In Markham Township alone, there are twelve known private cemeteries that have fallen into disuse and ruin. And because there are those who realize the indignity and desecration that has come to these lands once marked as hallowed, a committee has now been formed to investigate con- ditions and present a report to Markham Township Council to see what can be done to remedy these sadly neglected estates. Deputy-reeve Wilfred Dean, Chairman of Markham Township Property Committee and Messrs. Charles Boynton, Willard Simp- son and Charles Rodlck have already toured the concessions and "The Liberal" spent a good part of another day with the de- puty-reeve taking pictures and tramping in and out of what ap- peared to be pastures and scrub The picture shown above shows a "better" section of the Reformed Church cemetery, with Mr. Dean holding the scroll top of (any) one of the three stones seen in the picture. 7 Another cemetery visited, on the Ninth Concession, was in a neglected corner of an open field, one acre in size. It must have been a beautiful place at one time -â€" for on three sides are rolling green farmlands â€" .but now the field stones which were used by the pioneers, with dates and names to mark the resting piece of loved ones, are strewn among gravel and rocks and cattle have apparently wandered in and out among the graves breaking up the marble markers â€"â€" be- cause there is no fence.

Stole Bread â€" Shot Those were terrible days. As Peter relates, there were times when you would look out of a window and see police chasing a man. Catching him, they would shoot him there and then in pub- lic and in cold blood. Later it would be learned the man shot had committed the crime of steal- ing bread for a starving family. There were many scares and the strain was terrific all through the years. During the last year of the war. the Nazis became desperate for labour and took the entire male population on Whom they could lay hands where the men were sufiiclently able bodied. They were taken off to labour camps to step up the German war ef- fort. Eludes Arrest Peter eluded arrest and joined the Jewish couple in hiding in his own house. Now life was even more of a strain. His mother once visited the house without ever knowing these people were hid- den there. Not even a mother could be trusted with such in- formation. An innocent passing on of the facts to a friend might lead on to discovery. Thus they lived until the Al- lied Victory and Germanys un- conditional surrender. The coup-l le had survived through four years of being hidden and had escaped numerous times as the Germans searched. They left the house to build a new life for themselves . . . the lives they owe to Peter. Commissioned In Army _ Peter went to England and Joined the Expeditionary Force as an M.T. Instructor attaining the rank of Captain. He served in Glasgow 8; on Salisbury Plains and other historical centres until sent back to Holland to help with the army there. Finally on demobilization he re- turned to his home and rebuilt his business. He sold out in 1953' & decided to emigrate to Canada. Naturally after arrival here. he always wanted to strike out for himself but first be bad'to enter as an apprentice. He served with the Drug Training Company while his wife worked for Simpson’s. They have now been naturalized as Canadians. Obtains Licence In 1956 Peter sat for the On- tario College of Pharmacy Exam- inations for his Canadian Licence in Pharmacy and obtained this without difficulty. Peter and his wife have since adopted two Can- adian orphans, Patricia Iris, aged 11, and Marguerite Rose, aged 9, since they have no children of their own. In the last few days he has achieved his ambition and es- tablished the fine new pharmacy on the Allencourt Shopping Pla~ za. Because such a large business requires more than one, Peter has entered into partnership with a young man called William (Bill) Lazenby. Bill lives at 433 North Taylor Mills Drive, Beverley Ac- res, Richmond Hill. Born at Kingston Ontario he was educat- ed at Belleville. He attended the College of Pharmacy of the Univ- ersity of Toronto and graduated in 1957. He worked for G. Tam- blyn’s until he joined in partner- ship with Peter. Marries Customer Bill met his wife as a customer in 1951 and they were married in 1952. He says that his own suc- cess in college he owes to his wife Evelyn who was a constant source of encouragement and.in- spiration. They have a little girl of two Carolynne. Bills wife has a story of her own too. She re- turned to Germany in 1938 on a visit to her parents who were Germans. Could Not Leave With the outbreak of World War II Evelyn found she was not able to leave the country. She 1955 ..,__ .5. ram is w coupon .

Later her parents were able to ship her to the Alps to attend a boarding school. Her father worked for the Allied occupational forces having no sympathy with the Nazis. She finally returned to Canada in 1948. Peter and Bill met originally through .mutual pharmacist friends and are now close friends as well as coâ€"pnrtners and man- agers of the store. Peter has held another ambi- tion since he was 20 years of age. He has fulfilled this ambition too â€"- to own an MG sports car. His hobbies are amateur mov- ies. antiques and guns. He has one of the finest collection of an- tique guns to be seen anywhere. He likes Canada enormously. Says that too many Canadians don't realize “how good their country is". Bill's principal hubby is stamp collecting and he will be glad to discuss pliilately with any other fans who care to give him a call. The store is 40 by 60 feet and is modernly equipped. The dls~ play of goods is set out for cus- tomers‘ convenienoe on all metal fittings which are adjustable. An acoustic ceiling is installed with the decorations in pastel shades of beige and sandalwood. Apart from all kinds of medi- cal equipment and stocks, the store offers a wide range of fan- cy goods. toys gifts, cards and magazines, newspapers, baby, women‘s and men's needs in the fields of toilet equipment beauty etc., including a complete cos- metics line, as well as candles and ice cream. And thus another story is told of the wonderful people who serve Richmond Hill. And yet the story is only half told. How can the fears, the trials, the day to day, hour to hour strain of such experiences as here related ever be put down on paper. We can only touch the fringe of it. But it is good to know that such people live among us, and free of such fears.

Editor" Too Many Ignore Stop Signs Dear Mr, Editor: The editorial that appeared in your paper September 3. 1959. “Especially for Motorists" is most commendable and timely. I am sure the fine sentiments so ably expressed will be greatly apprec- lated by your readers. In this connection may I voice concern for the safety of young- sters and oldsters in our neigh- borhood. Some time ago a stop sign was erected at the intersec- tion of Lynett Crescent and Wind- burst Gate. Only a very few of our esteemed and respected citi- zens obey the stop sign. Since the demerif point system was adopted in Ontario, and since falling to obey a stop sign will add three points to the driving record of a motorist. it would take only four convictions to accumu- late twelve points which would bring suspension of the privilege of driving. The point system was designed to protect pedestrians and careful motorists from the negligent. irresponsible drivers who abuse the privilege. Such as those who deliberately disregard and ignore the sign at the inter- section I have mentioned. By copy of this letter to the local chief of police I am draw- ing their attention to a very ser- ious situation they could correct. There are some resident cars on Lynett Crescent that NEVER stop at the sign. These same cars are observed daily making reckless left turns with no regard for CHILDREN. bicyclists or other vehicles. One particular car, which NEVER stops, has narrow- ly missed crashing two neighbor cars. I am sure the responsible citi- zens of our community will thank you for your effort, and may I express my personal thanks for this space in your paper. Owen C.
