John, James and William, located on neighboring homesteads on the Ema side of` the town line south of Thornton, -and commenced to clear the land. In the lapse of years their _-farms have passed into other hands, but the log home of Mrs. Scott's.father, James `Gillrie, is still standing. It bears mute witness to the pioneet? life which so few of us -understand; andwhich fewer apprec- iate as they should.. -As one looks upon thevnow deserted and dismantled old house` he is led to wonder, too, if the devoted mother who once there watched over her brood of girls and boys did not sometimes long for a smell of the salt sea. For Mrs. Gillrie was the only member of the Casey family to leave Nova Scotia for Ontario. uc uuxaucu um course In Manitoba In 1913 at the age of eighty. 3M1`. Scott s mother ; was Emily Stiver, whose family was closely connected with the Eckharts, Springs, Bow- mans, Fielders and other old Markham set~ , tlers. - Quite early in -the nineteenth cen- V tury there was a -migration from Pennsyl-i , vania into the Tp. of Markham. A better ' 1 class of pioneers never appeared in any country beneath the sun.` Intelligent, re- sourceful,- industrious, thrifty, God-fearing, they soon made the desert to blossom as the rose. Their brothers -and their fore- bears in Pennsylvania had the same high character. And the American historian. in dealing with the people who really found- ed the Republic, points to the Pilgrims, the Puritansand the so-called Pennsylvania Dutch. The word so-called is inserted - advisedly. For these earliest dwellers in the old Quaker State were certainly not Dutch." Almost to a man they came from Switzerland or the Palatinate; and some of their descendants h-ave preserved the records which connect them with the Swiss cantons. This sturdy stock have made a notable contribution to the civiliz- .ation of this continent, clirst in the settling of Pennsylvania, and then, in a lesser de- gree, in the opening up of Ontario. Mr. Scott found his bride_in Thornton, in the person of Etta, daughter of James and Harriet `(Casey) Gillrie. James Gillrie was also a` -native of Northumberland, where he`was born in 1808. With his =father and brothers he came to Nova Scotia. Here, . in Hants County, he was married, Dec. 31, 1838.

While it i one of the comparatively modern _lnStltl1tlOnS, few have made greater strides in development than it. \ Some of our oldest inhabitants may still remember when the first steam locomotive was imported and tried out, and undoubtedly many can recall the time when railway service was very crude and meagre. Records show that the first railway charter in Canada was granted in 1832. J n 1836 the first railway, which was sixteen miles long. from La Prairie" on the St. Lawrence to St. John on the Richelieu. was opened for traffic. The rails, unlike the solid steel ones of to-day. weighing 100 lbs. to the yard, were of wood, with a strip of steel spiked on the top. , The first year of operation, horses were used. but in l837.a steam locomotive was imported and putinto service Ten years later there were only 54 miles of road open for traic. However, in A853 there began a cat era of railway construction. brin ing in its wake development and colonization. To-day the people of Cana a, in theilrdCanadian National-Grand runk Railways, own over 22,000 miles of road, the greatest railway system in the wor . - To keep up th_is daily_ service via Qttawa, Win_nipeg Saskatoon and`!-Edmonton. it is necessary to maintain 14-trains, 10 of which are In active SCFVICQ all the time. the other four bemg used as guard trains. To equip the trains actively in service it takes I0 locomotives. 30 baggage or express cars. 10 colonist cars. 10 tourist cars, 26 standard` sleepers} 10_dining cars and I0 observation_-compartment can--in all about $3,500,000 worth of equipment., A crew_of 190 men nsneeded to operate these trams. _. The route of The Continental Lim_ited"_ traverses six of the provinces of the Dominion. From Montreal 13 passes through the fampun Cobalt mining drstrret andthe pulp forests of Northern Ontario. via Ottawa, North Bay and -Cochrane. to Winnipeg, thence contrnurn across some of the richest farm lands of the prairie provinces via Saskatoon [and Edmonton. -' It then proceeds t rough the Northern Canadian Rockies via jasper and`_Moung. Robson Parks and follows down the Fraser Valley to Vancouver, 7 . With the passing of the years and the ever increasing mileage have also come many changes in railway equipment. From the rakish little engine used in 1853. modern invention hasevolved the mighty Pacic type of locomotive. weighing 407,700 lbs., and having eight powerful driving wheels, 69 inches in diameter, used to-day. Wooden construction has given way to solid steel construction, and to-day the great `transcontinental ier, "The Continental Limited." operated by the Canadian National Railways. is equipped with practically all the comforts and con- veniences ofva modern-hotel. This premier train provides a daily transcontinental service in both directions between Montreal and Vancouver, and is called "The Continental Limited." as signifying that it travels across the continent.
