    Notes:

    Death of Mr. Stephen Moffatt - Not unexpectedly, for he has been failing for some time, this well-known old resident of North Dumfries, and we may almost say of Galt - for his face was a most familiar one in the town - passed to his rest on Thursday morning at 7 o'clock, aged 83 years and 1 month. Mr. Moffatt was a native of Roxboroughshire, Scotland, and came to this country with his parents about the year 1814. When they landed in what is now Galt, they were taken in hand by the late Absolom Shade, and from him bought the extensive property situated to the south of the town, just outside the corporation limits. Where the homestead now is, they erected the usual log house, and it was one of the fondest memories of the late William Dickson, that when he walked through on the track from Hamilton, on his way to Dumfries, which had then been bought by his father, late at night he reached Mr. Moffatt's log house, and the kindness he received from its inmates. The subject of this sketch, when he reached here, was about 19 years of age, and until his marriage, which took place about four years after the family came here, he resided continuously with his parents, although he was part of the time engaged in clearing the road through to Guelph, and Mr. Moffatt cut the first tree on the plot where now stands the city of Guelph. It is but a short time ago that we chronicled the celebration in that city wherein our old friend took an active part. After his marriage, his partner in life being Miss Jane Thompson, of Thompson's Corners, Beverly, Mr. Moffatt went to reside on the farm now owned and occupied by his son, Mr. Thos. Moffatt. There he resided until the death of his father, when he shortly after moved back to the old homestead, where he has since continuously resided. Mr. Moffatt was a consistent member of Knox Church, Galt.

    The family of the deceased are well known and respected in this section. The eldest son is Mr. Thos. Moffatt, of North Dumfries; Mr. John Moffatt, of Berlin; Mr. George Moffatt, of Manitoba; Mr. James Moffatt, who resides on the old homestead; and Mrs. George Goodall, of Paris; Mrs. Robt. Hay, of Maryboro; Mrs. Alex Cairnes, of Galt; and Miss Moffatt, wife resides with her brother James. Mrs. Moffatt, if we remember aright, died about ten years ago.

    Mr. Moffatt's funeral will take place on Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock, from his late residence to Galt Cemetery. One of four oldest residents, but few of the grey haired sires are left to accompany his remains to their last resting place. On the same road, where years ago they made the woods echo to the stroke of their axes, there are only left Mr. David Potter and Mrs. Archibald McPherson, and they are so fast yielding to the strokes of age, that their time amongst us cannot be long. "The old race had eeled awa'."

    _____________________

    The Guelph road gave employment to many of the settlers, and, enabled them to earn a little ready money, which was a very scarce commodity in those days. Not a few ox teams from Dumfries found employment in opening the road to, and clearing the site of the proposed village of Guelph, and among those who helped to "slash" out the timber along the line of road-which extended about sixteen miles through the bush--were Stephen Moffat, George Telfer and John Lockie, well-known Dumfries names.* By this enterprise, and others equally worthy of commendation, Mr. Galt became the founder of Guelph, and gave a much needed impetus to the settlement and development of the country.

    *How immeasurably the circumstances and comforts of the commu-nity have improved since the days when this road was constructed, may be known from the fact, that Mr. Moffatt and other workmen employed upon it, sometimes had to eat the fattest of pork, raw; their bread was baked in the hot ashes of their camp fires-the quality of which, therefore, needs no remark-and they drank, at their meals, hemlock tea! To make up for such fare-we suppose-a barrel of whiskey, with a tin cup attached, always stood at the roadside, and each workman or passerby was allowed to partake ad libitum.
