    MARTIN, Ivan 1934
    Some Auto Crash
    A. Nelson, Almost Instantly Killed and I. Martin Dies on Way to Hospital Following The Crash
    TRUCK CAREENS OFF ROAD AND CRASHED INTO POLE
    Contents of Load Catapulted From Force of Impact Into Nearby Fields a Distance of Fifty Feet and More
    Elmira was deeply shocked to hear of the fatal accident near Baden on Tuesday Afternoon when Alexander Nelson, 39, was almost instantly killed and Ivan Martin, 43, died shortly after the track in which they were riding sideswiped a car, careened into the ditch and crashed a distance of fifty feet into a hydro pole.
    Mr. Martin, who owns a produce store in Elmira, together with his driver, Alex Nelson, left Elmira as Tuesday afternoon for Stratford with a truckload of cream, chickens and produce. On their way they approached the intersection of highway 7 and 8 and the Wellesley highway. Jacob Heinz, driving a car back from Baden, where he had cast his vote in the provincial election, was proceeding west. Coming to the intersection, he stopped his car on the right hand side of the road to allow traffic to pass before making a left turn, it is stated. He told the police he signaled, but seeing no traffic he turned slowly. Just then the truck with the Elmira men and driven by Nelson, it is stated, came along and after striking the turning car bolted across the intersection and crashed off the road into the ditch and the hydro pole. The truck was badly damaged.
    Motorists who passed some time after the accident rushed to the aid of the men in the truck. With difficulty they extricated the body of Nelson from the wreckage and found he was dead. Coroner Feick, who examined the body, stated his neck had been broken. A. Langley truck rushed Mr. Martin to the K.-W. Hospital in a dying condition. He passed away before the truck reached the hospital.
    Crates of chickens and cream cans catapulted into adjoining fields for a distance of 50 feet and more from the force of the impact. Chickens, eggs and cream were strewn along the highway. None of the chickens were killed although five crates of them were hurled through the air into the ditch. A man from the Canadian Swift Co., of Stratford, identified the bodies of the men. He took charge of the load and had it removed to Stratford.
    The Coroner has announced that an inquest will be held a week from today (Thursday). It is stated no charge is likely to be placed against Heinz, the drive of the car which the truck hit.
    Mr. Nelson had been working only several months with Mr. Martin, having been out of employment for a number of years. Mr. Martin went into a local polling station and cast his vote just before leaving on the trip, The Signet was informed.
    The truck and contents were both insured, with the Miller Insurance Agency, having been placed on both several days ago. The truck was owned by Mr. Alex Nelson, who purchased it only recently.

    Obituary: As we are preparing to go to press we are informed that Mr. Geo. H. Bauman, one of our most respected and progressive farmers, has died. Mr. Bauman was one of the earliest settlers in this neighborhood having moved to the farm on which he ended his days and part of which is within the limits of the Corporation of Elmira, in the prime of his manhood. He was known as a man of character, industrious reliable and considerate of the rights of his fellow citizens. He was very successful in his calling and acquired several farms in the immediate vicinity of Elmira. He was of a kind disposition and made many friends, who together with his wife and family of 8 sons and 4 daughters mourn his loss. Possessing a robust constitution and an energetic mind he was always active until several years ago when he was stricken by partial paralysis. Although he gradually rallied from the effects of this misfortune he was never the same afterwards repeated attacks and their effect confined him to his house a considerable part of the time. He reached the age of 72 years. His remains will be entered in the Mennonite Cemetery at Elmira, next Saturday forenoon.

    THE OLD SCHOOLHOUSE

    An interesting meeting took place the Saturday before last in the old log cabin in Waterloo Park.

    This house was, of course, the first schoolhouse in this area and stood originally on the school-house square at the corner of King and Church Streets in Waterloo. It was built in 1820 and served its purpose until 1842, when it was torn down and a 1-storey stone house was constructed on the site. The dismantled log house was erected again in Greenbush and served as a residence for a long time for the coloured man, Mr. Carroll and his family. In the course of this year, the Waterloo Park Commissioners purchased the house, moved it to their park and furnished it again as it was when it was a school-house.

    At this gathering, in addition to many other ladies and gentlemen, the following (male and female) former pupils attended, took their places on the benches, and were called to order by the 82-year-old teacher, Benjamin Burkholder, who held the scepter, or rather, the switch, from 1831 to 1842 in the old log-house: Joel Guth, 80 years old; Abraham Scherk, Blair, 79; Jakob Bricker, Waterloo, 77; Sarah Burkholder, nee Erb, Bridgeport, 75; Amos Weber, Berlin, 73; John C, Bricker, Hawksville, 71; Maria Erb, nee Quickfall, Norwich 69; David B. Eby, Waterloo, 69; Wendel Baumann, Woolwich, 68; Henry Stauffer, Erbsville, 67; Simon Beatty, Elmira, 67; Jakob Ratz, New Hamburg, 67; Israel Baumann, Berlin, 65; George Elbert, Moorefield, 63; George H. Baumann, Elmira, 63; John Devitt, Waterloo, 62; Richard Quickfall, Bridgeport, 62; Isaak Hoffmann, Waterloo, 61; Robert Barkwell, Peel, 60; Diana McMahon, nee Dekay, Berlin, 60; Thomas Quickfall, Floradale, 60; Benjamin Devitt, Waterloo, 60; Isaak Devitt, Floradale, 58; John Longmann, Peel, 57. In addition, to these, the teacher read the names of 25 pupils from the roll; they were, however, absent.

    Mr. Burkholder gave an interesting talk about the history of the old school-house, and after him, Rev. J.A. MacLachlan, Rev. J. McNair, Mr. J.E. Baumann, M.P., and Mr. Jakob Ratz spoke about the old days which brought many things out of the past to mind again. School was, as a rule, only in session in winter and the costs were borne by the parents of the children. There were few subjects taught, namely: Reading, Writing and Sums. The children heard little about language, and geography; no child had more than 2 or 3 books. The predominant language was German. The pupils learned to read and write English, but didn't understand a word of it. Among the teachers in the old school-house from 1820-1842, with the exception of Mr. Burkholder, were the following whose names are still recognized: Jephtha DeKay, Joseph Guth, John Herringer, Peter Otto, John Dobbin, Elias Eby, Robert Barber, & Joseph Eby.

    After those present, on hearing the various speeches felt themselves transported back to the past, the school was closed at four o'clock and the pupils were gathered together in front of the school and photographed as a group. On their return into the school, they found it had been transformed into a dining room with heavily-laden tables, which the old-timers thoroughly enjoyed. After everyone had chatted cordially for a while longer, the gathering broke up. The company will not meet again in complete numbers, nor in such a way.
