Thefirst le gai Catholie wedding It was the first legal Cathoiic wedding in the home of Patrick McGuires home in Miilbrook and for McGuire the thoughts of a Catholic community in the area. i ne past two Fnlday evenings have been taken up with outdoor theatre. First it was attendance at the Bethany Outdoor Theatre and then this most recent Friday evening it was attendance at the Fourth Line Theatre, just outside Millbrook in Cavan Township for their presentation of The Cavan_ Blazers. the Fourth Line Theatre group was formed in January of 1992 and had a most successful summer last year with their, production of Thie C- an Blazers. t was s0 popular that it is being repeated again this summecr wîth the addition of Moodie Trail. The production of the Cavan Blazers plays Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings through to August 29th with curtain timie 6:45 p.m. The Moodie Trail piays Saturday and Sunday afternoon from Juiy l3th to September l2th with the show starting at 1 p.m. Both piays are based on local history and present a vivid look at that history, especialiy so The Cavan Blazers. The theatre group packs a lot of expeience both on stage and behind the scenes. t is by no means an amateur group as one soon finds out sitting in the audience. The actors and actresses are welI cast and certainly make the most of the positions they find themselves in during the course of the story of confliet between Catholics and Protestants in Cavan -Township. t is a vivid portrayal of past history and conflict in Cavan, Township dating back to 1819. Patrick Maguire heads up the, Catholie front when moving to Millbrook and was determined to establish a Catholie parish in the community which was then predominately Protestant and s0 remains to even this day. Maguire was instrumental in havîng a small Catholic community estabiished in Cavan Township so as numbers were prescrit 10 warrant a parish and a church. But there was another force ,w;th cqual l.kt tiination tit a 1But also in attendance as sheeverees were members of the Cavan Blazers who eventuaily broke up the party with their Catholic parish would not be established in Cavan Township. it was a group of young Pro- testants farmers known as The Cavan Blazers who had been indoctrinated with atrocities committed against their parents in Ireland. There was no give and finally no take and the community of Catholies were driven out of the community. Maguire finally admits defeat and in his final words with Dan Swain, leader of the Cavan Blazers. But bothi men recognized that much had heen lost from lack of undcrstanding and lack of communication. There were many highilights during the evening of theatre in the outdoors none the least being dhe range of performners age-wise to even babes-in-armis. This added great credibility to the story and the performers. Nothing was left to chance that this was a true recording of history dating hack to 1819.

The 4th Line Players are for real and if its theatre your initerested in'thený a trip to Cavan is a must.

This proposai is one of the largest that the Totten Sim Hubicki ý cons ulting firm has undertaken, states board chairman, John Hubicki. Work on this project wil represent about ten percent of the workload at Cobourg with the remainder of the work being done in the main office in Whitby. Lt has been estimated that if the consortium in successfui in obtaining the final contract it could mean employment for 10 to 15 people at the Cobourg office for the next three to five years.

The competing consortium is called the Ontario Road Development Corpor ation. It is now expected that the first phase of the highway couid be completed within five years. This phase wouid take a link west of Toronto from 401 highway to highway 48 near Markham.
