Pillsworth, 30,<br />
fatally assaulted<br />
in her home at<br />
Brampton on<br />
Saturday evening.<br />
Jan. <strong>12</strong>, is widely<br />

of friends not only<br />

Rutledge, retiring from his monument business in Orangeville recently on<br />
account of ill health, was in Florida with Mrs. Rutledge on a holiday hoping to<br />
regain some of his former vigor. They returned by plane for the funeral which<br />
was held on Wednesday.<br />
COMPULSORY MOTOR INSURANCE — Compulsory insurance for<br />
Saskatchewan motorists is regarded as virtually certain, reports The Financial<br />
Post. Main Point remaining undecided is whether drivers shall be allowed to<br />
choose any insurance company they prefer, or whether they will be required<br />
to deal with the Government Insurance Office.<br />
CERSWELL COW HAS MONTH'S RECORD OF 1,037 LBS. BUTTERFAT —<br />
Princess Abbekerk Texal Fayne, a member of the Holstein herd of C. J.<br />
Cerswell, of Beeton, has just completed a yearly Record of<br />
Performance test of 1,037 lbs. fat from 25,701 lbs milk, average<br />
test 4,.03% butterfat. Made on three-times-a-day milking as a<br />
five-year-old, this is the largest record reported from any part<br />
of the Dominion during the past month. Last year she stood<br />
third for fat in the honor list with her twice-a-day milking fouryear-old<br />
record of 754 lbs. milk.<br />
Her production was expected to be larger but unfortunately<br />
she suffered an injury that crippled her for a month of two<br />
and cut down her productions. She received no special <strong>ca</strong>re,<br />
running regularly with the rest of the herd.<br />
A granddaughter of the noted Lonelm Texal Fayne, she was<br />
bred by W. Witherspoon, <strong>Woodbridge</strong>, and was Grand<br />
Champion at the 1944 Simcoe County Black and White<br />
Show held at Beeton.<br />
HAVE CROKINOLE PARTY, Macville — The first of a<br />

BANQUET FOR SERVICEMEN, Maple — Mr. and Mrs.<br />
Howard Knight of Maple Villa were host and hostess to<br />
a complimentary banquet given in honor of the boys of<br />
Maple who served in the armed forces, their ladies and<br />
Maple Knit-Wit club, on Friday evening. December 28.<br />
The toast to the guests was proposed by Mr. Knight<br />
and responded to by Miss Marion Wason, president of<br />
the Knit-Wit club, and Lorne Wells on behalf of the<br />
boys. Mr. Evans of Toronto led an enjoyable sing song<br />
and Jack Holland, magician, mystified the audience<br />
with his performance. As the Knit-Wit club has<br />
ceased activities, they presented the boys with initialed<br />
wallets as a small tribute to them for the<br />
services they have enjoyed during the remainder of<br />
the evening.<br />
HOW FAR CAN A DOG TRAVEL ON HIS OWN?<br />
Several years ago T. A. Fec, a Vancouver architect,<br />
shipped his dog, a Canadian Airdale, by express<br />
from his British Columbia home to his brother-inlaw,<br />
This. Paton, at Ardrossan, a station on the<br />
Canadian National Railways, 16 miles east of<br />
Edmonton, Alta. The charges were prepaid and<br />
money given for food and <strong>ca</strong>re for Buster all<br />
the way to his destination.<br />
Time passed, however, and Buster failed to<br />
show up. The railroad company produced a<br />
receipt showing that Airedale had been delivered<br />
to Edmonton. But after that the trail ran<br />
out. Buster was given up fro lost.<br />
Imagine Mr. Fee's surprise and joy six weeks later<br />
when his Airedale <strong>ca</strong>me walking into the yard! Buster was thin and tired<br />
and foot-sore, as if he had been traveling without any rest.<br />
When his master <strong>ca</strong>me to check distances, he found the dog had covered 770<br />
miles. From Edmonton to Vancouver there was no travelled road except the<br />
railroad track, and this passes through and over three chains of mountains.<br />
Add to that the fact that two-thirds of the way hadn't any homes along the<br />
way except the railroad section houses, and it be<strong>ca</strong>me clear what a feat Buster<br />
had achieved.<br />
How this Airdale had been able to pick the right one of <strong>12</strong> railroads converging<br />
on Edmonton; how he had managed to find food through all those long<br />
weeks and how, strangest of all, he had known those steel tracks would surely<br />
lead him home will always remain one of the great mysteries of superhuman<br />
animal intelligence!<br />
SUFFERS SKATE CUT, Malton — Margaret Coulson 8-year-old daughter of Mr.<br />
and Mrs. Norman Coulson, is in the Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, as a<br />
result of compli<strong>ca</strong>tions arising from a skate cut received while playing near<br />
her house a week ago. She is now getting along very nicely.

