On the 29th of May, 1830, the yonng conple took the oxen and hitched them to a springless wagon and drove to Preston about 12 miles distant. There they were married by Squire â€" William Sceollfe, theâ€" local magi«trate, . who . wa« officially en , powered to perform the ceremony, as there were no miniaters in that «uv»l tion of the country. For a honeyâ€" moon they drove all the way to Dun: das where they visited with friends ! and relatives. Then they drove all , the way back again through the swampe, over atony new roade in‘ which the stumps were sometimes left «ticking out. They thus travelled | over 100 miles on their trip.

Every seaâ€" con saw the nsual preserving of the luscions fruit of their orchard, which was produced by the carefully attendâ€" ed â€" trees. _ Theâ€" Millers were quite widely known for their customary carly rising. A pioneer log shanty built in 1828 near New Dundee would be about 12 hy S feet with a «lanting roof of small â€" split Basswood â€" trees. ‘The cracks between the logs were stuffed with mos« . There was usually one opening at the side of the structure for the window which was of glass panes 8 by 10 inches. A most primiâ€" five door kept the cold out. ‘The chimney was made with eticks plastâ€" evred over with clay. The fire was usually bmilt on a large flat atone veneath the chimney. The table was built by leaving a trimmed stump in veneath the chimney. The table was built by leaving a trimmed stump in the centre of the house and after drilling two holes in the wall logs, tudely cut planks were laid from the board on the sticks projecting from the hole« to the stump. In one corner stood a rude bed, and on the wall hung a rifle. In anâ€" ofher corner stood an axe, much worn from conetant use. Thus was the average pioneer home furnished in the early 19th century. The food consisted generally of venison, potatoes and coarse home: made bread, which was baked in the ved hot ashes of the fireplace.

On the Aill where the old school used to stand was erected a cottage where an old Gerâ€" man couple resided. The quaint couâ€" ple were well liked, and curious stoâ€" ries of how they had to use two or three steps to climb into bed are ofen related by the descendants of persons alive during there life span. The reason given for the necessity of the steps, was, that the old couple used to pile high the bedstand with luxurious feather ticks, until they were no longer able to get up, unasâ€" siited. The man was known as Yohon Oxohauer but went by the name Of Brush. He was one of Geo. Wegenast‘s assistants. As there were no roads to the vilâ€" lage, Mr. E. W. B.
