This hotel has been the scene of pretty lively times. Up to 1850 Yonge St. had not been macadam- ized further north than what is known as Lymburner's Corners, a mile and a quarter south of our village. A Government grant then To this hotel the exhumed budy of the murdered Nancy Montgom cry, of whom a detailed account in the Kinnear murder tragedy was given in the Liberal, was brought for a post mortem exam- ination. a sight never to be forgot- ten by those who witnessed it, and iere the jury sat during the in- vestigation. Another old landmark, which has now disappeared, was a hotel built where the tenement stands at the south end of the village. It was the first frame building built in our village and tenanted when our village was in its infancy. It was a large_sized building. and, with driving-shed and stables. cov- ered a wide space on the front. The first hotel, or combination of hotel and commercial house in our village was opened up by our old friend, Mr. Abner Miles, in 1802, on lot 45 Markham. The owner died in 1806, when from a public, it became a private resi- dence. The next was built by Col. David Bridgford, a hero of 1812, on lot 47. near where the Temperance Hall now stands. This home Was a resort for military gentlemen and early tourists to and fro between the lakes, and it disappeared as a public institution when its owner, of whom we have spoken more largely in previous letters, retired to agricultural pur- suits. As soon as Yonge street became passable for vehicles the necessity to the travelling public for half- way houses became apparent, and there were plenty along the line of travel who were ready to keep op- en house for rest and shelter to man and beast. Perhaps there are but a few in- stitutions established in a civilized community more popular and real- ly more necessary in that com- munity than a commodious and well--kept hotel. To the farmer, the merchant, the mechanic, as they go abroad for business, to the agent and the commercial travell- er the man of work and the man of pleasures, to the poor man and to the millionaire, a comfortable hotel isa necessary and an attrac- tive stopping place. And the at- tentive hostler, the accommodat- ing waiters and the air of welcome which surrounds such a place stimulates a traveller in his an- xiety to get there. If there is no place like home, a good hotel is next to it and were it not for the deliterious articles sold there they would be safe as well as attractive resorts to the man of business and to the man of leisure.

The fine structure, the Lorne Block, and its places of business, the fire hall, the council chamber and the court of justice. is a vast improvement on the old, long, driving-shed and ru- inous-looking buildings that for- merly disgraced the front. Wealth and good taste are wonderful rev. olutionists and dilapidated old- timers have to clear the track to make way for modern improve- ments. This house has changed hands more frequently than any other hotel in the village. but in it there has been an uninterrupted suc- cessi’on of landlords for seventy years, one of whom had been the unfortunate tenant of Montgom- ery’s Hotel when it was made too hot for its occupants in the rebell- ion of 1837. This, like all the or- iginal hotels in our village. was built ,with the old fashioned fire- place, with its capacious chimneys, wide brick jams and broad stone hearth. Wood was then a super- fluity, and the prodigality with which those huge logs were heap- ed on the fire, would be consider- ed serious extravagance now-a- days. The landlord, anxious to please, would, as an encourageâ€" ment to each new arrival, with his long iron poker, give an extra poke to the back-log and look with self-satisfaction on the great blaze, as it roared and sparkled up the throat of the wide chimney. illuminating the “bar” and its rows of glittering glass and polish- ed pewter with an inviting brill- iancy, until the tallow dip, the only "light of other days" would pale to a modest glimmer in the presence of a radiance greater than its own. The daily newspa- per was then a houshold luxury enjoyed by but a few â€" the re- ceipt of the latest news depended on “interviewing” the latest pass- ing traveller, so these cheery pub- lic fireplaces were the “news de- pots" of those days, where mar- kets. events past and passing, were discussed each evening, intersper- sed with personal experience of “roughing it in the bush" by the neighbours. illustrated occasionfi ally by “tales from my landlord." It was built and owned by Mr. John Clark, who ran the distillery on lot 43, built in 1811. We may suppose that when the landlord of the hotel ran the supply depart- ment that his customers got the stuff “pure” and unadulerated and minus the poisonous improvements of modern days An honest land- lord in this hotel at a later date. was asked by a thirsty caller “If he had any good whiskey?" “No,” he replied, “there is no such thing as good whiskey; but we have some of the best that is going." Seventyâ€"five years ago the site now occupied by the large and commodious building with all its well-devised conveniences for the travelling public, called the Pal- mer House, was a vacant spot known as the (public lot), owned by Mr. James Miles, and intended for church purposes. The first building erected on the lot was the third hotel, and dates back to al. most the beginning of the century. If those walls had left behind them an autobiography of what they had witnessed during fifty years of its existence it would have revealed some startling facts that would have thrown fiction into shade. gave it a start toward consumma- tion. In its construction a large number of men were employed. and many of these, navvies of var- ious nationalities, boarded at the hotel. The drinking and fighting were something extraordinary. The men were paid their wages on Saturday afternoon and the most of it was spent in a general car- ousel on Saturday nights and Sun- days. The road ran so close to the building that it laid bare its foun- dation, necessitating a platform six-feet in height. all along the front of the building. Over that platform reeled many a drunken man, and injuries0 were received which resulted in death. As the stoning of the road proceeded north, our village still continued to be the place of gathering for pay-bosses and men until it be- came a saturnalia. Of all the landlords of this hotel, out of the immense receipts, none ever made a fortune, very few a competence, and many fell a prey to their own imprudence and died bankrupt in pocket, body and soul. The old building went down before the fire fiend in 1871, it was supposed by the hand of an incendiary. (To be continued) Following the morning business session. a very interesting progress report was issued by the past pres- idents of the various clubs in the county. The activities of the clubs were many and varied and includ- ed the sponsoring of a glee club, farm entrance improvement pro- ject. the sponsorship of calf and farm machinery clubs, the direc- tion of the Junior section of Mark- ham Fair, a fashion show and many others. Criticisms and ways and means of improving Junior Farmer activities also proved very interesting and constructive. Guest Speaker Following the noon lunch, David Pelletterio of Milton, R. R. 6, and President of the Ontario Junior Farmers’ Association, was intro- duced by Carl Boynton, as guest speaker. Mr. Pelleterio dealt with the qualities of leadership and At the Anuual Meeting of the York County Junior Farmers’ As- sociation held at the Department of Agriculture.