WOODSTOCK NOSTALGIA<br />
SHOW AND SALE<br />
The Reader, The Writer, and<br />
The Lion<br />
A lion comes across two men, one reading and the<br />
other writing. The beast pounces on and devours the<br />
reader but ignores the writer.<br />
Why? Be<strong>ca</strong>use, as everyone knows, a writer cramps<br />
while a reader digests.<br />
The Anxious Poodle<br />
Poodle: “My life is a mess. My owner is mean, my girlfriend<br />
is leaving me for a German shepherd, and I’m<br />
nervous as a <strong>ca</strong>t.”<br />
Collie: “Why don’t you go see a psychiatrist?”<br />
Poodle: “I <strong>ca</strong>n’t. I’m not allowed on the couch.”<br />
The Impatient Flea<br />
Tired of waiting in the back of the line to get on Noah’s<br />
Ark, a flea jumps from one animal to another as she<br />
moves closer to the front.<br />
She leaps and leaps until she lands on the back of an<br />
elephant. The pachyderm turns to its mate and says<br />
testily,<br />
“I knew it! Here they go with the pushing and shoving!”<br />
A Penguin Walks Into…<br />
A penguin walks into a bar, goes to the counter, and<br />
asks the bartender,<br />
“Have you seen my brother?”<br />
The bartender says, “I don’t know. What does he look<br />
like?”<br />
A Panda Walks Into…<br />
A panda walks into a bar and gobbles some beer nuts.<br />
Then he pulls out a gun, fires it in the air, and heads<br />
for the door.<br />
“Hey!” shouts the bartender, but the panda yells back,<br />
“I’m a panda. Google me!” Sure enough, panda:<br />
“A tree-climbing mammal with distinct black-andwhitecoloring.<br />
Eats shoots and leaves.”<br />

A Grasshopper Hops Into…<br />
A grasshopper hops into a bar. The bartender says,<br />
“You’re quite a celebrity around here. We’ve even got a<br />
drink named after you.”<br />
The grasshopper says, “You’ve got a drink named<br />
Steve?”<br />
Chicken Prep<br />
A man walks into a restaurant and says,<br />
“How do you prepare your chickens?”<br />
The cook replies, “Nothing special. We just tell ‘em<br />
they’re gonna die.”<br />
A Duck Walks Into a<br />
Drugstore<br />
A duck walks into a drugstore and asks for a tube of<br />
ChapStick. The <strong>ca</strong>shier says to the duck, “That’ll be<br />
$1.49.” The duck replies, “Put it on my bill.”<br />
Lunch Break<br />
When a squirrel slipped into my house, I did the logi<strong>ca</strong>l<br />
thing: I panicked and <strong>ca</strong>lled my father.<br />
"How do you get a squirrel out of a basement?" I<br />
shrieked.<br />
Dad advised me to leave a trail of peanut butter and<br />
crackers from the basement to the outside. It worked—<br />
the squirrel ate his way out of the house.<br />
Unfortunately, he passed another squirrel eating his<br />
way in.<br />
Flying Problems<br />
A businessman flying first class is sitting next to a parrot.<br />
The plane takes off, and the parrot orders a<br />
Glenlivet, neat. The businessman asks for a Coke.<br />
After a few minutes, the bird yells,<br />
"Where’s my scotch? Give me my scotch!" The flight<br />
attendant rushes over with their drinks.<br />
Later, they order another round. Again, the bird gives<br />
the crew grief for being slow, and the businessman<br />
joins in:<br />
"Yeah, the service stinks!"<br />

Just then, the flight attendant grabs the pair, opens the<br />
hatch, and throws them out of the plane. As they hurtle<br />
toward the ground, the parrot says to the terrified man,<br />
"Wow, that took a lot of guts for a guy with no wings."<br />
Two babies are sitting in<br />
their cribs…<br />
Two babies are sitting in their cribs, when one baby<br />
asks the other, “Are you a little girl or a little boy?”<br />
The other baby shrugs. “I don’t know how to tell the difference.”<br />
“I do,” says the first baby. He <strong>ca</strong>refully climbs out of his<br />
crib and into the other crib, then disappears beneath<br />
the blankets. After a few seconds, he resurfaces.<br />
“You’re a little girl, and I’m a little boy,” he says.<br />
“How <strong>ca</strong>n you tell?”<br />
“Easy. You’ve got pink booties, and I’ve got blue ones.”<br />
Fast Friends<br />
My husband was driving home from work when he was<br />
pulled over for not wearing a seat belt. Two days later—<br />
same ticket, same cop.<br />
“So,” the officer said, “have you learned anything?”<br />
