Notes:

David Rife from the Sunny Hill Farm and George C. Hammett were the milk peddlers in my early days. And anyone who has seen the amount of washing and scalding being done at Sunny Hill and the clean manner in which milk was there handled and all utensils kept, will realize the effort there made to give Hespeler people good milk. The same at Hammett's I have no doubt although I was never there myself.

Notes:

Some time prior to Sept. 12th, 1853, Thomas Hammett, an English Blacksmith, came here from Doon and started business probably in the Wiffler shop, and after 1853 he had his own shop on the lot at the corner of Queen and Adam until he moved to the "Hammett" farm in Waterloo Township where for years he did a bit of smithing, principally repair work, in a shop back near the Town line where evidences of it still remain.
