Notes:

King Street , North Side

Union Street to Pine Street.-A narrow, two story brick building occupied by Christian Heinrich, a labourer. The gable was toward King Street.

A one and one-half story frame building moved from Waterloo and erected opposite Mt. Hope Street, used as a dwelling. This house is still standing. Back of King Street on the north side there was a pine forest which was gradually lumbered off. The stumps were raised by men who made an occupation of doing this. They had a heavy timber tripod frame with a long screw working through a head mounted on the peak of the tripod. The screw was raised by means of a suitable heavy nut which had a lever arm, extending outward and downward, to which horses were hitched and moved in circular path around the tripod, thus turning the nut and gradually raising the screw. The bottom of the screw had a crosshead from which hung chains which were fastened round the roots of the great pine stumps, and thus gradually pulled the whole stump out of the ground.

At the corner of Pine Street a small frame building occupied by Mr. Hoffman, wood turner, who mostly made small household utensils.
