It "iss very" probable that a radio concert will be given by one of Ham- ilton's authorities in radiophony. Per Peck ONTARIO printed; $8 was paid for four weeks maintenance of the foundling baby; and. a motion was passed, creating the first board of works for the vil- lage. The motion is indicative of the "mover", which word occurs many, many times throughout the proceed- ings. The motion reads: "Moved by Wm. Forbes, seconded by B. R. Nelles, that H. H. Anderson Jr. be ap- pointed collector without salary, also poundkeeper and John K. Duval con- stable and health inspector; and the Teeve, E. J. Palmer and thef‘mover” be a board of works to carry out the work required * * * *." . At the June meeting nothing of note; occurred except the motion above re-l ferred to re road opening; and $8 was ordered paid for the upkeep of what is 'designated as "the corporation baby'." . At the July meeting it was moved by Forbes and Terryberry "that the" mover be authorized Io buy two pair of handcuffs." In Septem- ber the council was named a commit- tee to purchase a tire engine; and in October the members were perhaps all busy coon hunting or something as the meeting fizzled out tor want of a quorum. On Dec. 5 J. P. Muir was paid $7.50 for assessing and other work. (Wonder if got rich?) On Dec. 12 a bylaw was introduced "to prevent the running at large of swine, horses, bulls or rams." Cows were apparently still privileged but the bylaw was laid over. The road between lots 10 and 11 again came up athhis meeting. The Rev. J. G. Mur- ray ha'd petitioned that it be not opened thriugh his property and after his explanation it was "Moved by Wm. Forbes, seconded by E. J. Palmer that this council waive its position as to the question ot time passed since the passing of the bylaw ot the town- ship ot Grimsby regarding the open- ing of the road allowance between lots 10 and 11 from the Queenston and (grimsby stone road to the lake in or er to give the parties opposed to the opening of said road allow- ance an opportunity to move to quash said bylaw." Yeas-Forbes) and Palmer; nays---Ne11es and Terryberry. The reeve contended that both parties should be heard and refused to vote and the motion was left on the table. The minute book' does not show whether there was an election or not but the same quintet occupied the chairs" in 1877. At the first meeting E. M. Mihell applied tor the position of clerk at the same salary as had been paid Clerk Randall the year previous and Forbes and Palmer mov- ed that he be appointed which carried. After a motion and amendment the committees were named as follows: Finance - Reeve, Forbes, Nelles, Board of Works-Reeve. Terryberry, Palmer. Relief-Terr/error, Nelles, Forbes. At the February meeting W. F. Clarke was appointed assessor at $8 a year; and Rev. Dr. T. Bolton Reade was appointed as high school trustee. - , Councillor Forbeswas nothing) if not consistent in his endeav.or to" gee after the tavern keepers. ~Again linr 1rebruary,,4877, he arranged, a special meeting of the council in order'. to ’in- troduce a bylaw to limit‘the" number of licenses and regulate (upward) _ the license fee. The tee had been $60 and_the bylaw read $90, and wak red. ferred to a committee of the whole. The Committee amended it to read $80, and reported;' whereupon it was mov- ed by 'Forbes and \Palmer that" the $80 be expunged and/$90 be inserted,! but Nelles, Terryberry and the reeve voted against' it and the raise from sixty to eighty dollars” "was passed. At' the March meeting B. R. Nelles gave notice of a bylaw to open up Depot street across thejailway, and after the first meeting it was laid over for report of the board of works at the next meeting, at which meeting the railway company was ordered to open the street. But "he Railway‘ company heads' thought otherwise and did mot comply, and contention. again started in the council. A special meeting was called for April ‘9 to make further moves to have street opened, but Forbes and Terry- berry promptly moved that the meet- ing adjourn. They were the only two to vote for it and the motion was lost. Palmer and Nelles then moved that the council meet the' representa- tives of the Great Western railroad and have arrangements as discussed with them previously, put in writing, the reeve voting ' for the motion. Several motions were made by Forbes and Terryberry against the arrange- ment which were all defeated on the same division, but the matter was finally adjusted by B. R. Nelles giving his personal bond securing to the village the use of his lane (now Rob- inson street from Main to John) and the opening up of John street; but this did not occur until the June meeting. MAYBE LADDERS jlflWlill At the July meeting the board of works reported and a motion was put authorizing the expenditure of $450 for sidewalks, eac. for the year. And again the council divided: yeas Palmer, Nelles, Terryberry; nay Forbes. At this meeting (get this) the "Board of Health" was instructed to examine the "hook and ladder wagon" and report what state it is 1n. 8 The year 1878 saw a change in the council, the members being John H. Grout reeve, William Forbes, Edgar J. Jalmer, Beverly R. Nelles and Ed- ward E. Loosley councillors. At the first meeting E. M. Mihell was reap- pointed clerk, while at the February meeting the following officers were appointed: W. F. Clark assessor, H. H. Anderson collector, S. Whit- taker,' C. J. Bates, Joseph Chambers fenceviewers, Ralph Walker pound- keeper. Committees for the year were: Finance -.-.r- Reeve, Palmer, Loos1ey. Board of Works-Forbes, Loosley, Neeles. Relief and Health-- Loosley, Palmer, Nelles. Fire - Nelles and councillors. James Doran was appointed high school trustee. Early in 177 the council had or- dered a tin ox made in which the clerk carried the village books; and that tin box was a familiar sight for many years. In March, 1878 another tin box was ordered in which to keep the tracing of the village map made (Continued from page THE INDEPENDENT, GRIMSBir, ONTARIO 1) by T. C. Brownjohn. How different from today when a vault with as many cubic feet as there were cubic inches in those tin boxes would be none too big for the' town require- ments. . Another theory to prove that it was not professional men who did the work is that a man who makes a business of this line of work always studies his job, or the place he in- tends to attack for several days be- fore committing the deed. Working on this theory, a professional would probably spend ten days to two weeks in the vicinity of the E. D. Smith plant and during that time -would have found out that this firm paid its wages on Thursdays; that the pay- master alWays came to Grimsby V tor the payroll on Thursday afternoon; that the payroll or other large sums of money were never kept in the office; that not ten per cent. of the mammoth amount of business trans-" acted by this firm was handled in cash; that in order to get the payroll it would mean a daylight hold up of the paymaster. Having found this out the "prof" would have never tackled the job.

Batting firs on a ss,buke4)yrrieket, the Saints knocked up 18 before Griffin was bowled, but Dewberry made a nice stand for 18, and Jett when the score stood at 30. At,1this stage Buckingham and Nutt, who made his first appearance in league cricket, formed a partnership, which yielded 82 runs. Both men played really de- lightful cricket scaring 1treely all around the wicket, but Buckingham, when within two of his Iialt-century, misjudged a slow one, and lost his middle stump. Nutt,' who scored 29, left a few moments, later, Ibeing clev- erly stumped by Ryan. After this the only batsmen to do anything were Church, who played a stylish inning tor 9 (not out), and Howard q. The Grimsby inning opened dis- astrously, tor with his first three balls, Percy Howard bowled White- law, Wolfenden and Major Ashton, thus performing the "hat trick", a re- markable piece of ‘work.
