'Have you ever heard this legend of the Scugog as narrated by an aged Janetville gentleman? "The story, which was recently pub- lished, had its background or setting around this district. According to the tale which goes back to the time before Port Perry was settled, there lived on the borders of the swamp land south of Lindsay and along the shores of the upper Scugog River an old Indian of the Mississaga tribe and his two daughters, . Apparently his wife had fiiet an un- timely death while crossing. Lake Secu- gog and he was left along with the two. girls. - The old Indian was some- thing of a recluse -- he kept aloof from the other members of his tribe -in-the district and was: devoted to his daughters, They were described as tall _and- graceful;-but-also--of a re= served disposition. They had suitors aplenty, but they reject all propo- sals. . Traders from the front were struck by their wild beauty and gra- ceful carriage, and they soon became known as the "Lillies of the Mississ- aga," by those who came in to trade with the red man. : One day their father was stricken with the fever and the girls who. wait- ed on him with all tenderness, saw him pass to the great beyond. 'They too contracted the disease and in their into the swamps, where, according to the story, they perished, Their fate caused great concerna- tion among the red men in the dist- rict and the story was told that every sight the spirits of the Indian maid- ens would make their appearance in the heart of the swamp, ihtoning weird Indian' chants, their graceful figures being plainly discernable in the black- ness of the night.

Lay's victory was greeted by a-great ovation and hats were flung TT JOHN LAY in the air around Whitby's crowded town hall and the delegates sang "For He's A Jolly Good Fellow". Mr. Harris, whose name was pro- posed by A, M. Wootton and secon- ded by J. Fleming, urged those who had supported him to transfer "that magnificent support' to Mr. Lay. "Liberals Will .Come Alive" Before the voting Mr. Lay said that his vote of 9,000 in the May by-clee- tion ire which he trailed Michael Starr, was more than double the 'power in Ottawa' thought he would get.
