That whereas almost 100% of those on relief in the Township have ex- pressed their desire and willingness to work and considering the difficult times through which we are all pass- ing, we feel that this township is not in a position to give further relief (accept where there is no wage earn- er) and we as a body of ratepayers assembled do ask our Township Coun- cil to pass such legislation making it compulsory for those receiving relief to work in return, which the town- ship will try to provide, for those only who are in need, and that the Council earnestly request every citizen in the Township to grow at least enough vegetables for their own use; to secure every possible days work through the summer, to make provision for their own fuel supply and in every possible way provide for the coming Winter. And further, we would ask every rateâ€" payer who can possibly provide a few days work through these trying times to do so and so help one another. Moved by Wm. Champion, seconded by A. R. Burkholder,that this reso- lution be adopted. Carried. TENDERS WANTED Farmers who have field stones that could be used on Township roads please notify the Secretary of Relief Committee. Telephone Wm.

It was not cowardice which forced the Yeamans to Canada, for history records that young William and his father entered the fray, the former having served with General Brock at the memorable battles of Queenston Heights and Lundy’s Lane. Young Wlliam Yeamans was the grandfather of the present David Yeamans of Agincourt. 'Wlliam often told his grandson of the fine character of General Brock during the fights. “He never told his soldiers to go on, but was always to the fore, shouting ‘Come on.’ He was ever in the lead,” he said. Following the war of 1812, David Yeamans and his son, William, like most of the U.E.I. stock, turned to husbandry and took up land in Vau- ghan Township. They were not quite pleased with the location, no doubt a Crown grant for services ren- dered, and disposing of it, moved to Scarboro Township. Here William settled on Lot 27-8, Con. 3, then a tract of bush, which he and his father purchased from Nicholas McDougall. _ Don’t forget the talking pictures of the Passion Play under the auspices Congratulations from their numer- ous friends were received by Mr. and Mrs. David Yeamans, Lot 27-28, Con. 3, Agincourt, on Monday, March 27th, the auspicious ocassion being the 54th anniversary of their wedding. The history of Scarboro’s pioneer families can only date back to the arrival the first white settler, David Thomson, who with his Wife, Mary Glendinning and their four children arrived at what is now known as Bendale from “Muddy York" in March 1796. Later when the U. S. A. declared war against Britain, there arrived from the States a number of United Empire Loyalists, who re- fused to serve with the rebels, sacri- ficed their holdings in United States and came to Canada. Prominent amongst the latter was David Yea- mans and his son, William, the latter a husky youth of 17 years, who fol- lowing an adventurous career, ar- rived at New Brunswick from the Dutch settlement of Wilmington in Pennsylvania. As was the custom, generally, “wayi back” fifty years ago, the happy couple were married at the residence of Andrew Paterson, Kennedy Road, by the Rev. Malcolm McGillivray, minister of St. Andrews Presbyterian Church Bendale, Scarboro, at that time. Mr. Yeamans was the son of: David Yeamans, whose‘ ancestors set-l tled in Scarboro about 125 years ago,| whilst his bride was Joan Bertram,i daughter of Andrew Bertram of Aginâ€" court. I Here David Sr. died and William married. One of William’s children, David, married a Miss Leopard, the father and mother of the present David Yeamans of Agincourt. Mrs. Yeaman’s father, Andrew Bertram, came to Canada from Scotland and settling in Scarboro married Margaret daughter of James Glendinning, the latter being a relative of Mary Glen- dinning, wife of David Thomson, the first white settlers in Scarboro. So sparse was the population in those days that it is recorded on the grave of Mrs. Thomson. “She passed the first seven months, after their settle- ment, without seeing a woman, and the first she saw was an Indian.” Andrew Bertram served at the timel of the Fenian Raids and was with thei famous Scarboro Company when it was severely tested at Niagara at the time of the historic St. Alban’s Raid. So successful was he at the plough, that on March 26th, 1844, he was judge of the first ploughing match, held under the auspices of the Scar- boro Agricultural Society at Archie Muir’s farm, Kingston Road. WEEKLY NEWSY NOTES FROM THE AGINCOURT DISTRICT Opposite Orange Home THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO Mr. Yeamans is a noted Plowman, too, his skill being such, that he was appointed a\judge at many matches of importance. Time has taken a hand in shaping into modernism the crude methods of farming and marketing since the hap- py couple were children. The winding narrow Kennedy Road is now a high- way. Teams of oxen have been sub- stituted by the more upâ€"to-date autoâ€" mobile. The gossiping around the blacksmith’s door as ploughs were be- ing forged into shape for the famous ploughing matches is now substituted by sitting at home, and “listeningdn” Mrs. Yeamans, who is in splendid health, celebrated her 79th birthday on Feb. 17th, 1933.

Reesor of Edlgeley, Miss Emily at home and six grand- children. Mrs. W. Miller, Toronto, is a sister of Mr. Yeamans. on the radio. Yet memories of happy childhood days often flicker through the minds of Mr. and Mrs. Yeamans as they sit on the verandah, looking out on the well kept farm lands once bush cleared by their pioneer ances- tors. Mr. Jas. Muirhead’s vocal solos, “My Ain Wee House” and “At The End of The Road,” were enthusias- tically received.
