-dip, the only "light of other days" would pole to a modest glimmer m the presence of a radiance superior to its own. The daily newspaper Was then a household luxury enjoyed, but by a. fewâ€"~tlie receipt. of the latest news depende on “interviewing” the latest passing traveller, so these cheery public lire place-s were the “news depots" of those duys, where markets, events past. and pdsulliu, were discussed each evening, interspersed with personal experience of "roughing it in the bush" by the neighbors, illustrated occasionally by “tales from my landlord.” The original building underwent many changes. hazing been rebuilt, refilled and finally removed to make way for its present haudsmne, wall-furnished and commodlous successor. The fine struc- ture, the Lorne block. and its places of business, the tire hull, the council cham- ber and the court of justice, is a vast. im‘ provement on the old, lung driving-shed and ruinousluokiug buildings that for- mcrly disgraced the from. Wealth and good taste are wonderful revolutionizers and dilapidated old-timers have to clear the track to make way for modern im- pruvemeuts.