“Yes, I have,” said my husband. “I’ve learned I need to<br />
take a different way home from work.”<br />
The One About The Stand-in<br />
Gorilla<br />
When a zoo’s gorilla dies, the zookeeper hires an actor<br />
to don a costume and act like an ape until the zoo <strong>ca</strong>n<br />
get another one.<br />
In the <strong>ca</strong>ge, the actor makes faces, swings around, and<br />
draws a huge crowd. He then crawls across a partition<br />
and atop the lion’s <strong>ca</strong>ge, infuriating the animal.<br />
But the actor stays in character—until he loses his grip<br />
and falls into the lion’s <strong>ca</strong>ge.<br />
Terrified, the actor shouts, “Help! Help me!” Too late.<br />
The lion pounces, opens its massive jaws, and whispers,<br />
“Shut up! Do you want to get us both fired?!”

CURRENT JANUARY 20<strong>22</strong> THE WOODBRIDGE ADVERTISER PAGE SEVENTEEN<br />
Muskoka‘s Ghost Towns<br />
Most ghost town hunters seem to know the popular Muskoka ghost towns<br />
like: Germania, Uffington, Falkenburg, Cooper's Falls and to a lesser<br />
extent: Monsell and Lewisham. But there are others. Thanks to the book by<br />
Hind and DaSilva, "Ghost Towns of Muskoka", these hamlets have been<br />
brought back to memory. Here are some short bios on each..<br />
ROSSEAU FALLS — Founded on the north shore of Lake Rosseau by Peter<br />
Mutchenbacker, a pioneer from Germany, in 1877. At the mouth of the<br />
Rousseau River he built a saw and shingle mill by harnessing the power of<br />
the falls. Later he had a steam-operated outfit, which meant for a longer<br />
cutting season. There were <strong>ca</strong>bins built for the families and the mill workers.<br />
Peter's home was first made of logs, but his second home was the centrepiece<br />
of the hamlet where he opened a post office and store in 1880.<br />
There were no roads and communi<strong>ca</strong>tion was done by a mail ship. The trees<br />
were depleted by 1928 and the community went into decline. There are remnants<br />
in the bay to this day of the mill. Take Hwy 141 to Rosseau Rd 3 and<br />
drive south to the falls.<br />
DEE BANK — Another short-lived pioneer crossroads milltown. John<br />
Shannon bought land here in 1868 where the Dee River rushes into Three<br />
Mile Lake. Here he built a grist mill. Due to its strategic lo<strong>ca</strong>tion the community<br />
grew to inlcude 2 hotels alongside the bush farms. It was the largest<br />
village in Watt Township. The store and post office was run by John Barber;<br />
there was a tannery, blacksmith, church, school and pop. of 75. It was hit<br />
by two major blows- be<strong>ca</strong>use it was inland the new steamships to<br />
Windermere past it by and the railway bypassed it. Only the school<br />
remains. Take Hwy 141 to Deebank Rd. and head south to the Dee River.<br />
According to friend and fellow Ontario history buff, Gary Long, "Dee Bank<br />
was just a small mill village with a few residences, a school, a store, and of<br />
course the mills. I found a bit of the gristmill foundation on the south side<br />
of the river at the bottom of the falls, and on the north side, the barely discernible<br />
route of the road that formerly crossed a bridge at the top of the<br />
falls and angled up the hillside. The authors of the book might have found<br />
additional foundations, etc. I'm sure if you looked around hard enough in<br />
the woods near the falls, you'd find other remains, though not necessarily<br />
dating back as far as the original village.<br />
Lo<strong>ca</strong>tions of towns weren't always logi<strong>ca</strong>l in terms of terrain. Look at<br />
Bracebridge and Huntsville, the original sections piled on hills when there<br />
was plenty of flat land nearby. Usually the early growth took place closest to<br />
the feature that resulted in the settlement being there. In the <strong>ca</strong>se of<br />
Bracebridge and Dee Bank, that was the falls with its mills, and it's usually<br />
rocky and hilly close to falls."<br />
MILLAR HILL — Considered the high north country when nobody lived<br />
this far north in Muskoka. Here David Millar decided to give bush farming<br />
a whirl in the 1870s. As the trees were removed others joined the settlement<br />
on the hardest terrain imaginable. Joseph Langmeade founded a school,<br />
