• Notes

  King Street, Kitchener The Victoria Block was considered one of the finest places along King Street. It was a two-story, brick building with a veranda rail at the top, along the King Street front. Next came a two storey brick building occupied by Wm. Gaul as tailor shop and agency for the Wanless Sewing machine ["Wanzer."]. Gaul had the first sewing machine that was brought to Berlin. It was operated in the show window of the store as a curiosity. With his sewing machine he did an extensive business. The machine had a heavy cast iron frame, was manufactured by the Wanless Co. [Wanzer] of Hamilton and brought to Berlin about 1861. REMINISCENCES OF BERLIN (NOW KITCHENER) By JACOB STROH Contributed by Joseph M. Snyder. Part I.
