To the end of his life the Colonâ€" el wore upon his breast a silver medal. struck in comâ€" memoration of that Canadian victory. On the 27th April. 1813, Bridzford was at the fort at York waiting for ord- ers when the magazine blew up, blowing into the air two hundred of the Americans with their commander, Pike, and several of the British garrison as they were vacat- ing the fort.

On the Way suspended animation return- ed. He lived to do service for his country at Fort Erie. Chippewa and Lundy's Lane. Col. Bridgford survived his adventures for many‘ years, and was engaged in agricul- tural pursuits, In 1850 he was elected councillor for the Township of Vaughan. He was deputy-reeve from 1852 to 1858, when he succeeded Squire Gamble as reeve of the township. The Colonel died in 1868 at the age of seventy~five years. His re- mains lie in the village cem- etery. Col. Bridgford’s dau- ghter Mrs. D. C. O’Brien, a highly esteemed and intelli- gent lady with a memory as Col. Bridgford's military mantle fell on his youngest son. Mr. D. B. Bl‘ldngl‘d. who left Richmond Hill when about twenty years of age for Richmond, Virginia. There he joined the army be- fore the breaking out of the civil war, and afterwards did considerable service in the Confederate camp. He was promoted to the rank of maj- or. and subsequently was aide-de-camp to General Stonewall Jackson. At the funeral of the famous Con- federate General, Major D. B.

A knowledge of the spot where originated some discovery. or where was the scene of some remarkâ€" able event in the past that has had much to do with the development of our present surroundings, is a great fac- tor in riveting the record on the memory. The Moodie residence was erected by one, of the early settlers, Dr. Reed, in 1820. For many years before and after the tragic end of its next owner, Col. Moodie, there stood in front of the residence, as outside evid- ence of the loyalty within, a tall flagstaff from which the Union Jack floated in the breeze on every national holiâ€" day. d-Illmlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll“llll\l\l\llli\“llllllilllll\\\\\\“\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\l\l\\\\\\\\\\1\\\l\l mum““mummm“u“mm“\m\\\\\\\“\m\mmu““mm\\m““mum\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\m{I Five Convicted 0n Liquor Charges In Magistrate's Court Recently A number of liquor charges dominated the Richmond Hill Magistrate's pourt :Iuly 25. Douglas Cox, 15 Lancer: Drive, Maple, was fined $100 and costs, and had his licence suspended for three months by the Department of Transport ‘when he was convicted of im- paired driving. Cox pleaded not guilty and conducted his own defence. (Continued from Page 2) Constable William Hill of the‘ Vaughan Township Police force‘ testified that he followed Cox through Maple May 28 after he refused to lower his high light beams. Constable Hill went on to say that when stopped, Cox “fell heavily against his car when 'he got out, and he smelled when {he got of alcohol. “In my opinion his ability to drive was impaired by alco- hol.†“no. Sergeant Thomas Shields of‘ the Vaughan force stated that when Cox came into the Vaug- han police station that night, he staggered and was unsteady on his feet, and had the odor of alcohol on his breath. When Cox took the stand, he‘ told the court he had been tak- ing pills for his nerves and three beers he had earlier in the evening ‘had reacted with the pills to produce the condi- ‘tion the policemen had des- ‘cribed. “I had just driven from North Bay and I was very tired," he testified. He claimed that his job as a truck driver depended on the outcome of the trial. Magistrate Russell Pearse‘ fully reviewed the evidence be-‘ fore convicting Cox. “The court can have sympathy, but cannot ‘go on sympathy alone," he said. \ Brian Gain, of Nashville, was fined $25 and costs when he was found guilty of having tenacious as Hansard, and an excellent conversationalist. to whom the writer is indebted for much of the information contained in this narrative, died August 24th. 1906. Her remains were brought from Toronto and placed beside those of her father. To Mrs. O'Brien. Moodie‘s was a familiar face. In her girlhood days she was quite an equestrienne. Out for a ride one afternoon she was overtaken by the Colonel, who jocularly challenged her to race to a certain point in the distance. The young lady at once urged her steed to a gallop. The Colonel to his surprise found that fre- quent applications of the spurs were necessary to en- able him to keep alongside. The Colonel, however, gal- lantly allowed Miss Bridg- ford to reach the goal a length ahead. liquor in a place other than his residence. The crown attorney told the court that Cain had been found on Highway 49 May 23 with two bottles of beer in the back seat of his car. Cain pleaded guilty to the charge. All-an Cornell, of Woodbridge,l also pleaded guilty to having‘ liquor in a place other than his‘ residence. Cornell was found on Ish‘ngton Avenue May 30 with beer in the car. The crown attorney said iCornell and two other young men had been driving around Vaughan Township drinking. Cornell was fined $25 and costs. His two Vcompahions in that incident also came before the court on charges of drinking under age. Gary Moore. 19, of Wood- bridge and Kirk Killingbeck, 18, of Woodbridge both pleaded guilty, and were convicted of ‘drinking under age. They were ‘each fined $25 and costs.

The Historical Association of Toronto have brought their influence to bear upon the civic authorities so that they have planted memorial stones in many spots where the last relics of important events in the history of the city are fast becoming oblit- erated by the ever-advancing utilitarian tendency of the age. The earnest efforts of those who are now endeavor- ing to perpetuate as long as possible the remains of the Old Fort and its surround- ings will merit the gratitude of the lovers of history in generations to come. There are historic spots in many of our cities, towns and villages, and “the powers that be†should not allow them to pass into oblivion. A knowledge of the spot where originated some discovery, or where was the scene of some remark- able event in the past that has had much to do with the development of our present surroundings, is a great fac- tor in riveting the record on the memory. ‘ (Continued from Page 2) it was full of surprises, but pleasant surprises. While I do not want to be unduly parti- san, I cannot help but feel that Mr.’ Trudeau has begun in “a way that confirms our confi-‘ dence in him.

' The Gladding children, Jean, Joan and Jim have followed their parents to market ever since they've been old enough to take part. MARKET GARDENING IN FOR A TOUGH TIME Mr. Gladding thinks the small market garden- er has a harder time making a go of it today. Com- petition from the larger growers has become a fact of life and it just costs more to grow things in a small way unless one can cater to a retail outlet. “This seems to be a general trend in our society,†observed Mr. Cladding. “Once agriculture was the basis of the Canadian economy. It is no longer recognized as such. Even farming has to get bigger in order to survive." 5““““““““‘ I FREE SAFETY INSPECTION ‘ Mr. Gladding feels this is a sad state of affairs as it tends to make things concentrated in the hands of a few, to say nothing of destroying initiative and individuality. 1 l‘} & 1., M’JQï¬EWE According to Mr. Gladding a market gardener has no hours. Sometimes he and his family work half the night and sometimes all day . . . it depends on the crop and time of year. h“,“‘l““_“‘!“v Oriole Gardens specializes mostly in greenâ€" house produce and spring plants. They have cut down their extensive market gardening considerably. U Going to market is quite a thing. The Glad- dings spend,three days to get ready for Saturday which is market day. This leaves three days in which to do all the rest of the work. Many of the original market gardeners were at their stands the day I talked to Mr. Gladding'. It would take a lot of columns to do justice to the people who maintain Thornhill Market. Here are some names very familiar to the customers who go there Saturday after Saturday: C. Bowers. C. G. Palmer, Cliff Tum- er, George Sayers, the Watson, Hanson and Stuckley families, Mrs. C. Seaton and Ross Stevenson of Rich- mond Hill area and C. Dunning of Pefferlaw.