church and the post office (19<strong>12</strong>-1930). Fred Quinn built a sawmill on the<br />
Boyne R. which brought a boost to the growing community, but later the<br />
sawmill moved to Dwight and Millar Hill went into dire straits. Take Hwy.<br />
60 to Millar Hill Rd. and drive to the end. Foundations <strong>ca</strong>n be found on the<br />
observatory road before u get up to the summit where the radio towers are.<br />
SELDOM SEEN — Founded in the 1870s in an isolated corner of Ma<strong>ca</strong>ulay<br />
Township, south of Fawn Lake, it didn't live long. It got its name as a joke,<br />
meaning they were so far from civilization and the outside world. William<br />
Dennis was the councillor and Alfred Lee was a farmer, teacher and assessor.<br />
There was a store, small sawmill and school. In 1886 the township<br />
moved the school miles away and the villagers were very upset. They rebuilt<br />
another in its place to the dismay of the township. The school closed in<br />
19<strong>12</strong> as the villagers could no longer handle the conditions of their land.<br />
BEATTY'S SIDING — 3 km. west of Swords on the famed Booth railway<br />
was its lo<strong>ca</strong>tion. Here, 20 plus trains per day passed by. The railway<br />
housed rail workers here and a village formed with both farmers and loggers<br />
in 1894. The Ludgate Lumber Co. was the main outfit. The children<br />
went to school in Swords. Ludgate Co. moved out in 1910 and train traffic<br />
dwindled, as did the town.<br />
JERUSALEM — A true ghost town as it is hard to find even in the history<br />
books. The short-lived hamlet was founded in 1866 by Thomas Peacock<br />
deep in a forested valley on a north branch of the Muskoka River. As the<br />
land was painstakingly cleared for crops, 8 buildings were erected; but it is<br />
not known if they were part of a village or of a homestead or two. It was situated<br />
between High Falls Rd., Hwy. 11 and Falkenburg Rd.<br />
BEAR LAKE — Norwegians <strong>ca</strong>me to Canada by the 1000's. Some <strong>ca</strong>me to<br />
Muskoka and settled at Bear Lake in the 1880's. They were offered free land<br />
if they cleared it and worked at the lumber mills. They <strong>ca</strong>lled their settlement<br />
Jarlsberg, and it had a mill, school, store, post office, church and<br />
blacksmith. By 1893 the name was changed to Bear Lake. Only their St.<br />
Olaf's Church, pillars and 2 old buildings remain to this day. Take Hwy.<br />
518 to Bear Lake, east of the Nipissing Colonization Rd.<br />
HOODSTOWN —On the north shore of Lake Vernon a village formed that<br />
was meant to be a major hub for Muskoka. Railways were being built<br />
throughout the rugged terrain. Charles and Janet Hood had a vision and<br />
bought a lot of land as a speculation that 2 major railway lines would one<br />
day meet up at this spot where a small river joined Lake Vernon and Fox<br />
Lake. They <strong>ca</strong>me from Toronto as they had heard of the boom in Muskoka.<br />
Things looked promising in 1877, and by 1889 the Hoods had made a townplan<br />
with 276 lots on 9 streets. There were 3 stores, 3 churches, a post<br />
office, a sawmill, a hotel, a blacksmith and homes. But their speculation<br />
never paid off as the railways bypassed the area. The post office shut down<br />
in 1892 and the townsfolk moved to Hunstville.<br />
EMBERSON — Was the most obscure ghost town of Muskoka during its<br />
brief life. Even written accounts seem to be rumoured memories. But it did<br />
exist. In 1876 on one of Brunel Township's windy, swampy, rocky, treeinfested<br />
roads a community was formed. Henry Jarvis opened the post<br />
office the same year. The children had to travel a distance to school in the<br />
next township over. By 1900 there were 60 brave souls within its confines.<br />
The bush farms and logging <strong>ca</strong>mps lasted until 1910 and its post office<br />
until 1924. Stone foundations exist, though the area has long since been<br />
swallowed up by the forest According to Hinds and Brown it lies 2 km.<br />
north of Muskoka Rd. 11 and 2 km. east of Muskoka Rd. 7. But these directions<br />
make no sense logi<strong>ca</strong>lly. I found an old map that shows Emberson<br />
