• Notes

  Without attempting to mention all the more recent sketches of Hespeler history, the very interesting Illustrated Souvenir issued in 1901 by Mr. O. S. Eby (now Registrar of Waterloo County) then editor of the Hespeler Herald, should be mentioned. In the same year January 1st. 1901, the Galt Reporter devoted an eight page Souvenir Supplement to the newly incorporated town of Hespeler, which was edited by the local reporter, the late Thomas Arntfield. In this Reporter Supplement, Mr. R. H. Knowles, (now of Toronto) then Public School Principal, contributed an interesting article, headed "Old School Days" and Mr. J. D. Ramsay, the present Principal, outlined the municipal development of the place in an article headed "Hespeler As It Is. " Tenth Annual Report of the Waterloo Historical Society, 1922, Pages 213\endash 224
