From Toronto they were .~ n|accompanied by an Old Country friend I o I named Duncan McNab, a blacksmith. When `about a day s journey out, the axle of the h `wagon broke, and the, driver made up his L. mind to return to Toronto to have it re- .flpaired.

The four brothers mentioned settled on the land and cleared it. A small school was built on the corner. of one of the farms, and there Archibald Campbell taught the children of the district for about three years. Meanwhile the work of clearing and settling their farms pro- ceeded, and it was not long before many a fine community of stalwart Old Country settlers, who in the course of time have passed away but who have left their mark indelibly on the district. -_ `Born in Barrie, 1843 x , Alexander, `who has just died, was, as i we have seen, the third son of Archibald Campbell, who with his `brother Alexander, was as already stated, the first two'of the . original family who settled in Oro.