and it was lo<strong>ca</strong>ted north of Britannia Rd (Cty Rd 10) and west of South<br />
Portage Rd. (Cty Rd 9), which is now a huge forest. Got its post office in<br />
1874. Emberson wasn't really even a village, just a rural post office serving<br />
the farm families in that section. Never had a school or any businesses<br />
other than farms. The section of road that went through Emberson hasn't<br />
been open for many years, though you <strong>ca</strong>n still walk it or mountain bike it.<br />
SOUTH PORTAGE — Is a semi-ghost town mentioned in one of Ron<br />
Brown's books. Lo<strong>ca</strong>ted on the north shore of Lake of Bays it once was<br />
home to the shortest commercial railway line in the world, <strong>ca</strong>lled the<br />
Portage Railway. Its train, <strong>ca</strong>lled "The Portage Flyer", ran less than 2 kms,<br />
and ferried passengers between North Portage on Peninsula Lake and<br />
South Portage in the early 1900's. It lasted until 1958.<br />

NEWS From a Broad<br />
By Tina Johanssen Dedels<br />
Merry Christmas from the Beeton PetroCan Boys!<br />
The list of things I love about my hometown is a long one, so I won’t even attempt to rattle<br />
them all off. Instead, I’ll just name a couple of my faves. That my 92 year old mother, Hazel,<br />
<strong>ca</strong>rries a note in her pocket that says ‘If I drop dead, please <strong>ca</strong>ll Tina’, and people know who<br />
to <strong>ca</strong>ll. And that the ‘place to be’ in our town is the lo<strong>ca</strong>l PetroCan.<br />
There is a jovial group of misfits that congregate there every morning, year round, in all<br />
weather. Some good ole boys, some grumpy old men and some real characters. (My husband<br />
Matt is one.) The numbers fluctuate — the comeraderie and conversation draw people<br />
in. And the lads that work there are right in the mix. There’s a picnic table out front in summer,<br />
for crokinole or just shooting the #&% for half an hour, or half the day. The addition<br />
of a drive thru <strong>ca</strong>r wash brought a buzz of interest and a new form of entertainment.<br />
Even on a biting cold February morning you’ll find them out there in a huddle, cradling their<br />
coffees, telling stories or bitching about the Leafs. Every. Single. Morning.<br />
I think these guys have become really tight buds. The coffee <strong>ca</strong>n’t be THAT great!<br />

The Miller Times<br />
Rare and one-of-a-kind firearms<br />
made by Canadian gunsmiths pre-Confederation<br />
From straight-shooting collector, the late Don Bluth<br />
A rifle by James Monroe “Gunsmith” Jones, Canada’s only known Black gunmaker of the period.<br />
Shivers ran down the spine of auctioneer Justin Miller the first time he <strong>ca</strong>ressed the<br />
satin smoothness of a rifle beautifully crafted by James Monroe “Gunsmith” Jones,<br />
reputed to be the only Black gunsmith practicing in pre-Confederation Canada.<br />
Superb craftsmanship, solid history and untold tales of the rifle combined to overwhelm<br />
Justin, co-owner of Miller & Miller Auctions Ltd. in New Hamburg, Ontario.<br />
He and his brother and partner, Ethan, have handled the sale of thousands of pieces<br />
over the years and felt similar thrills periodi<strong>ca</strong>lly. And yet, “Gunsmith Jones’ rifle is<br />
something everyone should see,” Justin says.<br />
“Perhaps a museum will purchase it. If the rifle goes to a private collector,<br />
hopefully it will be shown to the public oc<strong>ca</strong>sionally.”<br />
The rifle was one of more than 75 pieces featured in the Firearms, Sporting &<br />
Canadiana sale hosted by Miller & Miller Auctions on Sat., Oct. 9, <strong>2021</strong>. Most of the<br />
items were from the Don and Joyce Blyth Collection, along with other owners’ sporting<br />
collectibles and choice additions.<br />
The discerning Blyths took breaks from their Guelph-area farming operation to scour<br />
estate sales, attics and barns for primitive items vital to early settlers. Don obtained<br />
his first antique rifle as a schoolboy and be<strong>ca</strong>me hooked for life. Respected as a shrewd<br />
negotiator and Canadian-made firearms expert, he had a story for every piece in his<br />
gun collection.<br />
Three days before the 90-year-old collector died on April 6, <strong>2021</strong>, Justin sat in Don’s<br />
