Notes |
- Being then in a position to do his own sawing and mill work, Mr. Kribs was able to handle much larger jobs and in due course came to be known as one of the leading general contractors in this area. On some of his large jobs he sublet some of the work, Carpentry often to Archie Brydon, Masonry to Christian Pabst....Christian Pabst came here about 1860 to keep Hotel. He was then a man of about 28 years of age and mentally very active. He soon embarked on a bit of contracting and by 1868 became one of the best known Mason contractors in this area, employing a lot of men and executing large contracts. Some at least of the work he did for Jacob Hespeler seems to have been on a cost plus basis as is evidenced by his being credited with the time of a long list of men employed by him on the job. In addition to Masonry contracts, Mr. Pabst took on other work, the building and gravelling of roads etc., no doubt to keep his equipment and men busy.
He owned quarries which were under the supervision of his wife's brother, Christian Kirchener, an expert quarryman. Among the stone structures built by Mr. Pabst in the Village may be cited the United, the Evangelical and the old Presbyterian (now St. Mary's) Churches. The Bank of Montreal Building, Zryd's Hardware Store, both Johnston's and Saults' Blacksmith Shops (the latter then only one story) and several of the stone buildings at the Lower Mill.