gun room for the last of many wonderful conversations. Spellbound by Don’s recollections,<br />
the auctioneer filed away information to share later with bidders.<br />
“Don mostly collected flintlock percussion rifles, marked CW for Canada West, prior<br />
to 1866,” Justin notes. The auction items included a Hovsmovh rifle believed made by<br />
an Indigenous gunsmith; a buggy gun by Dudley Booth of<br />
Ottawa; a pistol marked Rorke Berlin; a four-barreled<br />
shotgun by Michael Mater of Chippewa; and a rifle by<br />
James Monroe “Gunsmith” Jones, Canada’s only known<br />
Black gunmaker of the period.<br />
James was one of a large family born to an enslaved man,<br />
who paid a dishonest slaveowner twice for his family’s<br />
freedom. The Joneses moved from the Carolinas to Ohio,<br />
where four sons attended Oberlin College, the first such<br />
institution to accept Black students. James graduated<br />
with a Bachelor of Science degree in 1849, the fourth<br />
Afri<strong>ca</strong>n Ameri<strong>ca</strong>n to attain this achievement.<br />
He relo<strong>ca</strong>ted across the border to southwestern Ontario, marrying Howard Township<br />
woman Emily Francis. In 1852, the couple joined free Afri<strong>ca</strong>n Ameri<strong>ca</strong>ns and es<strong>ca</strong>ped<br />
slaves creating new lives in Chatham, an important terminal on the Underground<br />
Railroad. In nearby Dresden, abolitionist, preacher and runaway slave Josiah Henson<br />
was already living on his Dawn Settlement and gaining fame as the inspiration for<br />
Harriet Beecher Stowe’s 1852 anti-slavery novel, Uncle Tom’s Cabin.<br />
Establishing a gunsmithing business, James be<strong>ca</strong>me known as Gunsmith Jones, proving<br />
his skill in making rifles and pocket-sized derringers. In those times, settlers<br />
depended on their guns for hunting food and protection against attackers, both animal<br />
and human.<br />
Desiring the liberty of all enslaved people in the U.S., Gunsmith Jones listened intently<br />
to John Brown when the abolitionist <strong>ca</strong>me to Chatham in 1858 to drum up support<br />
for his radi<strong>ca</strong>l plan: assemble an army of Blacks and anti-slavery sympathizers and take<br />
over the U.S. arsenal at Harpers Ferry in Virginia. Gunsmith Jones joined others in<br />
taking an oath of secrecy and adopting and signing a constitution with the aim of freeing<br />
4 million slaves.<br />
Before John Brown left Chatham, he entrusted his firearm to Gunsmith Jones in<br />
exchange for a $75 loan. The gunsmith wasn’t with John Brown and his small band in<br />
1859 when they successfully held the armory for less than two days against the U.S.<br />
Marines and militias. Captured, tried for treason and hanged, John Brown couldn’t<br />
collect his pawned gun. The firearm is a treasured artefact displayed by the Chatham-<br />
Kent Black Histori<strong>ca</strong>l Society and Black Mec<strong>ca</strong> Museum.<br />
Grateful to Canada’s first Parliament, credited with passing the first antislavery law in<br />
the British Empire in 1793, Gunsmith Jones produced an outstanding gift to bestow<br />
upon the Prince of Wales, the future King Edward VII, on his brief train stop in<br />
Chatham in September 1860. While the prince waited in his royal coach for the scheduled<br />
presentation of Gunsmith Jones’ dupli<strong>ca</strong>te pair of fine derringer pistols, lo<strong>ca</strong>l officials<br />
squabbled over the appropriateness of a gift made by a Black person. They decided<br />
it was not fitting and the prince departed without his present.<br />
The Chatham Tri-Weekly Planet newspaper reported soon afterward that a derringer<br />
pair by Gunsmith Jones won a medal at the Montreal Manufacturing and Trade Fair.<br />
The Chatham man was “one of six Canadian gunsmiths who had the skill.…to be compared<br />
with the best in the world,” according to James Gooding, publisher of the<br />
Canadian Journal of Arms Collecting launched in the 1960s.<br />
“The publisher also complimented Don Blyth as the dean of Canadian gun collectors,”<br />
Justin says. “We are selling Don’s copy of the Canadian Gunsmith 1608-1900,<br />
authored by James Gooding and inscribed: For Don Blyth, a student, collector and<br />
darned good friend.”<br />
